The royal family are a constant source of inspiration when it comes to fashion, etiquette and hairstyles. Here's the fan-favorite hair influencer, according to the most tutorials on YouTube.

The royal family are a constant source of inspiration when it comes to fashion, etiquette and hairstyles. Brits are always keen to hear about the royals' hair and beauty tips to try and recreate some of the famous styles and beauty regimes at home.
With this in mind, LongevitaHairTransplant.com took to YouTube to find out which royal's hair we seek to recreate the most. They searched for tutorials for each royal family member's hairstyles, and tallied up the number of videos and total views to see which styles are most favored.
The royal hair we take most inspiration from:
Royal Family Member | Number of tutorials on YouTube | Total views for all tutorials on YouTube | |
#1 | Princess Diana | 11 | 4,901,624 |
#2 | Kate Middleton | 30 | 3,568,689 |
#3 | Meghan Markle | 17 | 1,556,764 |
#4 | Queen Elizabeth II | 2 | 18,488 |
#5 | Princess Eugenie | 1 | 11,342 |
1. Princess Diana
The royal family member whose hair we're most inspired by is Princess Diana. Her signature short, perfectly styled locks racked up nearly 5 million views on YouTube, and featured in 11 different tutorial videos.
2. Kate Middleton
Kate Middleton is also giving us major hair envy. There are 30 separate tutorial videos to help recreate her flawless hair at home, which have racked up a total of over 3.5 million views between them. As Kate and William are creating their own YouTube channel, fans may have their fingers crossed for some hair tutorials.
3. Meghan Markle
Behind Kate, but still with 1.5 million total views, is the luscious hair of Meghan Markle. There are currently 17 hair tutorials on YouTube, ranging from Meghan's wedding 'do to her everyday styles. The most popular tutorials recreate her classic low-sitting messy bun.
4. Queen Elizabeth II
The fourth most recreated royal hair is that of Queen Elizabeth herself. She racked up nearly 18,500 views over just two tutorial videos. The video with the highest views aims to recreate her look from the 1950s, whilst the other is a more up-to-date look.
5. Princess Eugenie
Rounding up the top five royals' hair we're most jealous of is Princess Eugenie. Despite only featuring in one YouTube tutorial, the video recreating her royal wedding look has been viewed 11,300 times so far!
