Duchess Catherine Middleton, or Princess Kate as she’s affectionally referred, is a new style icon and one very lucky lady. Not only is she married to the handsome future King of England, but Kate also knows how to make a budget buy from Zara look like a million bucks, and let’s be honest – she has some of the most enviable hair in the world. With glossy, deep chocolate color and voluminous bouncy curls, Kate’s tresses exude her signature style…royally regal yet effortless chic. 

 Good news,  you don’t need to be a royal to sport Kate’s glamorous hairstyle. With just five simple    steps you too can have Kate’s coveted curls.

1. After shampooing work a small amount of anti-frizz serum into your hair then spray the roots with a volumizing spray. Kate Middleton’s hairstylist of 10 years James Pryce uses L’Oreal Professional Texture Expert Volumizing Spray on the Princess.
2. Next, you want to section your hair and clip each section up so you can begin the blow-dry. 
3. Make sure you have a medium size,boar-bristle round brush which adds body and volume plus holds the hair taught which helps you get super shiny hair like Kate. Dry each section individually, rolling the hair through the brush.  Once each section is dry blast it with a cold shot to set the hair.
4. Grab a large barrel curling iron and curl large sections of hair so you get big bouncy waves and not tight ringlets. Pin curls up and let them cool completely, which will help the hair set and keep your style bouncy all day long.
5. Unpin the curls, spray lightly with a good hairspray like L’Oreal Elnett Satin Hairspray and run your fingers through to separate. If you want a little extra shine feel free to spritz with a shine serum.

 You’ll be ready to head out the door feeling confident, looking gorgeous and ready to find your prince charming!
