THE Princess of Wales is known for her glossy hair and she often wears it in a bouncy blow dry.
Eagle-eyed royal fans have claimed that the mum-of-three often sweeps it to one side to conceal a secret three-inch scar she has in her hairline.
One royal watcher claimed on the @princess__jo account: “Princess Catherine uses her hair to hide the defect.
“Kate most often appears in public with her hair loose and with the help of shiny curls styled in a certain way, she hides a noticeable scar on her head.
“The three-inch scar was first spotted in 2011 at a private dinner at Clarence House.”
When fans first saw the marking on Kate’s hair, some people mistook it for hair extensions.

They declined to comment on the nature of the operation due to it being a private matter, but senior royal sources said it had been a “very serious operation”, according to the Daily Mail.
John Scurr, a consultant surgeon at the Lister Hospital in London, told the publication that it was unlikely to have been down to a tumour.
He said: “I really doubt it was any serious medical condition and I would say it is as a result of an arteriovenous malformation – a birthmark – being removed.

“It is remarkable, given the measurement, that no-one has noticed before.”
While the operation remains a mystery, recent photos show Kate, 41, styling her hair in a way that conceals the scar when she wears it up.
Her husband Prince William, 41, also has a scar on his head, and refers to it as his “Harry Potter” scar.
The forehead scar is said to be the result of being hit with a golf club when he was 13.
