Princess Anne's historical long hairstyle resembles Catherine, Princess of Wales

Princess Anne has maintained a signature updo hairstyle for over five decades, making her recent historical photographs appear strikingly different. A 1971 portrait taken for her 21st birthday shows her with voluminous, wavy long hair and a bold makeup look, including blue eyeshadow and pink lip gloss.

This historical styling, which featured a large, asymmetrical gold headpiece, bears a resemblance to the voluminous hairstyles often seen on Catherine, Princess of Wales. While hair stylists for productions like ‘The Crown’ have reportedly spent up to two hours recreating her signature look, the Princess has noted that her own daily styling takes only 10 to 15 minutes.
