Kate Middleton will wear her hair down for the Royal Wedding.

While it's unknown whether Kate Middleton will accessorize with a tiara or flowers when she weds Prince William, this much is certain: The brunette bride-to-be’s hair will “100 percent be down and flowy” on her big day, according to her mane man Richard Ward.

Middleton’s hairdresser confirmed the news to fellow celebrity stylist Sinead Kelly, according to the Daily Mail, telling her, “Every bride’s hair on their wedding day should reflect their look throughout the year. Kate’s such a natural girl, so no stuffy updos for her.”

James Pryce, who works at the Richard Ward salon and metrospa in Chelsea, will be one of six hairstylists on hand at the Goring hotel April 29 to help prep Middleton and her bridal party for their walk into Westminster Abbey.

Pryce, who styled Middleton for her Mario Testino–shot engagement portraits, will also tend to the future Queen of England’s tresses for her wedding, while Ward will have her mom, Carole, and sister, Pippa, looking like royalty.

You can bet that Middleton will spark a trend with her wedding ’do: Sales of shiny hair products rose 27 percent following the release of the official engagement photos.

Now, as to which designer Middleton will wear at her nuptials? You'll have to wait and see ...

In the meantime, this celebrity bride also said “I don't” to an updo.
