Short, sharp, and undeniably chic, the jawline bob is making a significant comeback.
We used to [cut] just grazing the shoulder, but I have definitely seen people going bolder in the length department.

Curtain Bangs
Fringes are front and centre in 2025, with curtain bangs leading the charge. Inspired by the effortless style of French icons, these fringes frame the face on both sides, offering versatility and a touch of retro charm.
Caramel Blonde
According to hair colour guru John Alfred at Hershesons Fitzrovia, “softening blonde hair with freehand lowlights, toners and glosses will be all the rage. The culmination of all of these is the key to making hair look interesting and healthy.” Think Gisele Bündchen, Eva Mendes, Beyonce.
Bixie Cut
A hybrid of the bob and pixie, the “bixie” offers a playful yet edgy aesthetic. This cut provides the ease of short hair with the versatility of a bob. This evolution is influenced by London cool girls, such as Iris Law and content creator Alexis Foreman, who have been seen wearing the modern style.
Today’s pixie cut often features softer, more textured elements compared to its classic counterpart. face framing details like curtain bangs or fuller fringes adds a contemporary twist.

Natural Texture Embrace
Finally, there’s a growing movement towards celebrating natural hair textures. Stylists report an increase in clients seeking cuts that enhance their inherent curls and waves, promoting authenticity and ease.
90s Blowouts
The voluminous, bouncy blowouts reminiscent of the 1990s are back. Think Cindy Crawford’s iconic mane—big, bold, and full of life. This is the blow-dry to ask for.
Wispy Bangs
2025 is coming in with a bang! From curtain bangs to wispy bangs with loads of face framing layers followed by a supermodel 90s bouncy blowout.
Curtain bangs frame the face nicely, while wispy bangs give a more delicate and airier feel, also keeps shape and softness around the face when putting your hair up.

Soft Layering
Soft, subtle layers are being favoured to add movement and dimension without sacrificing length. This approach provides a modern update to classic long hairstyles. Sienna Miller esque.
Tanned Leather Blonde
“This shade combines elements of strawberry blonde with woody, rustic undertones. It emphasises dimension, depth, and texture. Inspired by the perfect tanned leather coat from Miu Miu”, says colourist Nicole Kahlani – Hershesons Fitzrovia.
