The runway is showcasing exciting hair color trends that promise to dominate the scene. Here are some of the standout hair trends we are seeing for 2025

*Retro Revival*

This nostalgia trend is fun, bringing back vibrant colors reminiscent of the 80’s and 90’s. Expect to see bold neon shades like bright greens, yellows, and pinks making a comeback, often paired with vintage-inspired cuts and styles. We are seeing this look popular in bridal trends.

*Soft and Subtle Ombre*

The ombre’ technique will see shift towards softer, more subtle transitions between colors. Blending earthy tones or pastels into natural hair color for a more understated look. The idea is to create a soft gradient that enhances the hair’s natural tone. For those clients who like low maintenance, this is it.

* Muted Tones*

As a counterbalance to the bright and bold hues, muted tones will also gain popularity. Shades like dusty rose, muted sage, and soft taupe will offer chic, sophisticated look without being overpowering. Something that can be an added service in-between color appointments.

*Bold Rooted Colors*

Rooted colors have been around for a while, but will continue to stay on trend. Allowing for a low maintenance look without the upkeep we see in more dramatic looks. Lets hope we don’t see box dyes for this one.

*Bioluminescent Colors*

This is a futuristic trend that is amazing in our industry. Emerging technology in hair color is expected to introduce bioluminescent colors that subtly glow in low light, colors that shift and change under different lighting conditions. Creating a whimsical and ethereal look. So, if your like my assistant and go to a rave every weekend, you’ll love this look!

*Textured Highlights*

The trend of adding textured highlights will take center stage ,with styles using techniques that create a more natural sun-kissed look effect. This is s look we’ve been seeing in the salon for a while and it looks like it’s here to stay.

*Color Infusion*

Color infusion techniques will be popular, where vibrant colors are added in small doses throughout rather than all- over shade. A playful multidimensional look without overwhelming the base color. I like extensions for this look, an easy add on service.

* The hair trends and colors expected for 2025 reflect a blend of nostalgia, individuality, and innovation. from retro-inspired bright hues to soft ombe’ and customization for creative expression. As we move into 2025, lets create personal style and bold experimentation in hair trends! See you in the beauty world!
