The summer of 2025 is leaning into wearable haircuts that balance style and simplicity. Forget the elaborate “glass hair” tutorials—this season is about cuts that look enviable at the salon and are easy to maintain between appointments. From layered bobs to lived-in growers, here are six trending looks you can actually rock every day this summer:
1. The Side-Part Bob: Sleek, Simple, Stylish
The textured side-part bob has dominated red carpets and street style this June. It’s a timeless cut that frames the face beautifully with minimal effort—ideal for slightly wavy or straight hair. Stylists note that side parts add depth and sophistication instantly, and the length (chin to shoulder) suits most head shapes.
Styling is a breeze: just towel-dry, apply a warm-protective spray, and give it a light blast with your dryer. Add a smoothing serum at the ends, or tousle for a relaxed finish. Bonus: it grows out gracefully, so fewer salon visits are required for upkeep.
2. The “Everything Cut”: Jennifer Aniston’s Glow-Up
The “Everything Cut”—made popular by Jennifer Aniston’s latest Instagram reveal—is a collarbone-length style with light layers that move, breathe, and shine. It offers versatility, looking polished if blow-dried or effortlessly cool when air-dried with texture spray.
Thanks to its classic length and blended layering, this cut flatters nearly anyone and adjusts to both casual and polished looks. Invest in a round brush and choose quality heat protectant—your style stays salon-fresh until the next wash.
3. Rihanna-Inspired Messy Updo
Following Rihanna’s messy updo at a Dior event in June, this relaxed style is now everywhere—even beyond red carpets. The look features a bun with loose strands and soft curtain bangs, bringing effortless volume and charm to heat-free styling.
To recreate: pull back hair loosely, secure with pins, and leave strands around your face unstyled. Add a touch of dry shampoo at the roots for texture, and you’ve got an easy, heat-free look perfect for humid weather or breezy weekends.
4. French Bob: Sofia Richie Grainge’s Statement Cut
In early summer, Sofia Richie Grainge premiered her modern French bob—jaw-length with blunt ends and soft movement. Great for sleek or wavy hair, this cut is a chic refresh that requires only minimal styling.
Keep it simple: smooth out with a flat iron, then finish with shine serum. The result? Bold, elegant, and practically maintenance-free. It’s a perfect mix of confidence and cool with a versatile presence.
5. Grown-Out Pixie: Emma Stone’s Playful Style
Emma Stone’s updated pixie — a textured, grown-out crop that showed up on Jimmy Kimmel in June — brought a fresh take on short hair. With soft layers and slightly longer fringe, this easycut offers a breezy, confident look for those who want low maintenance without sacrificing flair.
Achieve it with a dab of texturizing paste and gentle finger tousle. It’s bold, youthful, and painless to style—ideal for hot mornings, busy schedules, and all-day wear.
6. Shoulder-Length Layers with Curtain Framing
June also saw the rise of shoulder-length cuts with subtle layers and curtain-style face framing. This grew-in style is perfect for those growing out bangs or trims, offering movement and shape without drastic change.
Echoing the 90s, but with modern polish, this style works for anyone aiming for a fuss-free update. Keep layers soft with leave-in conditioner, and let your natural texture shine. It’s low-effort, low-risk, and high-styled.
Summer 2025 shows that hair trends don’t need to be complicated to look chic. These six cuts—side-part bobs, gentle layers, relaxed updos, and updated crops—are easy to style, low-maintenance, and universally flattering. They’re the kind of cuts you wake up with and still look good in by evening.
