What Is the Most Trending Haircut Today for Girls?

Style Isn't Just for Grown-Ups Anymore

Kids these days watch YouTube and see all these cool hairstyles, then they come asking for something trendy. Your 8-year-old sees a girl on TikTok with cute hair and suddenly she needs that exact same cut. It's funny how much they care about looking stylish now.

But here's the thing - you want your kid to feel good about her hair, but you also don't want to spend forever every morning trying to make it look decent. Nobody's got time to be doing fancy hairstyles when you're rushing to get everyone ready for school.

The cool thing about girls' haircut trends right now is that most of them are pretty easy to deal with. The popular kid's haircut styles look good without tons of work. So your daughter gets to feel trendy, and you don't have to stress about it every day.

We get asked this question all the time at our shops - what's the most trending haircut today for girls? After doing hundreds of cuts at Buzz Cuts Plano and seeing what everyone's asking for at our trending girls haircut McKinney location, we definitely know what's hot.

Top Pick of 2025: The Soft Curved Bob

This is it - the cut every girl is asking for this year. It's basically a bob, but instead of that straight line across the back, it curves a little. Sounds simple, but it makes a huge difference.

Why is everyone obsessed with this cut? First off, it looks good on pretty much every kid. The length hits somewhere around the chin or shoulders, which is perfect. Not too short that they feel like a boy, not too long that it gets in their way.

The curved part is what makes it look modern instead of old-fashioned. The hair in front is a little longer than the hair in back, so it kind of swoops around their face. Looks way cooler than those boring straight bobs from back in the day.

Parents love this cut because it's so easy. You wash it, brush it, and it's done. Looks neat enough for school but not so fancy that it gets messed up when they're playing. The length keeps hair out of their face, but they still have enough to do ponytails or braids.

We've done tons of these at both Buzz Cuts Plano and McKinney. Parents come in saying their kid saw it somewhere and has to have it. Good thing it actually works well for most girls.

Other Cuts Girls Keep Asking For

The curved bob is number one, but there's other stuff that's popular too.

Long layers - for girls who don't want to lose their length but want something different. We cut layers all through the hair so it's not just hanging there in one boring chunk. Makes thick hair easier to brush and gives thin hair more body.

Shoulder length with side bangs - this one's good for girls who want bangs but not those straight-across ones that look too babyish. The bangs sweep to the side, and the hair hits right at the shoulders. Not too long, not too short.

Pixie bob - this is for brave girls who want to go really short. It's like a bob but shorter, usually around the ears. Super easy to take care of and perfect for girls who do lots of sports or just don't want to mess with their hair much.

Shaggy cuts - these have lots of choppy layers that make the hair look kind of messy on purpose. Great for girls with wavy or curly hair because it works with what their hair naturally wants to do.

Why Parents Like Coming Here

Cutting children's hair can be a real hassle. It is possible that they are terrified, restless, or simply dislike the entire situation. Because of this, our customers prefer to come to us instead of other hair salons.

For whatever reason, our barbers are experts at making kid's haircuts enjoyable rather than terrifying. They engage the girls in conversation, provide images, and provide explanations about their activities. When children take longer, don't get frustrated or hurry up.

Everything here is set up for children. Fun chairs, cartoons on TV, people who actually like working with kids. You don't have to worry about your daughter being the only kid in a place full of adults getting fancy cuts.

We're fast too, which matters when you're dealing with kids who don't want to sit still. Most cuts take maybe 20-30 minutes, which is about as long as most kids can handle. Nobody has to sit there for an hour getting cranky.

The cuts we suggest are picked because they're easy to deal with at home. We're not going to give your kid some complicated style that needs an hour of work every morning. That doesn't help anybody.

Making These Cuts Look Good at Home

Even easy cuts need a little work to look their best. Here's some stuff that actually works for busy families.

Get some detangler spray and use it every time you wash her hair. Makes brushing way easier and stops those awful, tangly messes that make kids hate getting their hair done. Just spray it on wet hair and comb through.

Use a good brush - those wide paddle brushes work better than regular ones. They don't pull as much and get through hair faster. Keep one in the bathroom and maybe another one in your car for emergencies.

Hair clips and headbands are lifesavers. Kids love having different ways to wear their hair, and it takes like two seconds to clip something in. Way easier than trying to do braids every day.

For bob cuts, a tiny bit of leave-in conditioner helps with frizz and makes hair shiny. Don't use much - just smooth a little through damp hair.

Don't worry about making it perfect every day. These cuts are supposed to look good even when they're a little messy. Sometimes, messy actually looks better anyway.

FAQs

How often should my daughter get her hair cut?

Most girls need a trim every 6-8 weeks to keep things looking good. If her hair grows super fast or the cut needs more upkeep, maybe every month or so. We'll tell you what makes sense for her specific style.

What works best for really thick hair?

Thick hair usually needs layers to cut down on the bulk. Long layers or a bob with layers can make thick hair way easier to handle. We can also thin it out while we're cutting to make it less of a pain to deal with.

Should young girls get bangs?

Although they require more maintenance than cuts without bangs, bangs can be adorable. Bangs are acceptable as long as your daughter remains still and you're willing to clip them in between appointments. Cutting side bangs is simpler than cutting them across the middle.

Can curly hair pull off a bob cut?

Well, I must say, they are quite effective. A shorter cut prevents curls from becoming flat and unmanageable. We just cut it to work with the curls instead of trying to fight them. Some of the cutest cuts we do are curly bobs.
