Meghan Markle showed off her new hair colour in her latest public appearance.

The Duchess of Sussex swapped her sleek light brown locks for trendy mermaid waves in a new dark brown colour as she stepped out in Los Angeles over the weekend.


Meghan, 43, turned to her team of "hippy hairdressers" for a dazzling new look.

The duchess donned the new hairstyle to attend an LA children's hospital gala.

For the occasion, the mother-of-two re-wore a red Carolina Herrera gown, which she debuted at a Veterans Day event in New York in 2021, but had the voluminous overskirt removed.

Following the event, the High Brow Hippie Salon, which also styled Meghan's hair for the ESPN Espy Awards in July and the Invictus Games in February, gushed about their high-profile client on Instagram.

Sharing photos of Meghan walking hand-in-hand with Kelly McKee Zajfen on the red carpet, the salon wrote: "Glowing and gorgeous friends Kelly and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, attending Children's Hospital Los Angeles Gala.

"Cut and style for Meghan @hectorsworldd. Color for both, Kadi."

The post confirmed that the duchess had dyed her hair a new colour for the glitzy occasion.

Kadi Lee is a professional hairstylist who has been friends with Meghan for several years.

She co-founded the High Brow Hippie Salon in 2019 with Myka Harris.

The salon's post on social media amassed over 1,020 "likes" in 15 hours, with Meghan's close friend and makeup artist Daniel Martin writing: "Gorgeous as always."

The salon and its co-founders count Julia Roberts, Elizabeth Hurley, Kristin Davies and Gwyneth Paltrow among its celebrity clients.

It is situated in the bohemian LA neighbourhood of Venice and was founded by Harris and Lee in 2019 following the success of their shared blog.

In May 2023, the salon revealed that Meghan had booked in for a hair colouring session with Lee ahead of the Women of Vision awards in New York.

Delving into the duchess's treatment, Lee, who charges $550 (£420) for a full Balayage, hinted that Meghan goes to the salon for regular gloss treatments to maintain her hair's health.
