Are you ready for a seasonal refresh? Whether you’re looking to shed some length or simply want to elevate your current style, this season’s haircut trends are all about individuality, movement, and, most importantly, healthy hair.

At Aveda Institute, we believe a great haircut is more than just a trim; it’s a personalized experience that begins with a professional consultation and ends with a look that makes you feel your best. Here are the top five haircut trends dominating the scene this season and why you should book your next transformation with us.

The Power Pixie
Short hair is having a major moment. The Power Pixie is a bold, expressive cut that moves away from the "safe" short styles of the past. Think sharp edges, intentional texture, and a shape that highlights your facial features.

• Why it works: It’s a low-maintenance, high-impact style that exudes confidence.

• The Aveda Touch: Our stylists use botanical-based styling products to ensure your pixie has the perfect amount of "lived-in" texture without feeling stiff.
  
  The Snipped-In "Tuft" Bob
  The bob remains a staple, but this season it’s getting an edgier update. The Snipped-In Bob (or "tuft" bob) features choppy, razored ends and a shorter length that typically sits just at the jawline. It’s less about a perfect blunt line and more about "cool-girl" texture.

• Why it works: It adds instant volume to fine hair and creates a modern, youthful silhouette.

• The Aveda Touch: Pair this cut with a Botanical Repair™ professional treatment at our salon to keep those textured ends looking healthy and split-free.
  
  The "Pammy" Shag (The Modern Pamela Anderson)
  Nostalgia is still going strong, and the '90s-inspired "Pammy" Shag is the ultimate evidence. This cut is characterized by heavy, face-framing layers, soft curtain bangs, and incredible movement. It’s the perfect choice for those who love a big, bouncy blowout.

• Why it works: It’s incredibly flattering on almost every face shape and adds effortless "glam" to your daily look.

• The Aveda Touch: Our students and educators are experts in the signature Aveda blowout, giving you that 90s volume using vegan, plant-powered volumizing sprays.
  
  Grown-Out Bangs & Full Fringes
  If you aren't ready for a full chop, changing your fringe is the easiest way to transform your look. This season, we are seeing a shift toward Grown-Out Bangs, a softer, lash-grazing fringe that blends seamlessly into side layers. Alternatively, the Full Blunt Fringe is making a comeback for those who want a mysterious, editorial edge.

• Why it works: Bangs are the ultimate "face-lift" in the hair world, drawing attention to your eyes and cheekbones.

• The Aveda Touch: We offer specialized bang trims and fringe consultations to help you find the exact weight and length for your hair type.
  
  The "Bell-Bottom" Bob
  For the lovers of vintage flair, the Bell-Bottom Bob is the "it" style. This is a mid-length bob where the ends are flicked outward, creating a playful, voluminous shape reminiscent of the 60s and 70s.

• Why it works: It’s a fun, flirty style that works beautifully with both middle and side parts.

• The Aveda Touch: Using Aveda’s customizable color, we can add subtle "lights" to the flicked ends to make the movement pop even more.
