To color your hair is probably going to be forever hip and in style. And all of the different styles that you can choose from, you can probably never run out of options and variety. But there are certain styles that just look amazing on a particular type of hair color. So today we are going to show which styles are perfect for the ladies with red hair and red highlights. Here are the top hairstyles for a medium length red hair.
Messy Waves
If you have a day off and you are going to the beach for example – this is the best style you could get. Just take the curling iron and make yourself some beach waves all over the medium length hair. And then just go through it with your hands a few times in order to achieve that messy, careless look. This messy yet stylish look will highlight the various shades of the red color in the hair. If you want to make it even more special make a twist on the hair, starting from the top and going all the down to behind the ear and pin it with a bobby pin.
Loose Curls
This is one of the simpler looks but still very classy and elegant and it looks amazing on a medium length hair. Start by curling your hair with the iron but don’t start from the top, start from the middle and go down from there. That gives you different options afterwards. You can either wear it loose like that, or you can part it midways or even give it a side swipe. It will look amazing either way.
Side Swept
This one is definitely a head-turner. In this more formal look you have to start curling the hair at the bottom and going all the way to the top. Once you’ve done that, take the whole thing and brush it to one side, then pick up the hair spray and spray it up good in order to stay in place for as long as you need it to. If you still have doubts after spraying it or your hair like most of us has its own opinion on things you can even add some bobby pins to secure its position. And if you have bangs the best thing is to straighten them because that way the hair will look as it has much more volume.
The Top Knot
This one is also known as the savior look. If you are out of time for preparation or something with your style went wrong, this is the trick that will get you out of the situation. What you have to do is simple. First, get all of your hair up and tie it into a high ponytail, then brush a little through it so it can get some texture. After that you have to tie the hair up on the top and then roll the rest of the ponytail around the knot and if needed pin with some bobby pins in order to stay in place.
Half Up Half Down
This is a very cool and fresh style and yet very simple to do. And the best news is that it fits perfectly with a medium length hair. Here you have to give the hair more volume, so the best thing to do is to blow it dry. Then use your hands and go through it and take some hair from the crown section and tie it into a knot and just leave the other part loose. It is so simple and yet it has a great result at the end. You can spice it up even more if you pin the knot with a crazy looking, fun hair tie.
Braidband
In order to pull this one off you need to do the following: First, comb the hair back and tie it up. Then pick a rather thick section of hair from behind the ear and start braiding it all the way down. When you’re done with the braid, take it across the head all the way to the other ear and pin it. If you want a bigger effect /and quite frankly if you have the time and patience/ you can do the same on the other side. After that just comb your hair one more time and maybe put some spray to hold it.

Scarf it Up
This one is very easy to do and is still pretty classy and elegant. You just need to comb your hair backwards, then, get the scarf and fold it a few times in order to get the thickness you prefer. Place the scarf at the bottom of the head and take it through the back of the ears and tie it up at the crown. After that just comb the hair once more and you’re ready to go.
Pompadour
Here’s how you can achieve this look. Take the whole front section of the hair and go ahead and tease it. Then you need to smoothen it up and precisely pull it back to pin it down. Comb the rest of the hair down and let it loose.
