I'm a Beauty Editor—4 Autumn Hair Trends I'm Trying and 4 I'm Pausing This Season
While I don't believe in trends being "in" or "out", these are the swaps I'm making this autumn to keep my hairstyle feeling modern.


The new season is in full swing, which is why we've been busy collating reports on the biggest autumn hair trends, hair colour trends, bob trends and more, to help keep you in the loop when it comes to what's popular right now. As an editor, I don't love the idea of writing about what's "in" and what's "out", as I personally believe in wearing whatever hairstyle you want.
That being said, writing about trending haircuts and colours daily means I am pretty clued up on what styles people are leaning towards and which trends haven't quite made it into 2025. Below, I've put together a list of easy swaps to help make your hairstyle feel more modern this season. Interested? Keep on scrolling.
1. Pausing Cherry Cola Hair, Wearing Espresso Brown Hair
While I love the cherry cola hair trend as much as the next person, I've noticed more and more people opting for rich, dark brunette hues this autumn. This colour pairs beautifully with a glossy finish for an elegant, polished look.
I tend to gravitate towards these darker tones in September and beyond, so I might have to give this trend a go myself.

2. Pausing Claw Clips, Wearing French Pins
A claw clip is a timeless hair accessory, but if you feel like switching things up this season, why not opt for a super stylish French pin?
Effortless and chic, this is the autumn hair accessory to get your hands on.

3. Pausing Micro Bobs, Wearing Mid-Length Bobs
Bobs are going nowhere, but when collating the report on the biggest autumn bob hair trends of 2025, I noticed a resurgence in midi-length and lob hairstyles. This is great news for any low-maintenance girlies out there, as this short hair trend is so much easier to maintain.
Pair your midi-length bob with a fringe for the ultimate fashion statement.
Get the Look:
Get that effortless, cool-girl finish with a bit of texturising spray.
A great hot brush for styling midi styles.
4. Pausing Slicked-Back Buns, Wearing Tousled Updos
The slicked-back bun has been in style for years now, and it will forever be my hair-wash day updo of choice. However, when I do have fresh hair that is ready to be styled, I am definitely opting for one of these chic, tousled updos.
I've spotted lots of stylish French women wearing this look for autumn.
Get the Look:
Add some loose waves to your tousled updo with this affordable curling tong.
