When summer is getting closer, one thing is clear: Waiting hair is not just a trend, it is the ultimate luxury of the season. The most coveted look of 2025 moves from excessively shaped styles and something more soft, easier and much more sustainable. Think of easy -to -do cuts, a sunlit color that is graceful, and the texture lived in the living experience, which can survive warmth and humidity. The guiding principle? Hair should move, breathe and be as effortless as summer.
It is essentially a return to natural beauty with a deliberate edge. The atmosphere is relaxed and yet sophisticated, from decayed shags and elegant, low ponies to sunbashed blonde and shiny brunettes. These are styles and cuts that do not need perfect weather, professional tools or constant maintenance – you will keep up with all your summer plans.
In order to use the relaxed aesthetics of the season, we curated the top hair trends in three categories: color, cut and style. Each one channeles maximum effects with minimal exertion, since the hair feels as carefree this summer as the coming days.
Hair colors for the summer of 2025
Bright sunshorm blonde
The sun blond is the summer shade: warm, golden and ultimately effortless. Soft highlights give brightness, while the diffuse lightness creates a sun -drenched glow through the ends. And a deeper root gives her that has one and more lived. The best thing about it? It grows well, which means that fewer visits to salon and less hard backlogs grow. Professional tip: Add a shiny shine every few weeks to keep it bright.
apricot
Meet the sweetest color of summer. Apricot consists of a warm, peach -colored color, which combines soft copper with hint of corals and gold. Its warm under tones make it flattered over a number of skin tones, and its soft color means that it fades grossly, which it surprisingly does. In addition, if it fades, it could even be slightly pink, depending on how much sun they soak.
Recession
An indicator of an impending recession? Of course a new hair color. RECENTION Bronde is low -maintenance as it sounds: a lived mixture of brunette and blonde, which is both chic and budget -friendly. Consider it the perfect middle ground: not too bright, not too dark and oh so cool.
Chocolate brown
Chocolate Brown celebrates a big comeback this summer. This dimensional color gives immediate depth and shine, which makes hair healthier and polished with zero strain. Since it is not dependent on lightning, it is gently on the hair and incredible maintenance doctor. Ask your colorist for a chocolate tone with a single process or switch your natural color open for a fresh finish with a koko-sound.
Roasted blonde
Simply put, roasted blonde is the cool answer to platinum. It is soft, sunny and so tasteful. It mixes beige, honey and golden tones for a multi -dimensional look that is less noticeable than icy blonde, but still provides a blow of brightness. To keep the sound balanced, ask for a melt of root with hand -painted highlights and refresh every six weeks with a shine.
