Hair Trends We Loved in 2025 and What’s Coming in 2026
At Love Hair, we’re always listening closely to our clients. Every consultation and every conversation in the chair helps us shape what we offer and how we grow. Over time, certain looks stand out. These are the styles that have truly resonated. They are the ones clients return to, ask for again and recommend to their friends.
In this article, we’re sharing the key 2025 hair trends that have stayed strong. From short haircuts to long hairstyles, and hair extensions to natural texture, these looks continue to inspire. We are also looking ahead to 2026 hair trends and how we are preparing for what our clients will want next.

Celebrating 2025 Hair Trends
The 2025 hair trends were all about individuality, health and texture. This year brought a softer edge to styling, with movement and roundness replacing heavy, blunt looks. Clients were ready to experiment, and our stylists delivered.
Short Haircuts Had a Moment
Short haircuts came back strong. From precision bobs to textured pixies, these styles offered a fresh, clean shape that worked beautifully in Singapore’s climate. Many of our clients told us they felt lighter and more confident with less hair. With the right styling, short haircuts can be just as versatile as long ones.
Whether it was a sleek micro bob or a tousled lob, short hair made a bold return in 2025. These cuts require thoughtful shaping and a good maintenance plan, and our stylists loved guiding clients through that process.

Long Hairstyles with a Softer Touch
Long hairstyles remained popular too, but they weren’t the one-length styles we saw a few years ago. In 2025, it was all about shape, softness and movement. Clients wanted light layers that worked with their natural texture. Adding curtain bangs or soft face-framing pieces gave long hair more personality without sacrificing length.
Hair extensions played a big part in transforming long hairstyles this year. Whether someone wanted to add volume, thicken the ends or create a dramatic length change, we used high-quality hair extensions to personalise the look and keep it natural. More clients also chose to use extensions for trying a fringe or adding pops of colour without committing to permanent changes.

Blonde Took a Backseat to Natural Tones
One of the biggest 2025 hair trends in colour was the move away from ultra-bright blonde. Clients were drawn to slightly darker, monochromatic blondes, shades like sand, almond and milk tea. These colours looked soft, blended and low-maintenance.
Grey blending continued to rise too. Instead of covering every strand, clients chose to blend grey into their natural colour for a seamless, elegant finish.

Copper Colour Came Into Its Own
2025 was the year of copper. From soft strawberry blondes to rich rust tones, we saw clients of all skin tones embracing the warmth and glow of red hair. And as we near 2026, we’re already seeing signs of a shift towards deeper reds like plum, aubergine and wine tones are on the horizon.

What to Expect from 2026 Hair Trends
Looking ahead, the 2026 hair trends are shaping up to be exciting, individual and even more focused on wellness. Here’s what we’re expecting to see more of and what we’re planning for at Love Hair.
Curly Hair Extensions Are Coming
Hair extensions are evolving in 2026. While they’ve always been a go-to for long hairstyles, we’ll soon be introducing curly hair extensions that match natural texture. This is perfect for clients with curls who want more volume or length without losing their natural hair texture.
We’re incredibly excited about this addition. It means more inclusive choices and more ways for clients to love their own hair. You can book a free consultation to discuss your needs.
Long Hairstyles, Updated Again
For clients who love their long hair, 2026 will continue the trend of natural movement, soft shaping and layering to suit each curl pattern or wave. Hair extensions will remain essential, not just for dramatic changes, but for subtle enhancements that add thickness and dimension to long hairstyles.
Our team will also continue to offer solutions for hair thinning and hormonal changes. We can advise on using clip-in extensions and top pieces to support hair health while giving you the style you want.
Short Haircuts Stay on Trend
Short haircuts will remain a strong feature of 2026 hair trends. We’re predicting more creative styling and texturing, layered crops, soft undercuts and styles that are bold without being harsh. Short hair is an expression of confidence, and we’re seeing more clients embrace it, especially as maintenance becomes easier with expert guidance.

The Rise of ‘Undone’ Styling
One of the newer 2026 hair trends is the laid-back, casual updo. Think oversized clips, loose twists and styles that look like you didn’t spend too long but still feel polished. The “lazy girl” look is stylish without trying too hard and works brilliantly in Singapore’s heat.

Colour Trends: From Copper to Plum
While copper dominated 2025, the 2026 hair trends point to cooler, deeper tones. We’re seeing more interest in plum, wine and berry shades with rich colours that suit a range of complexions and feel both playful and grown-up.

Scalp Health Becomes Central
This year we saw more clients ask about hair thinning, postpartum regrowth and perimenopause changes. Healthier hair starts with a balanced scalp, and we’re here to guide you with the right products and treatments. We offer scalp health services and do-at-home products in store and in our online shop.
