Top hair hack to achieve Princess Kate’s perfect signature blow-dry | Royal | News
The Princess of Wales’s signature blow-dry is a key part of her public image but is a great style that anyone can adopt. Despite being a timless classic, the 43-year-old has developed it over time.
Chic blowout’s were revived in the 1990s and continued into the early 2000s. But thanks to fashion icon Princess Kate, she bought back the trend when she joined the Royal Family, and since contimued to spark a frenzy over how she creates the well-polished look.
Instead of rigid tight curls, Kate opts for a less voluminous tone and encorporates a more looser wave. However, it always looks perfect thanks to the plump bounce it gives off when she carries out engagments.
You can rock the look at almost any occasion. WELLA hair expert Georgina Murphy is a Master of Colour and Senior Stylist who owns the Vintage Lounge, and exclusively told the Express.co.uk her secrets.
Georgina claimed that you need five essentials tools to achieve the Kate’s hairdo. She told us: “First up you need a product that will prevent frizz but also smooth out your hair.
“This has to be applied before you dry it. You must prep your hair to prevent frizz as well as always being mindful of heat damage,” she continued .
Georgina reccomeneded the EIMI Flowing Form Anti Frizz Hair Balm as it not only provides heat protection but allows natural flexible movement giving it that fuller bounce effect. You can buy it from Amazon if you click here for just £8.99.
It boasts rave reviews with one user saying: “I can’t believe how good this is! I only use one pump even though it says to use several on the bottle, but it’s definitely cut down the frizz and it’s also cut down my drying time a bit as well. Fabulous stuff!”
Georgina added: “Gently lift the roots and blow dry in all directions. Avoid shaking the blow dryer and hair at the same time, as this can cause frizz.
“Continue to section off your hair and use a large barrell curling iron. Just make sure you start to at the bottom, and curl one to two inch sections of hair away from your face.
“Always hold it vertically and curl upwards. For the top layers, hold the barrel horizontally as it add volume.”
