Tiktok Trends - October 2025

Introducing "TikTok Trends 2025" – your source for staying ahead of the game on the latest TikTok crazes!

TikTok trends move fast, and if you're not quick, you'll miss out. But let's be real, keeping up with TikTok trends can be a hassle. That's where we come in.
Each week, we'll keep you updated on what's hot on TikTok (by spending way too much time scrolling). From trending hashtags to popular sounds and formats, we've got you covered!

Please note:

• Currently, our focus is primarily on TikTok, but we're exploring other networks. It's worth testing these trends across all platforms to see what resonates best with your audience.
• Trends are generally very short, which may concern you about not mentioning the product enough. However, the mistake would be to tack on promotional elements after the video. It's crucial that the video stays true to the trend, lasts only a few seconds, and captures the essence of the need your service addresses in a brief timeframe.
• Not all trends will be suitable for every brand. It will be up to you to choose the ones that seem most relevant to your message and goals.

The “AI Prank” trend

This trend is pure chaos and AI is the unsuspecting accomplice 😏

Creators are using AI-generated images to prank their partners, friends, or family. The setup? Create a hilariously unrealistic (and usually suspicious) scenario using AI photos, then text it to someone to see how they react. The results are absurd, dramatic, and chef’s kiss levels of TikTok humor.

It’s part comedy, part social experiment, and a great way to show just how convincingly ridiculous AI images can be.

How to do this trend

1. Generate a few AI images of a person or scene that’s funny, strange, or mildly alarming,  something that would make someone question your life choices 😭
2. Text the images to your partner, parent, or friend with a casual caption like “the plumber just got here” or “the delivery guy said you ordered this?”
3. Record their reaction (screen record or film yourself waiting for their reply).
4. Add “AI Prank” as text overlay somewhere on the screen so people know what’s going on.
5. Add in a few more AI images to escalate the story, the more ridiculous, the better.

Funny scenarios to use

• The realtor came by to check the house, but now he’s in the hot tub?
• An AI electrician “checking the wiring” while lounging on the couch.
• A delivery man bringing 12 boxes of croissants you never ordered.

The “Betrayal List” trend

Kanye West’s infamous “Betrayal List” has turned into one of TikTok’s funniest and most relatable trends, and it’s exactly as dramatic as it sounds 😭

Creators are making their own lists of everyday “betrayals,” turning minor inconveniences into personal attacks. It’s the perfect mix of pop culture, chaos, and comedy, proving that sometimes, the smallest things can hurt the most.

How to use this trend

• Choose the format: you can type out your list in the Notes app or show it as on-screen text.
• Add the Betrayal List audio (the Kanye West one) and keep your tone dead serious for maximum contrast.
• List out everything that’s personally offended or betrayed you recently, from people to events, to inanimate objects.
• End it dramatically or add a subtle zoom for effect. Bonus points if you look disappointed, unbothered, or emotionally destroyed 😌

Some examples to help you get started

• My Wi-Fi connection
• Bad weather on my day off
• The printer when I actually need it
• Coworkers who schedule 5 p.m. meetings
• My skin breaking out right before an event
• When my fries get cold

The “Sugar on my tongue” trend

If you miss the golden days of TikTok dance trends, this one’s your throwback moment.The “Like Sugar on My Tongue” trend brings back that early TikTok energy: music, movement, and a little bit of chaos.

And yes, you’ll need a fridge. (It’s the star of the show, apparently but you can make it optional if you think out of the box, literally.) Just… maybe don’t leave your phone in there too long 🧊📱

How to do this trend

• Set your phone to selfie mode and place it inside your fridge.
• Hit record and close the fridge doors.
• Play Tyler, the Creator’s “Sugar on My Tongue.”
• When the lyrics say “tongue,” open the fridge, grab the candy, and lick it (or just your finger).
• Cut that clip into a loop so the lick repeats three times: matching the song’s beat.
• When the lyrics say “your body is so sweet,” show off a dance move or quick pose.
• On “come,” make a beckoning or inviting motion: also looped three times to stay in rhythm.

Make it yours

The beauty of this trend is how unhinged you can make it.Bring whatever energy you want: goofy, sultry, awkward, dramatic. Many creators are turning it into a full comedy skit, adding props, over-the-top reactions, or even treating the fridge like a co-star.

It’s classic TikTok energy: simple, a little weird, and totally yours.

For this trend, use this sound.

The “Siren Head Funk” trend

The Siren Head Funk Dance trend is the perfect mix of spooky and funny and just in time for Halloween 👻

It starts off calm, then the neck crack sound hits… and chaos (or transformation) begins.

Whether you go full horror-movie mode or keep it light with a creative transition, this one’s all about the surprise moment.

How to use this trend

1. Start solo. Begin with a simple pose or casual dance as the beat starts.
2. Neck crack moment. When you hear the sound effect, twist your head dramatically to the side and fall out of frame.
   • If you’re alone, use your own hand to fake the twist.
   • If you’re filming with a friend, have them reach in from off-screen to “twist” your head.
3. The comeback. As the beat drops again, pop back into frame, either by yourself or with your partner, and reveal something new:
   • A creepy makeup look
   • A Halloween costume
   • Or just a new outfit / fun vibe change
4. Add your twist. Some creators break into a dance right after the transition, others keep it cinematic or comedic.

Ideas

• Halloween transition: Normal you → scary makeup or full costume reveal.
• Couples edition: One twists the other’s head → both reappear in matching outfits.
• Comedy take: Instead of turning scary, reappear with something random (like holding snacks or wearing sunglasses).
• UGC twist: Brands or creators can use it to show a “before and after”; e.g. bare face → full glam, messy room → clean setup, tired → energized.

For this trend, use this sound.
