It’s a familiar story and it usually starts like this: you swap sheer fabrics for plushy layers with cozy textures, dewy summer makeup gives way to earthy tones, and beachy waves suddenly don’t fit into the picture anymore. Sad, we know. But it will be all the more exciting to go back to them in spring. And now it’s time for a cool seasonal update with stylish haircuts and the newest hair colors of winter hair trends 2025.
Textured haircuts are the easiest way to transition from beachy waves to something more season-appropriate. Shaggy layers create natural volume, which can be especially appealing in the colder months when hair tends to feel flatter and lifeless. Textured styles – think a shag or a wolf cut – are easy to maintain and don’t require frequent trips to the salon.
Cutting layers for the winter season covers two bases with one snip. It helps you get rid of split ends that frequently appear after sun and salty water exposure and gets you a lively, voluminous look for the festive season.
Deep, all-over shades of brown are at the height of popularity and we can see why. They are a picture of health, super glossy, and refreshingly low-maintenance. Cool skin tones will look ravishing with mocha, mushroom brown, or espresso hues and warmer complexions will regain their glow with caramel or rich chocolate brown.
Thick bangs can be a hassle in the summer with sweat ruining your perfectly styled fringe. So if you were eyeing those lush, heavy bangs, now is the right time. They are a great way to upgrade long hair without losing an inch of length.
With your tan vanishing with each shower, it’s high time to bring more richness into your hair. Rich terra-copper hue wins over last year’s favorite cowboy copper and cherry coke slowly gives way to saturated Rioja red tones.
Normally, when we think about pixies, the first thing that comes to our mind is getting a big chop. But growing out a pixie can be as liberating. Besides, it’s a great basis for the super trendy La Dolce Vita crop.
This new variation of the timeless bob hairstyle is a natural progression from the flippy bob that was trending earlier this year. Go full steam ahead with a pronounced bell shape or get a subtle curve for a softer silhouette. The best part? This shape pairs amazingly with chunky winter clothes.
Tasteful and understated, heritage blonde is the answer to our prayers about a low-maintenance blonde shade. Because it creates a very natural, lived-in appearance, frequent salon touch-up sessions become obsolete. It’s a multi-tonal hair color, with a mix of deeper and lighter shades, and will suit every skin color out there.
