The Princess of Wales is known for always appearing poised and immaculate in public. As a senior working royal, Prince William's wife always looks pristine, from her shoes up to her hair.

Speaking of Catherine's incredible brunette mane, you can be sure the royal will sport lightly curled locks wherever she is. The princess has always sported a 'Chelsea Blowdry' created for her by Richard Ward ahead of her wedding in 2011.

Catherine's hair has always been her crowning glory

The royal's glossy hair always tumbles over her shoulders with large barrel curls, resulting in a full-bodied look. Catherine's voluminous curls have become a signature of her style for the past 15 years.

The royal famously graced the cover of British Vogue in 2016, when she was known as the Duchess of Cambridge. She was photographed wearing an array of heritage-inspired outfits for the fashion spread, which was shot in Norfolk.

In the accompanying interview conducted by the former editor of the publication, Alexandra Shulman, it was revealed that the mother of three arrived at the shoot in a look you wouldn't expect.

"We drank coffee and everyone prepped until the Duchess arrived, in jeans and a parka, her hair in big rollers, with a bright, inclusive smile," Alexandra penned. Discussing her entrance, she added: "She walked through the small cottage door with her hairdresser, Amanda Tucker, who was dragging a wheelie case of products. The Duchess joked about how she must have appeared to anyone who saw her driving the car in her rollers, before introducing herself to everyone she hadn't yet met."

Amanda Tucker is one of Catherine's closest friends and has been working for the royal family since Prince William and Prince Harry were boys. She's been styling Kate's hair since 2012, and her first job with Catherine was to accompany her on the Diamond Jubilee tour of Southeast Asia in 2012.

In 2018, during a visit to Norway and Sweden with the royal couple, the hairstylist posted a picture of several different hair products on Instagram and wrote: "Think that's everything! #worktrip #packing." The setup contained 13 brushes, seven combs, two hairdryers and three curling tongs, and the featured products included Kiehl's Crème with Silk Groom, Charles Worthington mousse and L'Oréal Elnett hairspray.
