The Duchess of Cambridge and Cornwall accompanied her husband on a Diamond Jubilee tour, representing Queen Elizabeth in Singapore, Malaysia, Tuvalu and the Solomon Islands in 2012. During a visit to Tuvanipupu Island, she showed off her natural curls on a low-key canoe ride. Few things are more iconic than her deep brown color and laid-back bridal half-up-half-down ’do at her 2011 wedding to Prince William at Westminster Abbey in London. "Whilst we are in this isolation time, it could be good to give your hair a break from colouring as well as heated styling tools.
The Duchess of Cambridge and Cornwall debuted her brighter new look with (gasp!) highlights at the King's Cup Regatta. It appears she swapped out her usually chocolate brown locks for a new honey brown color with a shorter version of her bouncy-layered blowout. Next, use a medium-size round bristle brush to blow dry the hair smooth, and using a medium-sized tong, take sections of hair from just under the ear and wrap around the barrel, away from your face. When trying to create Kate’s effortless wavy hairstyle, you first want to start with wet hair says Joshua Gambrell, celebrity hair stylist at New York City’s Lotus Salon. Run a large, wide-toothed comb through your strands to detangle it, and follow by blotting your hair with a towel.
Kate Middleton’s Hair Transformation Throughout the Years
Her dark brown hair is still soft, thanks to the perfect curls at the ends, reminiscent of Old Hollywood glam. For her wedding, the duchess opted to wear her hair half-up half-down with a tiara and veil. Attending the wedding of Laura Parker-Bowles and Harry Lope in 2006, Kate Middleton wore her brown hair in soft curls with a natural lip color. During a visit to Cornwall in June 2021, the duchess debuted a brighter hair color for summer. Instead of uniformed curls, Princess Catherine styled her locks in barely-there beach waves. A stylist from one of The Duchess of Cambridge’s favourite hair salons has revealed how you can achieve her signature bouncy blow dry without needing to see a hair stylist.
‘Kate’s got great skin, so she doesn’t need a heavy foundation, and so I imagine she uses these sort of lighter, more sheer bases,’ says Desmond. Then, he sets the entire centre section of my hair around large velcro rollers, giving me a sort of mohican of rollers from back to front — which, it seems, is the secret to Kate’s bouncy castle-esque curls. With my colour sorted, it’s time to work on the length and volume. And skin as smooth as gold-top Duchy milk (does Kate even have pores?), with smoulderingly smokey make-up. Kate's longtime hairstylist, the aforementioned Richard Ward, did a complete breakdown of his signature "Chelsea Blow Dry" in a video tutorial with People and the essential first step includes detangling. "This look is all about having the hair in the best condition possible," says Richard.

Having attended a few notable sporting events in the last couple of weeks, the Duchess of Cambridge’s looks have included a blush pink dress from Beulah and jeans and a white blazer. Her immaculate blow-dry, which has long been subject to praise all over the world. Here, James Pryce, who created Middleton's wedding day hairdo and is now known as the Middleton family hairdresser, shares his top tips. First, rough dry with your fingers until your hair no longer drips water and starts looking dry. While we know it’s tempting, don’t flip your hair upside down as that creates too much body than is required to copy Kate’s look.
To achieve a proper Kate-Over, I must first address my colour. Back in 2011, when she married Prince William, we shared similarly dark brown hair. Today, though, she’s updated her look, softening and lightening in a flattering way; plumping for a lighter brown with almost golden streaks through it — a shade some call ‘bronde’. While fans aren’t exactly sure when Middleton got her hair done, this did mark her first outing after officially becoming the new Princess of Wales (after William’s father became King Charles III following the Queen’s passing).

"This is how I prepare Kate Middleton's hair in my dreams," jokes Dmitri. "To achieve Kate's hair style you would first prepare your hair with the appropriate shampoo and conditioner. The hair must be clean so that the style bounces and lasts. In the 90s there was your Jen Aniston 'do and your Winona Ryder crop. In the noughties there was Mischa Barton and Sarah Jessica Parker's respectively poker straight and curly tresses. And, more recently, lovey locked ladies like your Blake Livelys and your Alexa Chungs.
Finish the look by curling the top sections of your hair with a one and a half inch curling iron. To create longevity to the style, hold the curl in your hand until it cools and then let it fall. If your hair falls flat easily, try going down a size in the curling iron and use hair spray before and after you curl it.
While her grown-out highlights add dimension to the long dark hair, there’s no longer a hint of blonde. Middleton also starts going for extreme volume, while keeping the now-signature soft curls on her ends. After Kate Middleton got married to Prince William, she lightens up her chestnut brown hair with some soft, warm balayage, a sweeping highlight technique that was becoming popular at the time. Brodie from Rokstar Salonz recommends asking for diffused, natural highlights to achieve Kate's effortless rich warm brown. After donning highlighted, relatively long locks for the latter half of 2019, Princess Catherine switched things up and returned to her medium golden-brown roots. At a UK-Africa Investment Summit reception at Buckingham Palace in late January 2020, the Duchess of Cambridge and Cornwall debuted freshly cut bangs and pumped up the volume on her signature curls.
‘A side-swept “gringe” like Kate’s is good because it is forgiving and easy to grow out if the woman who has it isn’t a fan. I think it’s given a lot of women who have longer hair ideas, too, for mixing up their look,’ he says. Kate’s hair is always in amazing condition, so shine spray is a great way to get glossy locks like hers. Using wide flat irons is an easier and faster way to achieve this without having to spend hours blow-drying your hair. "Wella Colour Id is an amazing tool that we use in the salon to create incredibly natural colouring," says Brodie.
Once you have parted your hair, neatly brush the top half backwards and using hair grips, slide them into position to ensure the hair is securely fastened. Before you start Kate’s look, it is important to spray your hair with a heat protectant. After you have roughly blow dried your hair, separate it into four sections. However, during a visit to the charity Centrepoint, Kate's husband Prince William described her famous locks as a 'nightmare'.
This helps hold it better and gives it more time to fall, says Nicholas Penna, Jr., owner and lead stylist at SalonCapri in Newton and Dedham, MA. Penna recommends using Shu Uemura Sheer Laquer Hair Spray ($45). “These salon professional colours are ultra conditioning and give richness and intensity. The colour ebbs away naturally and you only need to have it re-done every few months,” Richard explains. To recreate Kate’s look on me, he started with the base — a blend of Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue and Pixi Beauty Balm.
