This summer, one trend is rising above the rest, and that’s layered hairstyles. Offering a blend of dimension, movement, and personality, layers are reclaiming their spotlight in the hair world. From soft face-framing strands to dynamic shags and elongated silhouettes, this season’s layered looks are all about enhancing natural beauty with tailored precision.

At HARE & BONE, we’re embracing this movement across all lengths and textures, helping clients discover the layered look that’s just right for them. Whether you’re looking to revive your current cut or commit to something brand new, layered hairstyles offer an effortlessly modern refresh.

Why Layered Hairstyles Are Summer’s It-Cut

What makes layered hairstyles the go-to this summer? Versatility. Layers work harmoniously with virtually every hair length, from chin-length bobs to waist-grazing lengths. They can inject volume into fine hair, lighten thick locks, and frame the face to accentuate your best features.

This adaptability is key in a season where effortless elegance meets ease and practicality. Layers add texture, allow for air-dried styles, and bring out the best in natural movement, ideal for summer’s relaxed vibe.

Tailored to Every Length and Texture

Whether you’re craving the revival of the ‘70s shag or a subtle cascade of long layers, there’s a version of layered hairstyles to suit every aesthetic. Shorter styles benefit from soft internal layering for bounce and shape, while longer hair gains definition and movement through expertly placed long layers.

Face-framing layers, one of the most requested looks this season, are particularly transformative. These delicate pieces not only draw attention to the eyes and cheekbones but also make everyday styling feel intentional and refined.

Heatless Styling & Embracing the Natural

As more clients steer away from excessive heat tools, layered hairstyles have become the perfect partner for heatless techniques. Their natural flow enhances air-dried styles, waves, and curls, making it easier than ever to embrace your hair’s organic texture.

A spritz of the Oribe Apres Beach Waves And Shine Spray or a curl-enhancing cream like our personal favourite Love Curl Cream by Davines is often all that’s needed to bring layered hairstyles to life, especially during warmer months when minimal styling feels just right.

For those drawn to a more carefree aesthetic, the boho hairstyle is also seeing a strong revival this season. With its emphasis on texture, softness, and natural movement, it’s the perfect companion trend to layered cuts. Discover our favourite boho hairstyles for summer.

Your Ideal Layers Start at Our Salons

Crafting the perfect layered hairstyle starts with understanding your hair type, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences.

At our Esher hair salon, clients can enjoy the same experience as they do at our Fitzrovia salon, which brings fashion-forward style to every appointment.

Across both spaces, our team uses advanced cutting techniques to customise layers that complement your features and hair’s natural movement. We don’t follow trends, we tailor them to you.

The Consultation: Precision Meets Personality

Our approach at HARE & BONE is always consultative. Whether you visit our London location in Fitzrovia or meet with our talented hairdressers in beautiful Esher in Surrey, we begin by getting to know you, your routines, your preferences, and your hair’s unique story.

Only then do we begin sculpting a layered hairstyle that enhances not only your look but your everyday confidence. From maintenance advice to product recommendations, every detail is considered.

Stylist Favourites: This Season’s Must-Have Layered Looks

Our stylists are currently loving the modern shag, full of airy volume and attitude, and long butterfly layers that deliver seamless movement while maintaining length. These styles are perfect for the sun-drenched days ahead, offering shape and sophistication in equal measure.

Another favourite is the textured bob with layers that give structure without sacrificing softness. It’s a timeless style with a distinctly 2025 update.

At HARE & BONE, creativity, connection and technical excellence define everything we do. Few can lead the way and inspire the team as much as Amelia Evans, our Art Director, Head of Education, and an award-winning hair stylist based at our Fitzrovia salon.

Her work spans precision cutting, colour concept creation, industry education, and client transformations. In this ‘day in the life of a hair stylist’ blog, we follow Amelia through her typical routine, offering a look at how experience, care and artistry come together in her world.

Starting the Day in the Life of a Hair Stylist

After a morning gym session and breakfast to fuel her morning, Amelia arrives at the salon around 9:45 am to prepare for the day ahead.

Organisation is essential. She checks her appointments, ensures all tools are clean and ready, and plans the flow of her day.

“I look over the day ahead and plan what I can,” she explains. “It doesn’t always go to plan, but I like to be prepared.”

Amelia’s day in the life of a hair stylist begins with intention and structure, a quiet moment before creativity takes the lead

Working with Clients and Supporting the Team

Amelia spends five days a week in the Fitzrovia salon, looking after a dedicated and long-standing client base.

“The most rewarding part of my job is making people feel great and building those connections. Some of my clients I’ve known for ten years. It’s always lovely to hear about their lives and catch up.”

Beyond the chair, Amelia plays a vital role in team culture. Whether it’s answering questions, offering advice or mentoring junior stylists, she’s always available to support her colleagues.

She typically wraps up around 7 or 8 pm, concluding a dynamic and creative day in the life of a hair stylist at one of Fitzrovia’s leading salons.

Education, Creative Direction and Industry Impact

When she’s not on the salon floor, Amelia is educating across the industry for Davines, sharing HARE & BONE’s ethos and advanced techniques through bespoke training courses.

She also plays a key role within Davine’s global education network, contributing to the brand’s mission of combining sustainability with cutting-edge hair innovation.

As Head of Education, she’s responsible for formatting our internal training programmes and creating the colour direction for HARE & BONE’s creative collections.

She embodies HARE & BONE’s Tech Trilogy ethos, a multi-disciplinary approach that values equal mastery in cutting, colouring and styling.

Amelia’s colour collection Harecore Happiness, inspired by 90s rave culture, was presented live in Chicago to over 1,000 colourists and featured in Creative HEAD magazine.

She has worked backstage at Fashion Week shows for brands including Versace and Tommy Hilfiger, and was a Colour Genius Awards 2024 finalist in three categories: Creative Colour Genius, Mindful Colour Genius and Afro Colour Genius.

As you can see in this example of a day in the life of a hair stylist, it’s a career that brings variety and creativity.

Trends and Transformation

Right now, Amelia is excited about the shift in client preferences.

“I love that everyone is being brave with their hair now, having more layers and cutting off a lot of length. While hair colour has gone more natural and understated for the time being, clients are looking to change their appearance with having shorter hair. Which is making me very happy.”

A day in the life of a hair stylist like Amelia Evans is built on expertise, creativity and care. Whether you’re booking for a transformation or a subtle refresh, you’re in expert hands.

Whether you visit our Esher hairdressers or our Fitzrovia hair salon, that blend of artistry and individuality is central to the experience.

The boho hairstyle has been reviving lately, and we expect to see many looks this summer that offer a fresh take on carefree styling. Already this season, there has been an emphasis on natural texture, softness, and effortless shape. As fashion leans into relaxed silhouettes and tactile fabrics, hair is following suit. We’ll be embracing movement, texture, and a more unstructured kind of beauty.

Whether it’s tousled waves, subtle braids, or a soft colour melt, there’s a boho look to suit every length, texture, and occasion. If you plan to book in at our Esher or Fitzrovia hair salon, we’ll craft a boho hairstyle that’s bespoke to you by tailoring it to your hair type, lifestyle, and individual sense of style.

Boho hairstyle staples: shapely layers and soft textures

This season, the boho hairstyle is all about the finish: undone yet polished, styled but not stiff. Rather than sleek or sculpted hair, we’re seeing styles that move freely like shaggy layers, soft fringes, and silhouettes that celebrate the hair’s natural flow.

This style lends itself to lived-in elegance. It feels shaped by the elements, not the straighteners. It’s wearable, expressive, and suited to summer living.

Beachy waves and boho buns

Beachy waves remain a signature look when it comes to boho hairstyles. These relaxed looks appear effortless and can add volume and movement to the hair without appearing overly styled.

For those who prefer wearing their hair up, boho buns are the perfect solution. You can wear these styles low, loose and textured, and they also work brilliantly with face-framing strands or braided details. We’ve also seen looks elevated with silk scarfs, soft ribbons and natural-looking accessories to finish off the hairstyle.

Enhancing curls and embracing volume

Boho doesn’t mean straight hair only. In fact, boho hairstyles thrive on natural curls and coils. The goal is to highlight what your hair does best, enhanced with a great cut and well-matched products. Some products we adore for enhancing curls include the Davines LOVE CURL Cream and the Oribe Styling Butter Curl Crème, which help to define your curls and keep them in place.

Layering plays a key role here, too, when it comes to boho hairstyles. This is because layers allow for your curls to sit in a shape that enhances bounce and body. Our stylists at both our Fitzrovia hair salon and Esher hairdressers know how to work with texture to achieve a personalised shape that grows out beautifully.

Lived-in colour for a sun-kissed feel

A signature feature of the boho revival is lived-in colour. The colouring is subtle, seamless and designed to mimic the soft fade of summer. Think hand-painted highlights, balayage looks, and soft tonal shifts that add depth without drawing harsh lines. Whether you’re looking to soften your brunette, brighten your blonde, or enhance your natural base, our hairdressers in Fitzrovia, Central London, and Esher, Surrey, are here to create the perfect hue for your summer look.

Tailored to you- always

At HARE & BONE, every look is crafted around you. We start with a consultation that explores your lifestyle, hair texture and goals.

This isn’t just about following trends-it’s about enhancing what you already have and helping your hair feel as good as it looks.

Ready for the boho revival?

A boho hairstyle offers a perfect blend of ease and expression for this summer. It’s shaped to move with you, feel natural, and reflect your personal style. Whether you’re inspired by waves, curls, braids or colour, the HARE & BONE team is here to craft something uniquely yours.

Book your appointment today with our hairdressers in Fitzrovia or Esher and discover a new way to wear your hair which is effortless, expressive, and summer-ready.

At HARE & BONE, style is tailored, refined, and unapologetically personal. That’s why we created the Clipper Club, which launched in 2023, so you can get the perfect clipper cut for you. This is an membership designed for those who like to keep it short, sharp, and confidently on point.

At the club, a clipper cut is elevated with our signature attention to detail, expert product recommendations, and a tailored grooming experience that goes beyond the basics.

What is the Clipper Club?

The Clipper Club is a bespoke grooming membership for those who wear their hair short and prefer a clipper cut to scissors. No matter if you’re growing your hair out with intention or keeping it consistently clean, we are here to offer our bespoke services.

Our stylists are passionate about offering fashion-forward, personalised guidance, ensuring every client leaves with a look that enhances their features and reflects their individual style.

The Clipper Club is available at both our Fitzrovia and Esher hair salons and is created for those who value precision, convenience and consistency.

What’s included?

Within our Clipper Club, we include four clipper cuts, all designed to help you maintain a sharp finish throughout the seasons. We also offer interim maintenance so you’re covered in between appointments. This way, we can keep things neat and refined.

Our product pairings are tailored to you from your very first visit. This is when our professional team assess your hair and recommends the perfect shampoo and styling product. These are yours to take home so that you can keep on top of your regime at all times, both within and outside of the salon.

With our Clipper Club, you can expect no less than our signature HARE & BONE experience. This starts with your initial consultation until you leave the salon. Your hair will be treated with artistry, attention and absolute style.

Why did we create it?

We created the Clipper Club because we believe that short hair requires as much attention to detail as longer styles. We consider it as luxury grooming without the fuss, because maintaining your cut should be seamless.

The investment that you’re making

The cost of the Clipper Club is £220 for 4 appointments and two carefully curated haircare products for you to take home. The Clipper Club is next-level grooming that has been smartly bundled for you.
It offers savings compared to individual appointments, making it a smarter way to keep your hair looking sharp.

Suitable for all types of shorter cuts

Whether you’re a regular in our chair or new to HARE & BONE, the Clipper Club is your entry to low-maintenance hair done right. Clipper cuts are suitable for a range of shorter hairstyles like buzz cuts, fades, crops, undercuts and everything in between.

They can require regular upkeep, usually needing maintenance every four to six weeks to stay fresh, so having a streamlined plan like joining the Clipper Club ensures your style always looks intentional.

Sustainability at our core

As with everything we do at HARE & BONE, this offering aligns with our commitment to sustainable beauty practices, working with brands like Davines, who prioritise both performance and the planet.

The HARE & BONE touch

Our clipper cuts are a ritual of style, infused with the creativity and craftsmanship that we’re known for. Whether you’re entering our Fitzrovia salon with its editorial edge or Esher’s salon of relaxed luxury, our Clipper Club is your answer to effortless grooming.

Ready to join?

If you’re ready to join us and keep your edge sharp with a clipper cut, visit us in one of our salons or contact us directly to join the club. We look forward to hearing from you!

Spring is in full swing, and with the sunshine here to stay (hopefully!), now’s the perfect time to lean into a colour that feels fresh and warm and has vitality. One thing we’ve noticed this spring is that our clients are moving away from cooler, ashier tones in favour of warmer, light-reflecting shades that enhance natural hair with quiet luxury.

The freshest hair colours for spring

We’re seeing blondes go golden, brunettes go for richer tones and soft pastel accents to hair this season. When we think of hair colours for spring, we think about depth, dimension and effortless beauty. It’s not about dramatic reinvention; it’s about subtle shifts that bring your colour to life.

From nuanced blondes to tonal brunettes and playful seasonal twists, here’s what’s trending in our Fitzrovia and Esher hair salons right now and how we’re customising each look to suit you.

Buttercream blonde: a seasonal staple

Sitting between Scandi blonde and natural honey, buttercream is spring’s answer to the icy champagnes that we’ve seen previously. It has a creamy softness that brings brightness to the face without any harshness. This is one of the hair colours for spring that is as luminous as it is luxurious, with a lived-in feel and a blended look.

Brunette: gloss over gimmicks

When it comes to hair colours for spring, brunettes are making a statement in the most understated way. The ‘liquid brunette’ is a term that describes super glossy hair, and we’ve been creating this with a blend of chestnut, mocha, and coffee tones that create movement and depth. This look is low effort but undeniably striking.

Balayage: the sun-kissed classic, reimagined.

The balayage is back as one of the biggest hair colours for spring, but this time, it is softer and more subtle, with more dimension than before. Our clients are receiving seamless transitions of golden ribbons woven through natural tones and delicate enhancements that mimic how the sun lifts your hair after a holiday. This look is perfect for any hair colour that wants a natural refresh with minimal upkeep.

Peach and apricot pastels: a playful touch

We’ve been enjoying how peachy and apricot-blonde tones have been quietly coming into their own. These shades offer a gentle warmth that flatters lighter hair without tipping fully into copper. They bring a hint of unique colour to hair for a sunlit and soft look that’s one of the most perfect hair colours for spring.

Our professional advice: the power of small tweaks

We believe that not every transformation needs to be dramatic. A different toner or some strategically placed highlights can completely shift your look. Our advice? Focus on enhancing your existing colour with subtle warmth, added shine, and thoughtful detail.

Glossing for healthy hair that’s elevated

No matter the shade of hair colour that you go for, the finish can be everything. A high-shine gloss will elevate any colour, giving your hair that expensive-looking sheen that reads as healthy and intentional.

Retain your hair’s colour and vibrancy

It’s important to retain your hair colour and its vibrancy with the right products. We’re loving the Davines MINU colour protective hair care range, especially the MINU Hair Serum, for keeping colour vibrant and salon-fresh between appointments.

Ready for Your Seasonal Update?

Whether you’re craving a soft tonal shift or something with a bit more personality, our team of colour experts in our Fitzrovia hair salon in Central London or our Esher hair salon in Surrey are here to tailor the perfect update by choosing the best hair colours for spring. From delicate face-framing babylights and balayages to elevated pastels, we’ll guide you through the shades that best suit your skin tone, style, and maintenance preferences.

Book your consultation now, and let’s create something beautiful, because the best colour is the one that feels entirely yours.

Welcome to 2024 and our New Year news! We have a strong feeling that this is going to be a powerful and positive year. Not only do we celebrate our 10th anniversary later in the year we’re kick-starting it with our new salon partner – Davines. 

The team spent months researching various salon brands and Davines is a company that aligns with our values and vision. Sustainable and stylish, Davines is a B corp brand with the determination to do good for each other and the planet. We visited their carbon-neutral headquarters in Parma, Italy where they grow plants, fruit trees and vegetables for their research and development laboratories to test and experiment with different samples of natural ingredients.

We’ve undergone intensive training and can’t wait to share our knowledge with you. For all colour clients, please note that a new skin sensitivity test came into place on November 16th 2023. If you haven’t taken this test yet, please ensure you pick one up from the salon at least 48 hours before your next colour appointment. And trust us when we say,  the colour performance is unrivalled. We know you will love this brand as much as we do. That’s all for our New Year news this year, we will catch you in 12 months!
