Latest Hairstyle Trends

As we step into 2025, this year is all about embracing your hair, no matter what color or texture! From fresh takes on classic styles like bangs and bobs, to innovative new trends like calico color and mullets--this year promises to be a celebration of creativity, individuality, and boldness. Whether you're looking to update your signature look or try something completely new, a fresh color, cut, or style is the perfect way to ring in the new year. In this blog, Gordon Salon explores the top hair trends you’ll be seeing everywhere this season!

Big Bouncy Blowouts

Bouncy, moveable hair is here to slay! From styling with overnight, heatless curls to using a heated iron or blow dry brush, big, luscious hair is a staple during the holiday season. To make your hair really pop, add bows, clips, and other fun accessories that are really trendy right now to adorn your flowy crown.

Bold Reds

As we start to lose sunshine in the winter, we naturally crave the warmth. What better place to seek some radiance than on your locks, right? Reds are slowly infiltrating the trend cycle once again. There’s a perfect red formula for every skin tone, and women everywhere are making the switch to this punchy, yet classy hue.

Soft Layered Bob

Bobs are here to stay in 2025! Following the footsteps of celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Sydney Sweeney, women everywhere are losing the long locks for an effortless style that coincides with the revival of trends from the 90s. Classified by a piecey perimeter and a voluminous style, this look will definitely turn heads in the new year.

Sabrina Blonde

Have you ever tried this one? Beloved, talented singer Sabrina Carpenter is known far and wide for her iconic style. From her perfectly crafted curtain bangs to her mod-Bridgitte Bardot-esque locks, Sabrina has created a personal style that is a callback to the 60s that’s been incorporated from her look all the way to her stage design. What sets her color apart from the crowd is the buttery, warm blonde Miss Carpenter dawns. And yes, we know she’s wearing extensions and at least one wig, however, we know the singer is truly a blonde queen above all else.
Color & Style

Lexa

Evanston

Calico Stripes

A homage to y2k: chunky highlights are back! Combining color blocking and the chunky highlight revival, these ribbons of color are sure to turn heads.

Harper

Algonquin

Diagonal Parts

90’s and 2000’s trends are in full swing, including the diagonal part. Diagonal parts, otherwise known as asymmetrical parts, is a fun way to switch up the conventional middle or side parting. Diagonal parts are very versatile and look beautiful in an up-style or look high-fashion when styled with your hair down.

Bangs

Who doesn’t love a bold fringe or a soft, wispy bang area? Much like a timeless bob, bangs will truly never fade away! A full curtain bang, soft and piecey bangs, and longer face-framing fringe are all hot and on-trend for 2025.

Burst Fade

Much like a lot of the items on this list, a fade is a classic and is still on trend for 2025. A burst fade is a fade that is bald around the ears, fading up into a short crop with traditionally longer pieces on the top of the head. The shape is reminiscent of a close-cropped mohawk.

Mullet Fade

The mullet fade is the longer version of the burst fade. A mullet is business in the front and party in the back, which is exactly what the mullet fade achieves. It is the skin around the ears, fading into shorter hair then blooms into pieces of fun texture in the front merging into flowing, shaggy locks in the back.
