The Duchess of Sussex has incredible hair - there’s no denying that - but have you ever wondered what she’d look like as a blonde? We asked HELLO!’s art supremo, Hannah, to give us a glimpse as to what Meghan would look like if she ever wanted to follow in the footsteps of Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner or Beyonce, and see if blondes really do have more fun. We think you’ll agree, it’s quite the transformation…

We doubt Meghan would ever be brave enough to hit the (peroxide) bottle, but if she did, what would it entail? We asked hairstylist to the stars Jack Howard for his thoughts: “As a colourist I would suggest steering Meghan away from going blonde initially. The contrast from her natural colour to light blonde is too steep, however there are some other options to consider. At the moment ‘lived in hair’ is very on trend, avoiding the ‘just been done’ look. Meghan could go three or four shades lighter to a dark blonde/light brunette as I feel she would suit a ‘bronde’ look much more.”

Ah yes, bronde - the perfect mix of both blonde and brunette.

The L’Oréal Professionnel ambassador, who can be found tending to the tresses of many A-list stars at the Paul Edmonds salon in London, continued: “If she is going lighter, I would use a lovely glazing of L’Oréal Professionnel Dia Light to close the cuticle and add shine for camera-ready hair. For a treatment, beautiful healthy hair is always the aim, so I would suggest using L’Oréal Professionnel Smartbond with the colour in salon and using the take home conditioner once a week afterwards.”

So there we have it, should Meghan dream of lighter tresses, she has all the advice she needs. And if she's really keen to try out a new hair colour craze, perhaps she could go for the Cold Brew Coffee style. The Starbucks-inspired hue has taken Instagram by storm this summer.

While we’re having fun giving Meghan a new look, how about switching it to some other colours…

Could you imagine the royal hanging out with the Queen with shocking pink hair? No, us neither.

Meghan with ginger hair

Ok, maybe there’s only room for one famous redhead in this marriage, but we think Meghan looks phenomenal with ginger-coloured tresses.

Brunettes often go for red hues when Autumn approaches so we wouldn’t be surprised if Meghan added a touch of copper to her look come September, and it wouldn’t be a mad move.
