Half-up, half-down ‘do

While this hairstyle may seem like an ideal ‘do for long hair, it actually works amazingly well for medium length hair, too. Also suitable for almost any hair type, this hybrid hairstyle can easily be customised with the addition of some stunning hair accessories – think dazzling hair clips, floral bands, or even glittering hair studs.

Now, if accessories aren’t quite your thing, you can still give this look an added element of interest, simply by incorporating a couple of side braids into your look! Just weave a small 3-strand plait on either side of your head, bringing them to meet at the back and secure with a hairband. It’s quick, easy, and you’ll look effortlessly styled!

Bridal bun

When it comes to rocking a classic style for your big day, many brides opt for a simple bun. Bun styles are easy to create, elegant, and they tuck all your tresses neatly away – so what’s not to love?

Whether you choose a tight ballerina bun or a slightly more intricate design, this wedding hairstyle for medium hair is sure to look great on your special day. Once you’ve decided on your bridal bun, just remember to mist it with the TRESemmé Ultimate Hold Hairspray, to ensure that it stays put all day and keeps those flyaways at bay!

Loose waves

Want to wear your medium length hair down for your wedding, but want something a little special? Then how about working some loose waves into your mane? Not only do waves look stunning with any hair type or colour, but we also love how this wedding hairstyle can be personalised to include cute braids or pinned back sides.

Editor’s tip: When using heated styling tools to create your waves, remember to use a good heat protectant, like the Toni&Guy Heat Protection Mist. Then, finish off the look with a spritz of the TRESemmé Catwalk Collection Make Waves Creation Hairspray, to set your ‘do in place!
