WHILE Kate Middleton definitely has an army of the top facialists and beauty gurus, the Duchess of Cambridge has discovered an easy way to take years off her face – all with a simple change of a hairstyle.
Those who’ve been following the Royal family, know that Kate used to rock a bouncy blow-dry, but on recent events she’s been sporting another, more sleek style.
The style in question is her long hair elegantly tucked behind her ears, The Daily Mail reported.
First spotted during the royal tour of the Caribbean to beat the frizz in the humid temperatures, the look has since been carried to home as well.
Lily Jeffreys, Senior Stylist and Colour Technician at Taylor Taylor London, explained that Kate wearing her hair tucked behind is a subtle way to open up her delicate facial features.
”Tucking the hair behind the ears also helps to make her cheekbones and jawline pop, showing off her luminous skin and bringing attention to her eyes, which really elevates her face and gives her a youthful glow.”

It’s not just Lily who’s observed the subtle – yet powerful – change.
Master Stylist Nick Willis at Charles Worthington Salons has also noticed the Duchess sporting her hair straighter, longer and with a middle parting.
”She is effortlessly tucking her hair behind the ear for a sophisticated yet casual look.
”This Seventies longer hair vibe is massively on trend for summer, it’s easy to maintain and looks classy for any occasion and on Kate is sheer elegance.
”This is a contrast from her old style; her bouncy blowout had volume and movement whereas these days she is seen wearing her hair more sleek and smooth.
”By tucking her hair behind the ear, Kate is revealing her strong bone structure. This is a great trick to show off your eyes and cheekbones and in turn is a fabulous anti ageing tip,” he continued.

What’s more, not only does it make for a more elegant and youthful appearance, it’s also a lower maintenance hairstyle that doesn’t require too much effort and time.
”It’s a quick and easy way to make her plain, straight hair look more sleek and sophisticated,” said Lily.
”It’s also easy for her to adjust and keep it looking polished all day without her hair stylist constantly needing to be on-hand.”

”She is no longer hiding behind a sweeping fringe but is now allowing her hair to show off her natural beauty and gives her an open, fresh look,” agreed Martin Palmer, Salon Manager at Nicky Clarke’s Birmingham salon.
Just like the other stylists, Nick also emphasised how well this simple hairstyle lends itself to playful and fun accessorizing, saying: ”Kate makes a dramatic statement with her earrings.”
