2025 Springtime Hair Trends We Love

These springtime hair trends are fun, fresh and fierce! Which one will you try?

By Lora O’Brien

I don’t know about you, but as soon as the sun starts to shine, I’m thinking of ways that I can reinvent my look. There’s something about the arrival of a new season that feels like the perfect time for a change. And what better way to boost your confidence than by swapping up your hairstyle?

When it comes to switching things up, some of us want to try a new colour, while others prefer to change the style completely. Whether you want to channel your inner French girl with the perfect bob, are looking for stylish and low-maintenance waves, or are hoping to make a statement with your hair clippers and a fierce buzz cut, there is no better time to refresh your look than the changing of the seasons.

Need some inspo? Below, I’ve found springtime hair trends that will have you looking and feeling like a new woman!

10 Hair Trends For Spring

Springtime Hair Trends We Love

1. French Girl Bobs

What’s the difference between a French bob and a normal bob, you may be asking? Well, a French bob is similar to a one-length short bob, but sans any harsh bluntness. It just focuses on your natural texture and easy styling to achieve the signature nonchalance of French style. It’s made to hit just at the jawline or above to flatter the face – especially your cheekbones! This is a classic style that’s particularly trending for this spring/summer season.

2. Wide Headbands

Bye Bye, Blair Waldorf! The padded Alice headband has had its time. But this spring we’ll be seeing wider, more Boho or athletic styles that are just as at home on the beach as they are in the gym. We love that this is a five-second style booster for truly all hair types, textures, and lengths. Plus, it’s a quick fix to conceal greasy hair or to hide roots. Winning!

3. Elevated Ponytails

Thanks, Ariana, for making this a thing! The elevated ponytail is easy for anyone with long hair to do. Just brush your hair up, up, up, and lift that ponytail, tying it at the base of the crown rather than the base of the neck. Then slick back whatever hair is remaining on your head with a good gel. Done!

Not got long hair? No problem! There are lots of clip in ponytails, like this one below, you can try.

It’s an elegant look that’s ideal for any situation, from work to weddings.

4. Long, Choppy Layers

Another 90s-inspired trend for the year ahead is the comeback of long layers. Adding layers to your hair will boost volume and even make thin hair look thicker, while it gives some movement for thicker hair.

Throwing in some layers is also a great way to reinvent your hair without committing to something more drastic. This is a look you’ll often find paired with sweeping or curtain bangs this year.

5. Bangs Of All Kinds

Some of us have had a bad experience with bangs. Hands up if you’ve ever stupidly cut in our own, ha! Some of us are daunted by the idea of them because they’re a bit of a commitment and the grow-out process can be a little awkward. If that’s the case, curtain bangs could be for you!

This style is super popular now, and frankly, always. It’s the perfect way to frame the face without opting for a full, blunt style. And the best part is that if you want to style your bangs differently, you can just tuck them behind your ear to switch up your style.

If you’re looking to go blonde naturally, did you know that henna will work on lighter hair? Yep, seriously!

6. Iridescent Blondes

Nothing says ‘summer’s coming’ quite like fairytale blonde hair. But while previous years have favoured more honeyed hues, this year it’s all about iridescent tones. Think of a shimmering pearl.

Instead of harsh blonde hair, it’s being given lustre thanks to the metallic finish to platinum shades. Also known as pearl blonde, this is perfect if you’re looking to go blonder but also want to glow, literally.

7. Side Parts With Accessories

Grunge hair lovers, rejoice! The side part is back. Yes, that’s right: after years of middle parts, (thanks, Kardashians!) we can once again part our hair to the side. But this time, the hair swept over to the side is paired with a hair clip or accessory. Beautiful!

One of the best springtime hair trends for: The beauty of a side part is that they pretty much go with all hair lengths and styles. What’s not to love, right?

8. Rich Brunettes

In terms of trending spring hair colours, rich, warm brunette hair is IT for spring this year! And there are so many shades to choose from! Think: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, espresso, mahogany, or chestnut.

There is the right shade of brown to suit all skin tones and style. It’s super flattering for everyone, really. Looking for the best natural hair dyes to get the shade of your dreams? Check these out!

9. Beach Bobs

Sure, we all know about beachy waves. And that we can achieve that look for long hair with a good salt spray. But this season is all about shorter looks: namely, the beach bob.

This haircut is designed to be effortless and can be worn with a middle part or tousled side part. It’s also long enough to be pulled into an updo, like a ponytail or low bun. It looks best if your hairdresser can create angles with face-framing layers, as the top layers and texture will keep it from falling flat.

10. Ultra Short Cuts

Another of the springtime hair trends we love is the pixie cut. I mean, what better way to shed the last year than by cutting off your locks? Whether you’re going from long hair to something drastic, or are taking your pixie cut even shorter, ultra-short hairstyles are going to be big this year. And if you want a buzz cut, you do you, boo!
