The Princess of Wales headed to Southport on Thursday to meet responders, the families of survivors, and survivors of the horrific knife attack in the city on July 29 at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. It was the royal's first working event since she completed her chemotherapy treatment.
The 42-year-old looked so beautiful, delighting fans in an autumnal outfit, consisting of a chocolate brown coat, a lovely burgundy, polka dot dress and high heels. As always, her beautiful mane was her crowning glory and it was teased into a lightly curled style, no doubt courtesy of one of her famous blow drys.
We could not help but notice how super long Kate's hair looked.
The wife of Prince William has admittedly always sported long hair, but she has dabbled in slightly shorter styles over the years, choosing to opt for a long bob on more than one occasion.
But now, her hair appears to have great length and is almost down to her mid-waist; the longest it's been in a very long time.
We spoke to the incredible Tatiana Karelina; an international hair extension specialist. Tatiana caters to the hair of many celebrities and she gave us the verdict on Kate's mermaid-style mane.
The talented professional explained: "I've really noticed that Kate's hair is much longer recently. Since she's been seen out and about, quite a number of our clients have asked to replicate her luxurious waves and gorgeous rich colour.
"In the last few months, the Princess has drawn attention to her hair, especially after her first public appearances following chemotherapy treatment. Her hair has always been iconic, and I have to say it has remained a talking point as there are a few subtle changes.
" I've noticed a few face-framing strands while maintaining her trademark healthy, voluminous hair. Despite undergoing treatment, her hair still looks incredibly healthy and classy."
How to get long hair like Kate
Many people want to emulate the mother of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis' hair. Tatiana recommends using hair extensions to achieve that royal look.
"To achieve a similar look, professionally applied good quality hair extensions are a great option. Clip-ins are ideal for clients who want occasional length and volume, while micro rings offer a longer-lasting more permanent option. Kate’s signature style often features soft waves with a smooth glossy finish. We recommend using a large-barrel curling iron for loose waves and a round brush for volume at the roots."
