The 5 Hottest Hair Trends You Need to Try Right Now
Social media sets the stage for the latest hair and beauty trends, but recently, celebrities have been leading the way with must-try styles. From Sabrina Carpenter’s buttery blonde to the ‘90s-inspired looks of Charlotte York from Sex and the City and supermodel Christy Turlington, these five trending colours and cuts are taking over. Keep reading to discover your next hair inspiration!
Sabrina Carpenter’s Buttery Blonde
Sometimes a celeb comes along, and we want to know everything about them. When we’re not singing their songs, we’re checking out who they’re dating and who’s colouring their hair. The latest singing sensation to be put under the microscope is Sabrina Carpenter. Known for her hits such as Please, Please, Please and the oh-so-catchy Espresso, Sabrina’s hair has caught the world’s attention for both its gorgeous colour and her face-framing layers.
When it comes to achieving that buttery blonde shade, OSMO ambassador Jake Nugent says:
“Sabrina’s blonde is a stunning hair colour defined by warm golden tones that bring depth, vibrancy, and a radiant, sun-kissed finish. Its versatility is one of its greatest appeals, as it complements a wide range of skin tones and works beautifully with various hair textures. This shade is perfect for subtle transformations, such as adding highlights to darker hair, or for a bold, full-head colour that exudes warmth and luminosity.”
Jake also emphasizes the importance of aftercare, recommending shine serums and multi-tasking products to nourish and protect hair from heat damage.
Sabrina’s haircut is just as popular as her colour. She has transitioned from long, straight layers to the diamond haircut concept, designed to create harmonious angles that frame the face. The key feature of this shape is her middle-parted bangs, which sweep outward, creating a triangular window that draws attention to her eyes. This is a fantastic tip for clients looking to enhance their facial features!
Dua Lipa’s Love for Cherry Cola
It’s hard to believe that Houdini singer Dua Lipa started experimenting with Cherry Cola shades back in October 2023. The fact that this colour has remained popular for so long is a testament to its versatility.
Cherry Cola is a stunning deep shade that can be customised with shimmering red tones or enhanced with plum and purple undertones. The key is to create a bespoke colour that suits each individual’s skin tone—whether they have pale English rose skin or deep, dark complexions, there’s a Cherry Cola shade for everyone. It also looks fantastic on textured hair!
Chai Latte or Milk Tea?
For colour clients looking for something cooler, two milky trends are making waves:
Chai Latte Blonde
Think vanilla blonde infused with warm caramel for a soft yet edgy finish. This colour works beautifully on any hair length, from choppy pixies to glamorous, long styles.
Milk Tea Brown
A darker take on the chai trend, this shade has an ashy brown finish, making it perfect for a wide range of skin tones, especially Asian complexions. A subtle yet striking alternative exists for those looking to experiment with colour without going too bold.
The Charlotte Cut
You don’t need to be a ‘90s kid to appreciate the impact of Sex and the City. The show, which ran from 1998 to 2004, continues to influence fashion and culture today.
While many fans idolize Carrie Bradshaw’s style, lately, Kristin Davis’ character, Charlotte York, has been enjoying a resurgence of love—especially her quintessential Park Avenue Princess hairstyle.
The Charlotte Cut is just like Charlotte herself: princessy and romantic. This long bob is cut to one length with minimal layers, creating an effortlessly chic look. It’s a fantastic option for clients who want to play with accessories like Alice bands and stylish hair clips while growing out their hair.
The Christy Cut
Another ‘90s icon making a comeback is Christy Turlington, one of the original supermodels. Alongside Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, and Claudia Schiffer, Christy was known for her fresh, preppy aesthetic.
Her signature choppy bob, now known as The Christy, is being reinterpreted for 2025. According to @thehairbros on Instagram, this style closely resembles the classic bowl cut—also known as the Purdy—which traditionally required meticulous blow-drying for a sleek finish. However, modern versions incorporate strategic layering at the back and front, making the cut more wearable and effortless.
