Hair Comment:
Royal.uk has been updated. Please go take a look at the Duchess's page and ask yourself what the pictures chosen have to say about how she likes to wear her hair or otherwise, how she sees herself.

This is the heading photo
https://www.royal.uk/sites/default/...mages/biography/pa-25555222.jpg?itok=Zp4_q75a. Yes, hair in face, those bangs, messy and all that we complain about.
That she chose/approved this as her lead photo says to me that this is how she likes to see herself and that's it's fairly unlikely that she's going to change it any time soon.
In general, I'd read the image presented as not fussy, approachable, warm and a bit proud of the length and texture of her hair. I read that image as trying to be herself rather than setting a trend or following what other people see as "royal."
And I think we can object until the cows come home, but we are not going to change that.
Now, watch, she'll cut it all off in two months and I'll look a greater fool than usual.
