As 2025 approaches, it’s time to get excited about colour.

Heather Shaw, Creative Director of Advanced Education at Francesco Hair Salons, has shared her predictions for the hottest hair hues this year. 

The Verdict?

Blonde is officially back, bold as ever. And with Pantone’s Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse, influencing fashion and beauty trends alike, we’re in for a year of warm, wearable tones with plenty of personality.

Better yet, our 30% off February colour sale makes it the perfect time to dive into these stunning trends.

Pantone’s Mocha Mousse

Pantone’s Mocha Mousse is a rich, warm neutral that’s destined to dominate wardrobes, interiors, and hair. 

But this trend isn’t just about dying your hair Mocha Mousse (though we’d love to help if that’s your vibe). Instead, Heather predicts stylists will draw inspiration from its depth and warmth to create colours that enhance and complement it.

Imagine soft caramel highlights, deep brunette tones, or golden hues that balance perfectly with the mocha-inspired clothing shades hitting the high street.

Blonde Ambition: The Return of Bold Blondes

2025 is shaping up to be the year of the blonde. Whether it’s a complete transformation or a smart refresh, blondes are back and brighter than ever. 

Here’s where Heather sees the inspiration:

💁‍♀️ Madelyn Cline’s Blonde Evolution

The internet couldn’t stop buzzing about when Madelyn Cline ditched her brunette locks and became a stunning, honeyed blonde. Her transition shows just how transformative a good blonde can be—making this the year to take the plunge.

✨ Ariana Grande’s Glinda Blonde

Ariana Grande’s role as Glinda the Good Witch has delivered serious blonde inspiration. Her seamless, all-over platinum shade is the epitome of fairy-tale magic—polished and utterly flawless. If you’re dreaming of being a blonde bombshell, this is the way to do it.

📸 Kendall Jenner’s Blonde Moment

When Kendall Jenner steps out blonde, you know it’s a trend. Her transition back to blonde celebrates the return of high-maintenance blonde —but with a modern twist. Techniques like high-lift tints instead of bleach keep the process gentler, and clever in-between appointments (like 8-foil face-framing highlights) make it easier than ever to stay on top of your look.
