Long and luscious
Prior to marrying Prince Albert, Charlene sported a headful of long, creamy blonde locks with the glossiest high-shine. For a sparkling Monaco Red Cross Ball dinner held in 2006, Charlene styled her lengthy locks to perfection, sprucing up her look with stacks of volume and an elegant side part.
Braving the bob
Two years later, Charlene fully embraced the platinum blonde look with additional bright highlights running throughout. Colour shake-up aside, the mother-of-two also braved the bob, opting for a fresh cropped look with plenty of movement.
Playful and punky
Ever the experimental style queen, Charlene took her hair in a totally different direction in May 2009. Eschewing her sleek, elegant bob, the Monegasque royal attended the 62nd Annual Cannes Film Festival rocking a punky updo complete with gravity-defying hairspray.

A whimsical wedding bun
On her magical wedding day, Princess Charlene of Monaco kept things classic with a bouffant bridal bun worn at the nape of her neck. The hair around her crown was teased for added volume, while a sparkling hair accessory completed her dazzling hairdo.
The pixie cut
Post-wedding, Charlene experimented once again with a cropped look - but this time with exposed dark roots. At the wedding of Princess Madeleine of Sweden and Christopher O'Neill, the former Olympian sported a modern coiffure which looked fresh as a daisy.
Tousled updo
In 2019, Charlene was spotted with noticeably longer locks. Whilst her cropped look enjoyed several years in the limelight, the mother-of-two opted to switch things up in 2019 with a gently tousled updo à la Kate Winslet.
Bold, blunt bob
But the longer look didn't last long! In 2020, Charlene opted for a drastic hair transformation in the form of an uber-sleek, blunt bob which fell just below her cheekbones. She debuted the look on the red carpet ahead of the Monte-Carlo Gala for Planetary Health.
A rebellious transformation
Meanwhile, just months later, Charlene was spotted rocking a rebellious look at the traditional Christmas tree ceremony which is held annually at the Monaco Palace. Ditching her bob, Charlene experimented with a half-shaved haircut with added 'bronde' highlights.
Embracing the dark side
The punk-inspired look appeared to be a brief interlude in Charlene's hair history, as in 2022, she was spotted at King Charles's coronation with a cropped brunette look woven with buttery blonde highlights.
Returning to her roots
Charlene returned to her roots in January 2024 with a creamy blonde mop of hair reminiscent of her earlier hairdos. She debuted her sophisticated new look amid the traditional festivities of Sainte Devote - and it's most definitely a winner in our books.
