This trend hairstyle combines a medium layer cut with a transparent cyan greige hair color.
The face-framing layers create movement and dimension, while the cool-toned greige color reduces unwanted redness and gives the hair a soft, airy finish.
The edgy layered silhouette brings out your individuality and creates a modern, sophisticated impression.

Style Points
01|Edgy Layered Silhouette
Layers are added from around the face through the ends to create lightness and dimension.
Even medium-length hair, which can sometimes look heavy, becomes more stylish and modern with a sharper layered shape.
This design is perfect for those who want a hairstyle that feels effortless but still has a strong fashion-forward impression.
02|Transparent Cyan Greige Color
Cyan greige is a cool-toned hair color that helps reduce redness and creates a clear, transparent finish.
The color is not too dark and not too bright, giving the hair a refined balance.
It also enhances the movement of the layer cut, making the texture and flow of the hair look even more beautiful.
03|Face-Framing Design
The face-framing layers are adjusted according to bone structure, face shape, and personal style.
By creating natural movement around the face, this design helps soften the facial impression and makes the side profile look more beautiful.
It is also a great option for guests who want to change their look without cutting too much length.
04|A Mature Look with Effortless Edge
This style is not overly sweet or too casual.
It has a slightly mode-inspired, urban mood while still feeling natural and wearable.
For guests who want a medium layer cut that reflects their individuality and matches a stylish fashion sense, this design is highly recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can I get cyan greige hair color without bleaching?
A. It depends on your current hair color, hair history, and natural redness.
If your hair is already light enough, it may be possible to create a soft cyan greige tone without bleaching. However, if your hair is dark or has strong redness, lightening the base may be necessary to achieve a clearer, more transparent color.
During the consultation, we will check your hair condition and suggest the best color plan for you.
Q. Will a medium layer cut make my hair spread out?
A. Not necessarily.
The result depends on where and how the layers are placed. By checking your hair texture, hair amount, and natural movement, we can add layers only where needed.
This helps create lightness and movement while keeping the overall shape controlled and easy to manage.
Q. Do face-framing layers look good when the hair is tied up?
A. Yes.
Face-framing layers can be designed so that soft pieces naturally remain around the face when the hair is tied up.
This creates an effortless look and makes simple hairstyles, such as a low ponytail or casual updo, look more refined.
Q. How does cyan greige fade over time?
A. Cyan greige usually fades into a soft beige or greige tone while keeping redness under control.
The exact fading process depends on your hair texture, previous color history, and how light your hair is before coloring.
We adjust the color formula so that the fade-out process also looks beautiful.
