When it comes to hair trends, 2025 is shaping up to be the year of bold choices and nostalgic reinventions. While we’re only partway through the year, the trends taking shape show no signs of slowing down. Whether you're considering a major chop, a subtle update, or refresh to your accessories, this year’s hair trends have something for every texture, tone, and personality.
One classic cut — The Pageboy Bob — is proving to be summer's most unexpected comeback, creating a buzz for all things bob-related.
The Top Hair Trends of 2025
Classics Reimagined
This year is all about reinventing the icons. The sharp bob is making a strong return, but with fresh twists like flipped-out ends or a '90s stick-straight finish. Natural texture is being embraced more than ever, with less reliance on straightening treatments and more appreciation for curls, waves, and coils.
When it comes to color, expect to see timeless blondes, rich brunettes, and warm, dimensional tones like cappuccino blonde leading the way into summer.
Speaking of classics, the hair flip is making a bold return. This nod to the mod 60s has been modernized for 2025 and is one of the easiest styling updates of the year. Perfect for bobs and midi cuts, flipping your ends either inward or outward gives a polished and playful finish with just a little flick.
Every few years we see 70s trends rebound and this season the bohemian aesthetic we loved so much about that era is in full swing. Opt for shaggy layers, boho braids, and cheekbone-length cuts that feel carefree and intentional.
Accessories for Every Occasion
Hair accessories are back in a big way. Think claw clips, barrettes, and patterned scrunchies — functional pieces that upgrade your look instantly. They work especially well with half-up styles, buns, or quick ponytails, making them ideal for warmer months and on-the-go styling.
Fringes & Face-Framing Layers
Fringes are still trending. Whether it's curtain bangs, Birkin-style bangs, or wispy layers, face-framing elements remain in high demand. Styles like the butterfly cut continue to deliver volume, softness, and movement that flatter all face shapes and textures.
Boyish Crops: The Boy Bob & Pageboy Bob
The boyish crop is making its mark with updated bixie cuts and slightly longer, grown-out variations that highlight facial features and confidence. These styles are ideal for low-maintenance, high-impact results, and suit a wide variety of personal aesthetics.
The bob continues to reign as one of the most versatile and enduring styles of the year. Two key variations stand out:
The Boy Bob
Made notable by style muse Anine Bing, the boy bob is all about soft structure with personality. It allows for freedom in styling, natural texture, and a slightly undone finish that feels modern and editorial. Whether worn sleek or air-dried, the boy bob remains cool and effortless.
Pro Tip: Try a lightweight styling cream or pomade for added definition without weighing the hair down.
The Pageboy Bob
A standout trend for Summer 2025 (read more about it here), the Pageboy Bob is defined by its curved silhouette, inward-turned ends, and strategic layering. It’s the perfect cut for anyone seeking a structured yet soft shape that works for a wide range of textures and face shapes.
Why it works for summer:
- Keeps the neck cool and free.
- Requires minimal styling to look polished.
- Easily transitions from day to night, casual to formal.
