With spring just around the corner, Kate Middleton has opted for a fresh, new look. The Duchess of Cambridge debuted one of her shortest haircuts to date as she kicked off her royal visit to Ireland on Tuesday. The mom of three’s glossy locks are significantly shorter than they were last week. At a special charity performance of Dear Evan Hansen on February 25 in London, Kate’s long tresses fell past her shoulders, but now rest just slightly below them.

Princess Charlotte ’s mom styled her hair in bouncy curls for day one of the royal visit. Kate kept her freshly trimmed locks out of her face wearing a trendy velvet padded headband by Lele Sadoughi for her arrival to Dublin .

Prince William and Kate undertook the trip at the request of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to “highlight the many strong links between the UK and Ireland.” The palace previously stated: “The UK’s links with Ireland are extensive, and The Duke and Duchess are looking forward to building a lasting friendship with the Irish people.”
