Richard Ward is the man in the know when it comes to looking after the Duchess of Cambridge’s gruaig and he’s revealed her hair care do’s and dont’s.

Speaking to Mail Online, Richard had two or three very important points to make when chatting about K Middy’s crowing glory.

1) The blow-dry is KEY

If you’re after expensive-looking hair like Kate’s, the key is the blow dry.  And it all starts with squeaky clean hair, which should be dried when it is 75% wet.

2) Straighten with caution

He says the worst thing you can do is overdo it with the straighteners, particularly if you’ve rough dried it. You’re just going to end up with a wild mane that no amount of struggling with the straightener can fix.

3) Don’t go overboard with product

Steer away from using a large amount of the one product and instead, “cocktail small amounts”.

Rub the product into your hands and turn your head upside down when applying to help achieve Kate-like volume.
