    The Princess of Wales has become iconic for her gorgeous bouncy blow-drys.

    Whether sharing snippets of her family life with Prince William and three children or out on public engagements, the royal, 42, always dons a pristine hairdo that perfectly completes her flawless look.

    But it wasn't always immaculate updos and perfectly preened waves. Kate lived in a secluded farmhouse on the remote Welsh island of Anglesey following her royal wedding in 2011 while her husband worked as a search and rescue pilot in the RAF.

    Kate's hair featured highlights

    The quiet island life meant switching out her professional dos for a more rustic look, and it suited her down to the ground.

    Kate wore her hair natural in Anglesey

    The then-Duchess of Cambridge, who lived in Anglesey until 2013, was spotted at The Ring O'Fire Anglesey Coastal Ultra Marathon in Holyhead where she sported a mane of tumbling curls.

    Her long hair fell over her shoulders and was not neatly parted down the middle as she often wears it. Her locks also featured natural highlighted strands around her face, seemingly bleached by the sun.

    Outfit-wise, the mother of three chose to wear black skinny jeans with a white printed blouse, khaki fitted blazer, and heeled wedges.

    Kate's hair was a rebellious royal look

    Her royal wedding hair was a rule-breaking style. The bride wore a romantic half updo which framed her face effortlessly though it is royal tradition that brides wear their hair up.

    Catherine has trendy curtain bangs

    Prince William's wife has continued to define the royal hair game with her blow-drys which in recent years have incorporated on-trend curtain bangs.

    Princess Kate has nailed the silky blow-dry

    The King 's daughter-in-law has also brought her silky waves into looks that have featured timeless headwear.

    In April 2022, the mother of three attended the Anzac Day Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey wearing an oversized white headband from Jane Taylor with a black bow at the back.
