At Kapils Salon, our stylists have rounded up the top haircut trends to try before 2026 begins — from effortlessly chic lobs to bold, layered looks designed for Indian hair textures and lifestyles.
Let’s dive into the styles that are stealing the spotlight!
1. The Butterfly Cut – Glamorous, Flowing Layers
The Butterfly Cut continues to dominate 2025 trends — a face-framing, layered look that adds volume, bounce, and shape. Perfect for long to medium-length hair, it creates soft movement while maintaining length.
Kapils Tip: Pair this cut with soft waves or a blowout finish for a glamorous, celebrity-inspired look.
Best for: Long hair, round or oval face shapes.
2. The Textured Bob – Chic, Confident & Timeless
Short hair is making a strong comeback, especially the textured bob. This cut sits just above the shoulders and adds structure while maintaining versatility.
It’s perfect for women looking for a fresh, low-maintenance yet trendy haircut before 2026.
Kapils Tip: Ask for subtle layers or curtain bangs to personalize your bob.
Best for: Oval or square face shapes, fine to medium hair.
3. Layered Shag – Effortless Cool Girl Vibes
Think rockstar energy meets modern femininity! The Layered Shag is full of movement, body, and edge — perfect for those who love carefree styling.
Kapils Tip: Combine with soft balayage or highlights for dimension.
Best for: Medium hair, wavy or curly textures.
4. The Italian Bob – Sophisticated & Sleek
This 2025 favourite is all about luxury and elegance. The Italian Bob features a full, bouncy shape with a smooth finish — perfect for festive and corporate looks alike.
Kapils Tip: Finish with a Botoplex or Keratin treatment at Kapils Salon for mirror-like shine.
Best for: Straight or smooth hair textures.
5. Soft Curtain Bangs – Subtle, Romantic & Flattering
Curtain bangs are here to stay into 2026! They blend beautifully with layers and frame your face softly.
Kapils Tip: Style with a round brush and light mousse for bounce.
Best for: All face shapes and hair types.
