Hunting for a fresh new hairstyle for 2025? You’ve come to the right place! We’ve talked to the experts to bring you the hottest hair trends for 2025, plus the must-have tools to nail each look. Now is the time to upgrade your straightener, curler or hair dryer to create these easy-to-master trending hairstyles.
Ready for your new look? Look no further than these 2025 hair trends, and the styling tools that make every day a good hair day.
Tick off the essentials with a blow dryer, straightener and curling wand. These three amigos bring the volume and tame the frizz, all while protecting your hair. Looking to shave precious minutes off your morning routine? The latest hair dryers have the technology.
“The latest hair dryers feature ionic technology, which counteracts the water ions that cause frizzy hair. Gentle on your locks, this tech lets you dry hair quicker, at a lower temperature,” says Tracey Ellis, The Good Guys Buyer – Portable Appliances.
Meanwhile, a hair straightener is your passport to salon-quality slickness. Tame tresses with a quick pass through a VS Sassoon straightener with keratin-infused plates, or with the cordless flick of a Dyson straightener.
Love curls? Look for hair curlers with interchangeable barrels to create everything from beach waves to bouncy curls. For effortless styling, automatic curlers do the hard work for you.
“Great for curling newbies, automatic curlers safely heat and style sections of hair. They’re also highly customisable, with plenty of curling directions and heat settings to choose from,” says Tracey.

The top trending hairstyles for 2025 are all about hair that is uncomplicated and elevated, says Dean McDonald, Lead Creative Stylist at Fuchs Hair in Sydney. Below, Dean details the trends and reveals his styling tips and tricks.
For a top trending short hairstyle, look no further! “The bob is a timeless look, and in 2025 it’s going in two directions – short and sharp with bangs, or razor straight with shoulder grazing,” says Dean, of Fuchs Hair.
To Style At Home: Grab a straightener for straight and silky perfection, or try a hair dryer and round brush for 90s-inspired fullness.
Let the layers loose! The Butterfly cut (as seen on the likes of Sydney Sweeney and J-Lo) frames the face with a mix of short, medium and long layers. “This style adds dimension and can be adapted to nearly all hair textures. It’s the perfect low-maintenance, high-impact look,” says Dean.
To Style At Home: Switch between the many attachments of a multi-styler to lift, curl, blow dry and more.

Brunettes rejoice! The 2025 hair colour trends are about rich and velvety brown locks. “High shine and rich hair tones are on the rise. These dark tones will make blue, green or hazel eyes pop,” says Dean.
To Style At Home: Flaunt dark hair with beachy curls. Look to interchangeable curling barrels for different-sized curls.

Nothing says volume like curls! Embrace natural curls or create your own. “Curl by wrapping individual pieces around the curling wand. Be sure to alternate curling directions to pump up the fullness,” says Dean.
To Style At Home: Grab that curling wand and get to work! Got natural curls? Look for a hair dryer with a diffuser attachment to tame the frizz.
VS Sassoon Pocket Rocket Mini Curler
Get big and get bouncy with a 90s-style blowout! “It’s a super versatile style that suits any layered or mid-length cut,” says Dean. “Spritz hair with a volumising spray to start, then finish with a dry shampoo to keep it textured.”
To Style At Home: Simultaneously lift, curl and dry with a volumising brush that’ll leave your hair sleek and frizz-free.
