Meghan Markel's debut at Saturday’s Trooping the Colour was completely different from all her previous looks, her hair was curled blowout.
The Duchess of Sussex's signature hairstyle is a messy bun, which she wore at her May 19 wedding to Prince Harry — and the Duchess-sleek chignon she sported at a May 22 birthday celebration for Prince Charles.
The bouncy blowout is a look of Meghan’s new sister-in-law, Kate Middleton. Kate’s curls tend to be styled more loosely, and she generally opts for more volume. Her wedding-day hair stylist, Richard Ward, previously told PEOPLE exactly how he achieves the look, with tips on everything from drying the hair (on a low speed) to how to remove the rollers (there’s twirling involved).

“It’s not just about Kate’s hair — it is beautifully finished, frizz-free, shiny hair,” says Ward. “It’s a hairstyle that is well finished.”
On her engagement too, Meghan left her hair open, she wore her brunette tresses in a sleek, straightened style, and during a visit to Birmingham, England, in March, she styled her hair in loose waves.
Meghan’s wedding hairdresser Serge Normant previously said, “It’s a messy bun, we call it. Messy in a controlled way — making sure it doesn’t become a whole mess after a few hours!”
“Her style is so easy and not contrived,” said Normant after the wedding. “I wasn’t about reinvention. She has a beautiful head of hair and is gorgeous, so it was just easy.”
Meghan also broke style statement on Saturday with her choice of a bare-shouldered Carolina Herrera dress. Usually, royal women wear long sleeves to Trooping.
