Now that autumn is upon us, it’s time for a big beauty refresh to go along with the change of seasons. The best way to welcome a new era is to switch up your hair. Whether you want something bold and dramatic or a subtle change, there are a plethora of new cool-girl hairstyles taking over. Last season it was all about the sleek bobs and the layered locks, whilst 2025 autumn hair styles are slightly more undone and effortless – but there are still some structured styles popping up. From the bedhead shag to the French girl bob, we are obsessed with the new dominating dos.

H! Fashion! got the inside scoop from two celebrity hairstylists on all the need-to-know autumn styles. Jason Collier’s A-list clientele includes Victoria Beckham, Sienna Miller and Eva Longoria. He is also the founder of London-based salon Studio23. Whilst Cos Sakkas is a three-time British Hairdresser of the Year and Global Creative Director at TONI&GUY.

Cos tells H! Fashion: “This autumn, we will be seeing everything bob-shaped now, you can’t go wrong with a bob, and throughout AW25 we will be seeing a variety of this iconic style. Whether it is a short and cute cut or longer with more volume, it’s going to be the main shape of the season.” On top of this, he predicts that we will be seeing lots of face-framing styles, from fringes to layers. “It’s all about creating a look that brings focus to the face while staying true to your authentic texture and lifestyle,” he adds.

As for the direction of styling, it’s all about contrast. The expert hairstylist says,” We’re moving in both directions. On one hand, sleek, polished shapes like the Luxe Box Bob or sculpted ponytails are huge for AW25 – they feel powerful and minimal. But at the same time, there’s a real appetite for volume and texture: think modern shags, retro blow-outs, or bed-head layers.” Adding: “So, it’s less about one dominating the other, and more about choosing which mood suits you – clean and refined, or big and expressive.”
