Meghan Markle, who was taught from a young age how to care for her hair, has recently debuted a new hair color. Fans reacted to the hair color with comments on social media praising her for her new look.
In a recent Instagram post by High Brow Hippie, Meghan Markle’s hairstylist, the Duchess of Sussex’s stunning new hair color was unveiled. It has captured the attention of fans worldwide. Her hair, described as a “chocolate chestnut brunette,” showcased an exquisite blend of red and golden undertones with a dark overtone.

Markle’s hair has played a significant role throughout her life’s journey, embodying more than just a style statement. Her father, Thomas Markle, has shared touching anecdotes from her childhood, revealing the lengths he went to support her. Rising at dawn, he would spend hours helping Markle straighten her hair, ensuring it looked precisely as she desired before school.
This ritual was a labor of love for her father, who, despite his career as an Emmy award-winning lighting director, embraced the role of an amateur hairdresser following the end of his marriage to Markle’s mother. Markle’s relationship with her hair also intersects with her experiences of racism from an early age.
A particularly poignant memory shared by her father recounts a time when, during a cross-country trip, they were unable to find a salon willing to accommodate them due to racial prejudices. This early exposure to racism would mark the beginning of Markle’s journey toward embracing and defining her identity.
Reflecting on her childhood, Markle has spoken about the complexities of identity and the challenges of fitting into categories. She described that when she was younger, she had curly hair, a freckled face, and pale skin. Her appearance was due to being mixed race, which made it difficult for her to fit in.

Described as a death-defying event, skeleton racing requires individuals to slide at 100 mph down an icy track on a sled not much larger than a torso-sized oven tray.
