Fall Hair Trends: The Cuts and Styles Everyone Is Talking About

October 31 2025

As the weather cools and the leaves change, so do the trends in the world of hair. Fall is all about fresh starts and transformation, and there’s no better time to update your look. At The Masters Salon, our stylists specialize in creating personalized, seasonal styles that complement your features, lifestyle, and hair texture. Whether you’re ready for a dramatic change or just want a subtle refresh, this fall’s hair trends have something for everyone.

The Modern Shag: Effortless Texture for Every Hair Type

The shag has made a full comeback, but this season’s version is softer and more refined. Think face-framing layers, natural movement, and a perfectly undone finish. This cut works beautifully on medium to long hair and can be customized with bangs or blended layers, depending on your face shape.

Best for:

• Anyone wanting a low-maintenance style with maximum volume and texture.

• Wavy or naturally textured hair that thrives on movement.

Pair it with a dimensional balayage or soft highlights from The Masters Salon to give your shag depth and a sun-kissed finish that transitions beautifully from summer to fall.

The Sleek Bob: Sophisticated and Versatile

Bobs are timeless, but this fall’s version focuses on sleek, glass-like finishes. The classic one-length bob with a blunt edge instantly adds polish and can be styled straight or curled for versatility. Adding a deep side part gives the look a bold, modern edge.

Best for:

• Fine or straight hair that benefits from precision cutting.

• Anyone looking for a professional yet chic cut that requires minimal daily styling.

To enhance the shine and keep your bob healthy, try a glossing treatment or smoothing service. It adds mirror-like radiance and helps your hair stay frizz-free during cooler, drier months.

Curtain Bangs: The Ultimate Fall Accent

Curtain bangs continue to dominate this season because they’re flattering, easy to style, and add instant softness to any haircut. Whether paired with long layers, a medium-length cut, or even a shag, curtain bangs frame the face beautifully and work well with all hair textures.

Best for:

• Those wanting to update their look without a major chop.

• Anyone with straight to wavy hair who loves effortless styling.

Styling tip: Blow dry curtain bangs with a round brush, curling them slightly under to frame the eyes, and finish with a lightweight hairspray for hold.

Long Layers: Movement and Volume for the Season Ahead

For those who prefer to keep their length, long layers are the ideal way to bring life back to your style. They add dimension and reduce weight, keeping your hair bouncy instead of heavy. Layered cuts are perfect for showcasing balayage, color melts, or subtle highlights that enhance your natural shade.

Best for:

• Thick or heavy hair that needs movement and manageability.

• Clients who want to maintain long hair while keeping it fresh and healthy.

Our stylists can customize your layers to suit your face shape and texture, ensuring your style looks effortless every day. Pair this look with a deep conditioning treatment to restore moisture as temperatures drop.

The Textured Pixie: Chic, Confident, and Cool

Short hair is making a bold statement this fall with the rise of the textured pixie. This edgy yet feminine cut focuses on volume at the crown and soft, choppy layers throughout. It’s modern, flattering, and surprisingly versatile—you can style it smooth and sleek or tousled for a more casual vibe.

Best for:

• Clients ready for a bold change.

• Fine to medium textures looking for an easy-to-maintain style.

Ask your stylist about adding subtle highlights or a toner refresh to make your pixie pop. With expert color services, even short hair can make a big impact.

Dimensional Color: The Perfect Fall Finish

Of course, no fall hairstyle is complete without the perfect color. Rich, warm tones like chestnut brown, copper, and honey blonde are trending this season, adding depth and warmth to every look. The Masters Salon’s professional colorists are experts in balayage, highlights, and all-over color designed to complement your haircut and complexion.

Whether you’re embracing the golden tones of autumn or experimenting with something bold, your stylist can create a personalized color that enhances your new fall style.
