The Princess of Wales was the epitome of regal elegance as she stepped out alongside the Duchess of Edinburgh on Garter Day 2025.
Most striking about her beautiful look was the royal’s Rapunzel hair that was the longest it’s ever looked. Tumbling down her back, Kate, 43, wore her hair down with front sections pulled back from her face to accommodate her new Sean Barrett hat.

Eva adds that though it might sound obvious, regular visits to the salon to maintain the colour and to trim the ends are also a must with long hair.
“I cannot emphasise how much a healthy diet impacts the hair of our health – particularly growth – so I’m sure that Catherine follows a well-balanced diet, packed full of protein, rich in iron and containing a colourful mix of vegetables, fruit and healthy fat, too,” the trichologist adds.

“But, in essence, good hair health and keeping long, luscious locks in tip top condition takes work – so Kate and her stylist are obviously doing a great job and making a concerted effort to maintain such beautiful hair, which always looks in fabulous condition,” she concludes.
A master of the half-updo
The fabulous appearance of Kate’s hair is also down to its expert styling. Jason Collier, celebrity hairstylist and founder of Studio23, whose clients include Victoria Beckham, Sienna Miller, and Eva Longoria, says that what stands out most about Kate’s Garter Day look is how it is perfectly soft yet sculpted.

Jason advises that there are a number of ways women can look after their hair to maintain a glossy finish like Kate’s.

“Avoiding over washing, using silk pillowcases, limiting tight hairstyles that can cause tension, and choosing the right hair tools all add up. Clearly, her hair team understands the importance of preserving the hair’s integrity while achieving consistently beautiful looks.”
