When we're battered by gales of wind, the first thing that we give up on is our hair. Even if we've had a flawless blowout, we have to resign ourselves to the fact that our locks are in the hands of the gods — and we'll likely have a tangled rat's nest for hair by the time we reach our destination. But not Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Cambridge visited a primary school in London today, and while you can see from these pictures of Kate that it was a pretty windy day, her strands somehow made it through the visit unscathed. The layers perfectly fell back into their rightful places looking as smooth and glossy as ever. Are there different rules for royals when it comes to Mother Nature, or is Kate some kind of shiny-hair sorceress? She makes elegance look easy . . . and it's kind of unfair. Read on for more celebrity hair inspiration.
