5 Sleek Hairstyles To Try If You Have Mid-Length Hair

Having mid-length hair can sometimes feel like being neither here nor there. Flowing braids aren't possible because that's long hair territory. And bobs aren't either because they're too short. So what hairstyles should mid-length haired girls try then? Sleek ones, we say. Since slicked back hair doesn't really have length restrictions, it's ideal for medium length in so many ways. Take a look!

If you think ponytails are solely reserved for gym class, it's time to think again. When you give an ordinary high ponytail a sleekly pulled back touch, it's good enough for your next club night while still staying fuss-free.

3. The pulled back low bun

Is there anything more elegant that a bun hairstyle? A slicked back bun, that's what. While the crown area is cleanly kept without a single hair out of place, there's action at the base with a knotted finish. Business in the front, party in the back!

4. The slick braided ponytail

Just when you thought a ponytail couldn't get any cooler, the braided ponytail came along. Like its cousin, the high ponytail, it lends plenty of height and is a sporty meets chic look. Thanks to its braided finish, it's also got more texture and glamour.
