Your haircut is more than just a style, it’s your signature. The right cut can define your features, balance a high forehead, add volume to fine hair, and enhance your overall look when chosen to match your face shape and hair type. However, it’s not just about the cut, the salon, the stylist, and even the color; all play an essential role in creating a modern, flattering look.
To help you refresh your style this year, we've rounded up the 10 most requested haircuts of 2025:
The mullet is back, but with a twist. In its 2025 version, it’s longer, layered, and full of movement. Ideal for those who want to express boldness and personality, this cut blends edge and elegance in a way that works perfectly with longer hair.
Chic, timeless, and incredibly versatile, the short bob sits right at the jawline, enhancing facial features and flattering every face shape. According to Redken ambassador Juandiegoteo, it’s a safe and stylish choice for anyone looking to refresh their look with confidence.
The pixie cut is always a daring statement, but the 2025 version softens the edge with a little more length. With longer layers on top and at the sides, this cut elongates the face while keeping its bold, expressive vibe. A side-swept bang adds softness and movement for a balanced, elegant finish.
Inspired by French icons like Audrey Tautou and Audrey Hepburn, the garçon cut is perfect for wavy or curly hair. Its relaxed, tousled finish and subtle bangs flatter high foreheads and bring attention to the eyes. It’s playful, effortless, and oh-so-chic.
While shorter styles are trending, extra-long hair is making a luxurious comeback in 2025. Whether styled with subtle layers or worn sleek and straight, the key is keeping the ends healthy and shiny for a natural, polished look.
Want a subtle change without committing to a big chop? Long bangs are your go-to. They frame the face beautifully and grow out quickly, making them a low-risk, high-reward trend for 2025.
Light, voluminous, and feminine, the butterfly cut features cascading layers paired with curtain bangs. It works especially well on oval, square, or long face shapes. Depending on your hair’s texture and length, you can choose between 2 to 6 layers to create the perfect balance of movement and softness.
A daring blend of mullet and pixie, the mixie cut is for the fearless. With a touch of punk and plenty of edge, this textured style radiates personality and is perfect for those who want to stand out in any crowd.
Elegant yet practical, the chin-length bob is the sweet spot between sophistication and comfort. It creates a sculpted, lifted appearance that redefines the face while remaining easy to manage.
Layers never go out of style—and for good reason. They add movement, volume, and a youthful vibe to any length. This timeless cut proves you don’t have to sacrifice length for freshness, and with the right layering, it can be as sleek or as playful as you want.
Final Tip:
Whatever cut you choose, make sure it suits your features, personality, and lifestyle. And most importantly, trust a professional stylist who understands your hair type and helps bring your vision to life. A great haircut is not just a beauty upgrade, it’s a confidence boost.
