Princess Beatrice is having a moment. After years of being a fashion underdog, royalty's It-girl has finally bloomed, topping Tatler's coveted 'Best Dressed List 2024' which formerly crowned the Princess of Wales as society's supreme sartorialist.
It's not just 36-year-old Princess Beatrice's fashion that is making headlines. Her enviably sleek auburn hair has developed a serious reputation for being the ultimate 'hair goals'.

Whenever Princess Beatrice is presented with the opportunity to showcase her impeccable flair for feminine fits, bold florals and timeless silhouettes, she usually does so alongside debuting a new 'do.

The late Queen Elizabeth II's granddaughter hasn't always had the vibrant red hair she shares with her mother, Sarah Ferguson, and sister, Princess Eugenie, however.
In an unearthed photograph captured on Princess Beatrice's first day of school in 1991, the young royal can be seen sporting a full head of icy blonde hair.

This is because the production of melanin (the pigment responsible) usually starts developing very slowly, meaning that lots of fair-haired children can go on to have very dark hair later in life.

The royal family prefers to keep very tight-lipped about who is responsible for their hair and makeup at royal events, leaving the identity of their glam team an ongoing mystery.
