Meghan Markle's New Tousled Hairstyle Is Her Most Effortless Look Yet
This textured 'do couldn't be chicer
www.elle.comMeghan Markle recently debuted a refined updo during her Australia tour, switching from a low ponytail to a tidy bun that echoed her working royal style. This "flawless" hairstyle, paired with khaki and beige attire, drew attention on the tour's first day visiting a children's hospital.[8]
Earlier in 2026, she sported straightened, elbow-length hair at the Sundance Film Festival premiere of Cookie Queens, elevating her sleek look with a subtle flattering effect. At the NBA All-Star game in February, she wore loose waves with '00s-inspired face-framing layers for a polished yet relaxed vibe.[4][6]
