THE Princess of Wales rarely has a hair out of place when she steps out for an engagement, and it’s all thanks to a simple hack that anyone can try.
On Monday, Kate paid her respects during the commemorations marking Holocaust Memorial Day alongside her husband, Prince William.
She looked effortlessly chic, wearing a tailored long blazer coat, trousers, and a five-strand pearl necklace.
However, it was her immaculate hair that added the finishing touch to her elegant look.
Michael Gray, a multi-award-winning hairstylist, has revealed the secret tricks behind the bouncy blow-dry look that Kate is known for.
He explained that many people still forget the importance of having regular haircuts every eight weeks, even when growing their hair.
This, he says, ensures that hair stays “lovely, long, and healthy.”
Speaking to Hello! Magazine, he said: “[It’s important to] take off the very ends to maintain your hair’s health.
“During certain moments in women’s lives, hair changes, even when they reach their 40s.”
Michael emphasised that regular trims will not stop you from growing your hair and that it’s still possible to maintain “long, luscious hair like Princess Kate.”
He also recommends using stimulating hair products, which he believes are part of Kate’s hair care routine.
Michael suggests using the Nioxin hair range to achieve healthy locks.

This shampoo lathers onto the scalp to remove impurities and excess oil, creating the optimal scalp environment to promote thicker, stronger, and more resilient-looking hair.
Additionally, he recommends the Living Proof Scalp Care Density Serum, available from Cult Beauty for £54.
Finally, Michael suggests incorporating hair growth and strengthening supplements into your routine, such as Perfectil.
Professional hairstylist Tom Pike has also noted that Kate has recently “upgraded” her hairstyle to the ‘Hollywood wave.’
Speaking to Hello! magazine, he explained: “To achieve this, you would use either a smoothing cream or a good blow-dry spray.
“Blow-dry your hair smooth, then, using a large barrel wand, twist the hair around the tool, taking slightly thicker sections as you work. Once this is done, gently brush it out.”
