Summer Hair Trends 2025
By Paul Corbett, Director of Advanced Education, Francesco Hair Salons
Whether you prefer something soft and wearable or you’re ready to try something a little more editorial, this summer’s hair trends are all about shape, individuality, and understated impact. Here are my top seasonal picks, along with a few styling tips and product recommendations to keep your hair looking its best throughout the warmer months.
1. The Pixie Crop
Celebrity inspiration: Emma Stone, Zendaya
This flattering cut is all about soft edges and versatility. Whether you opt for a sleek, polished finish or something more textured and tousled, the pixie works beautifully with both razors and scissors. Add a side-swept or centre-parted fringe to keep it feeling fresh and modern.
Styling Tips
Use Sebastian Texturizer for flexible hold and movement, and Sebastian Craft Clay to create definition where needed.
2. The Curtain Crop
Celebrity inspiration: Julia Fox, Pixie Geldof
With its relaxed centre parting and easy styling, the curtain crop is the epitome of effortless cool. Let it air dry for a soft, natural look or use a round brush to add volume and shape for a subtle nod to retro styles like the Korean Boy cut or a refined ‘80s finish.
Styling Tips
Boost body with Wella System Professional Volumise Shampoo, and add structure using Sebastian Gel Forte.
3. The Jellyfish Cut
(also known as the Japanese Hime or Princess Cut)
Celebrity inspiration: Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish
This dramatic, fashion-forward style features distinct face-framing sections cut to the cheekbone or jawline. It’s striking and surprisingly adaptable—keep it sleek and minimalist or add textured layers for a more avant-garde silhouette. Works beautifully with natural curls too.
Styling Tips
Use Wella Professionals Ultimate Smooth Shampoo, Conditioner and Oil to enhance shine and control.
4. The Chin-Length Bob
Celebrity inspiration: Lily Collins, Gracie Abrams
A timeless classic with a modern twist. This ultra-short bob falls just below the jawline, tapering slightly toward the front to draw attention to the chin. It looks stunning worn straight, but can also be styled with soft waves for a relaxed yet refined feel. A single, rich hair colour really brings out the precision of the cut.
Styling Tips
Tame frizz and smooth the hair with Sebastian Taming Elixir, then add a spritz of Shine Define Spray for a touch of gloss and hold.
5. Lived-In Layers with Heavy Fringe
Celebrity inspiration: Tracee Ellis Ross, Daisy Edgar-Jones
A nod to the supermodel styles of the ‘90s, this layered look brings volume, texture and movement. With shorter layers at the front and longer lengths at the back, it’s flattering and full of personality. The full fringe is versatile—wear it swept, parted or bold. Ideal for naturally textured hair, or styled smooth for a more polished finish.
Styling Tips
– For curls: Use Briogeo Curl Charisma Leave-In Defining Crème and Frizz Control Gel for definition and hold.
– For a blow-dried finish: Apply Briogeo Farewell Frizz Blow Dry Perfection & Heat Protectant Cream to protect and smooth.
With the right products and a bit of expert know-how, your summer hair can look as good as it feels.
