Ultra Short Bobs
Bobs have been the go-to short haircut this year, but next year, we’re seeing even shorter styles. Celebrity stylist Jacob Rozenberg says people are going bold with chin-length bobs for that chic French girl vibe.
Side Parts
Millennials, rejoice! Side parts are making a comeback, and stylist Lacy Redway is all for it. She’s excited to see side-swept bangs and playful flip-over styles, especially with curly hair. Rozenberg suggests pairing a side part with a big, bouncy blowout for extra flair.
Fairy Waves
Long hair is stunning, but for 2025, Jenny Cho recommends adding some fairy-like waves for a romantic touch. Just look at Havana Rose Liu’s gorgeous cascading waves for inspo!
Jane Birkin Bangs
Bangs have been trending, but Cho says Jane Birkin-inspired bangs are the next big thing. Think modern full fringes like Daisy Edgar-Jones, with layered bangs for a fresh look. A texture spray can help give your bangs that lived-in vibe.
‘90s “It” Girl Blowout
The ‘90s beauty era is back, and we’re loving it! Both Rozenberg and Redway are excited about those big, effortless blowouts that scream supermodel chic. Rozenberg suggests using a thickening spray for added volume.
Rounded Bob
To give a blunt bob a little upgrade, try soft, rounded edges. Redway loves this look and recommends using heat protection spray and mousse for styling. Finish with a flat iron for a soft bend at the ends.
Braids
Braids are set to be everywhere, whether you go for microbraids or twists. Redway predicts we’ll see more braided styles for natural hair. To keep your braids looking fresh, use a frizz-free mousse and a moisturizing scalp oil.
Face-Framing Layers
These classic layers work for all hair types, and both Cho and Rozenberg are big fans. When in doubt, go for face-framing layers!
Center Parts
Not into side parts? No problem! Rozenberg says center parts are here to stay, so you can rock that look all year long.
Graduated Bobs
Graduated bobs are all about that face-framing cut that’s shorter in the back and longer in the front. Cho loves this style and suggests using a styling cream for added texture and shine.
Perfect Curls
Think Shirley Temple curls but with a modern twist. Rozenberg says these perfectly coiffed curls are great for more dressed-up occasions. A good hairspray will help keep them in place and shiny.
Brushed Out Waves
If you prefer a more laid-back vibe, Rozenberg loves brushed-out waves. They’re effortlessly chic and full of volume. Just make sure to use a good shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair healthy.
So there you have it! Get ready to try out these fun hair trends in 2025!
