Princess Royal aka Princess Anne is also one of the Royals whose sense of style - particularly the hairstyle - has changed over the years.
Princess Anne’s unseen photo with long hair
The Royal Family’s most low-key member once supported long hair before the beehive hairstyle became her classic. In an unearthed photo from the archives, Princess Anne is seen with longer locks while she attended Wimbledon in 1967.
In the photo, tracked down by Hello! Magazine, Princess Anne has her hair tucked inside her dress to give it a faux bob look. Seated in the Royal box, Princess Anne seemed relaxed as she enjoyed the men's singles final between John Newcombe and Wilhelm Bungert. The beehive hairstyle she currently supports has been her classic look for more than 40 years.
The Royal has always been hailed for her low-key profile and understated styles. When the royal family's Instagram shared a picture of Princess Anne’s lounge, fans loved that it looked like any other house in England. One even wrote ‘Love it, feels like home’ on the social media post.

The 72-year-old is being honoured with a new documentary Anne: The Princess Royal. Her hairstyle, being an iconic part of her look, took The Crown’s hair department around 2 hours to create.
In the documentary, Princess Anne revealed her surprise over the two hours spent creating her hairstyle as it only takes her 10-15 minutes. She said:
Actually, I read an article the other day about the – I don't watch Netflix and The Crown... but the actress was talking about how long it took them to do their hair like I did. And I'm thinking, 'How could you possibly take that long?' I mean, it takes me 10 or 15 minutes.
