Winter 2025 Hair Trends
As the temperatures drop, Winter 2025 is ushering in a season of cozy sophistication and expressive beauty. This year’s hair trends are all about natural textures, rich tones, and effortless chic. Whether you're looking to refresh your look or completely reinvent your style, here are the top hair trends to watch. Hair Style Trends Curly Hair Takes Centre Stage Curls are stealing the spotlight this season - and they’re bigger, bolder, and more beautiful than ever. From tight coils to soft waves, natural texture is being embraced in all its glory. Layered curls are trending, because the layers add bounce, shape, and dimension to curly hair. Pro Tip: Use curl-defining creams and hydrating masks to keep your curls healthy and vibrant through the colder months. The Messy Bun: Effortless Elegance The messy bun is making a stylish comeback this season, and it's more refined than ever. It blends casual ease with polished sophistication. Ideal for everything from relaxed weekends to evening outings, it suits all hair types and lengths. This winter’s standout is the curly messy bun - where natural curls are loosely gathered to create a soft, voluminous look full of texture and personality. Its charm lies in its undone finish, with a few face-framing strands adding that perfect touch of effortless beauty. Umberto Giannini Curl Jelly Vegan Scrunching Jelly 200ml The no.1 curly girl favourite for over 20 years! Banishes frizz, adds shine and gives sublime definition to waves and curls.

Conditioning leave-in detangling spray glides through knots, tangles and split ends. Hair Colour Trend Chocolate Brown: The Shade of the Season Looking for a colour refresh?

How To: Achieve Fluffy Brows at Home!
Dreaming of full, fluffy, salon-worthy brows without leaving the house? We’ve got you covered. This easy, step-by-step routine will help you master the art of the perfect fluffy brow. No need for fancy appointments, just a few tools, a light touch, and a little brow magic. Step One: Grab your strong hold Brow Wax & Spoolie! Gently dip your brush into the wax, then brush your brow hairs upward, downward, and across to distribute the product evenly and build volume (more product means a fluffier look). Next, carefully brush and shape the hairs from root to tip, sculpting them into your desired shape and level of fluffiness. Step Two: Use a Microblading Pen to fill the gaps! Go in with a light hand and take your time filling in any sparse areas. Focus on creating fine, hair-like strokes to achieve a naturally full brow look. Step Three: Grab your concealer & brow brush! Use a brush to apply concealer above and below the brow to define and clean up the shape. Blend out the edges for a seamless, natural finish. TIP: Choose a concealer that matches your skin tone—going too light can make the brows appear harsh or boxy. Congrats! Your brows are big, bushy, fluffy & GORGEOUS! Chat soon! Team BG 🖤
