3 Haircut Trends Blowing Up on TikTok Right Now

Every few months, a new haircut takes over your For You page. Right now, three styles are absolutely everywhere – and barbers say they’re getting more requests for these than anything else.

1. The Fluffy Fringe

Think of it as curtain bangs’ cooler younger sibling. The fluffy fringe sits higher on the forehead and has more volume at the roots. It works on almost any face shape because it’s so customizable – your stylist can adjust the length and thickness to flatter your features.

Why it’s trending: It photographs incredibly well. The soft, airy texture catches light in a way that looks natural on camera.

2. The Soft Undercut

This isn’t your 2016 undercut. The 2025 version keeps the sides slightly longer and blends more gradually into the top. There’s no harsh line – just a smooth transition that grows out gracefully instead of looking awkward after two weeks.

Barbers love this one because clients actually come back happy instead of complaining about maintenance.

3. The Choppy Lob

The classic lob got a texture upgrade. This version has more layers and piece-y ends that move when you walk. It’s hitting right now because it works for both straight and wavy hair, and you can style it messy or polished depending on the day.

Fair warning: this cut requires a good stylist. The layers need to be placed strategically or you’ll end up with a triangle head situation.

Should You Try One?

The best part about all three trends is that they’re relatively low-commitment. None of them require dramatic length changes or extensive styling routines. If you’re thinking about switching things up, bring a TikTok screenshot to your next appointment – most stylists appreciate having a visual reference.

Just remember that what looks perfect on screen might need adjustments for your specific hair type and face shape. A good barber or stylist will tell you honestly if a trend will work for you.
