Kate Middletons at university
Kate Middleton, born Catherine Elizabeth Middleton, has been on quite a journey during the last eight years, thanks to her relationship with Prince William which has propelled her into the public eye. Recently engaged and now set to marry in what is already being hailed the ‘wedding of the decade’ (no pressure then!), one thing’s for sure, Kate’s life will never be the same again.
It’s not surprising she has undertaken quite a transformation from young 21-year-old student to 29-year-old princess-to-be. From her corkscrew curls at university to her new deluxe blow-dries and flawless complexion, we can’t help but think Kate will adapt really quite well to royal, married life.
March, 2002
Kate models in a university fashion show, where she allegedly first caught William’s eye. Her hair is curlier and more natural looking – these are clearly the pre-professional blow-dry days.Need to get summer-ready? Try our Ten Summer Beauty Buys Under Ten Pounds

Braving the cold in a Russian style hat at the Cheltenham 2006 races, Kate opts for barely-there make-up with only a dash of eye liner applied to her lower lashline and a swish of pink blusher to give her a healthy glow.

Another day, another hat. This time Kate keeps her long hair looking sleek and stylish under a French beret. We love her darker, filled in eye brows and peachy eye shadow which really finishes off her look.

Kate Middleton, August 2009
Kate’s hair just keeps getting longer and it looks as though she has had some subtle highlights added to break up the block colour. It’s full marks again for this stylish wedding headpiece.

Kate Middleton, November 2010
At a photocall to mark their recent engagement, Prince William and Kate Middleton are a picture of happiness. Kate’s trademark long brunette hair has been blow-dried to perfection with loose curls and flicks added to the ends to create movement. We can’t wait to see what her wedding hair and make-up will look like...

Isn’t she cute! Kate couldn’t look happy whilst out on official visits on the lead up to her April wedding. She’s really working on that quintessential Middleton blowdry, particularly with those loose curls and her hair swept across one shoulder.

On her wedding day, Kate famously did her own make-up, but left her hair in the capable hands of her hairdresser Richard Ward. She decided against an up-do, and instead kept her trademark mane loose and curly, going for a half-up half-down ‘do so William would recognise her at the aisle. Ahhh.

At Epsom, Kate impressed doubters with a rare up-do. With her token long brunette hair pulled up into an elegant chignon, she looked ready for a day at the races. She pulled off the look with graceful aplomb, proving she’s worth all the hair accolades sent her way.

Another new look for the Duchess of Cambridge as she steps off the airplane in Canada for the start of her North American tour with Prince William. During the flight she’s twisted half of her blow-dried brunette locks into a messy chignon. We love it.

Kate has really pulled out the stops fashion and beauty-wise on her first official royal tour of North America. Instead of opting for her classic
blow-dry,
Kate
has showcased a few different looks whilst in Canada (probably something to do with her hair stylist, James Pryce from the
Richard Ward
salon, being part of her entourage!) We particularly love this
up-do that she rocked at the National Canada Day evening celebrations!

Kate is known for her trademark blow dry and curls, as well as her fondness for black eye liner and minimal make-up, but while on tour in the States, she’s pulled out a few new hairstyles. We love her half-up, half-down hairstyle here, with her elegant bun. Proof that she’s starting to branch out from the gorgeous look that’s made her such a beauty and fashion icon.

A red carpet appearance in Hollywood means one thing – a mega-watt blow dry for the Duchess! Pulling out all the stops, she goes for an even more voluminous curly hairstyle than usual. She’s also gone for a smoky eye and strong eye brow, as well as a rosy lip for the occasion, stepping up her normal make-up routine.
