Top Hair Trends for 2025

The Styles & Colours Set to Dominate The Year

As we step into 2025, fresh hair trends are emerging, bringing a mix of effortless, layered styles and bold yet wearable colours. Whether you’re looking to refresh your current look or embrace something entirely new, this year’s biggest hair trends cater to a range of hair textures and personal styles.

At DKUK Salon in Peckham, we stay ahead of the latest trends while ensuring every client’s look is tailored to their unique hair type and lifestyle. If you're considering a change, now is the perfect time to book a consultation and explore your options with our expert stylists.

Layered Hairstyles for Movement and Volume

Layering continues to be a key trend in 2025, offering movement, shape, and a fresh, lived-in feel to every haircut. Whether you have long hair and want soft, flowing layers or prefer a shorter, choppy style with added texture, layers create a flattering and versatile finish.

For curly and coily hair textures, well-placed layers enhance natural volume and define shape while reducing bulk in the right areas. Working with your natural pattern is key, ensuring that your hair moves effortlessly without unnecessary weight or frizz.

Deep Brunettes

Brunettes are taking centre stage this year, with deeper, richer shades adding dimension and depth. Think espresso, dark chocolate, and cool ash brunettes that offer a sophisticated, glossy finish. These shades work beautifully for anyone looking to add shine and a touch of luxury to their hair.

For those wanting a softer, multi-tonal effect, rich caramel or warm mocha highlights can create a sun-kissed look with natural depth. Balayage and subtle colour melts allow brunettes to stay low-maintenance while keeping the hair looking fresh and full of life.

Creative Colour

Bright and bold colours of recent years are giving way to more muted tones, whilst still working with surprising placement and colour combinations. This shift, we believe, has bridged the gap between the two extremes of bright and bold and natural tints, allowing a new normal to emerge.  

Calico hair, as seen below, has been super popular as it perfectly embraces unusual combinations of hues and placement while using a colour palette taken directly from an animal (cat).

We love this here at DKUK since it allows real, unpackaged, individuality.

Hairstyles That Complement Every Texture

2025’s hair trends celebrate all textures, from sleek straight styles to voluminous curls.

For those with natural curls and coils, the focus is on defining shape and working with the hair’s texture rather than against it. Rounded cuts, long-layered curls, and sculpted Afros create effortless, statement-making styles. Hydration and curl-enhancing products will be key in keeping curls looking fresh and full of bounce.

If your hair is naturally straight or wavy, effortless, undone styles are continuing to trend, with soft bends and relaxed finishes. The classic bob remains popular, whether it’s chin-length or grazing the shoulders, and looks stunning when styled sleek or tousled.
