From glossy, minimalist colour to the return of bold natural curls, the hair trends for 2025 are all about texture, shine and effortless styling. Whether you’re embracing your natural waves or experimenting with face-framing fringes, we’ve rounded up this year’s standout looks—and the salon-grade products that help you recreate them at home.
1. Face-Framing Fringes: The Soft Shaping Trend
Fringes are back with a fresh twist for 2025: longer, face-framing layers that bring structure and softness in equal measure. This style works across all hair lengths and adds instant cool-girl energy.
How to style it:
Use the ghd Helios Professional Hairdryer paired with the ghd Ceramic Radial Brush (Size 4) to create that voluminous, salon-quality finish. Lock in shape and hold with Bumble and Bumble Spray de Mode Hairspray for a natural, flexible finish that moves with you.
2. Barely-There Waves: The Undone Texture Everyone Wants
If 2025 had a signature texture, this would be it: soft, touchable waves that look like you’ve just stepped off the beach. Barely-there waves offer a laid-back, sun-kissed vibe with a polished twist.
How to get the look:
Start with Amika Blockade Heat Defense Serum to protect your hair while styling. Then use the ghd Wave Triple Barrel Waver to create gentle bends through the lengths. Finish with ghd Curls Gone Wild Curl Texturising Spray for hold and beachy separation.
3. XXL Curls: Go Big or Go Home
This year, natural texture is front and centre—and the bigger, the better. XXL curls are all about volume, bounce and embracing your curl pattern in all its glory.
How to define your curls:
Start with the Davines LOVE Curl Duo to gently cleanse and hydrate. Define and hold curls with Aveda Be Curly Advanced Coil Definer Gel. Finish with Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil to add shine and seal in moisture for frizz-free results.
4. Brondes: The Colour Between Blonde and Brunette
Neither full blonde nor fully brunette, the bronde trend blends the best of both worlds. This low-maintenance colour flatters all skin tones and adds warmth and depth.
Keep it fresh:
Use the Davines Heart of Glass Blonde Duo to maintain tone and prevent brassiness. The Milk_Shake Incredible Milk offers 12 benefits in one spray, protecting and hydrating daily. For deeper repair, use the K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask weekly to revive and maintain colour-treated hair.
5. Minimalist Colour: Shine Over Shade
One solid colour, lots of shine. Minimalist shades are simple but statement-making—as long as your hair stays glossy, smooth and frizz-free.
How to protect and shine:
Start with the Kevin.Murphy Everlasting.Colour Duo to lock in tone and keep your colour vibrant. Follow with Color Wow Extra Strength Dream Coat Anti-Frizz Treatment for humidity-proof glass shine. Finish with Davroe Argan Oil Instant Treatment for a light-reflecting finish that boosts colour depth.
