Picture this: It's Saturday, May 19, and the world is holding its breath as Meghan Markle glides down the aisle at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. Every detail of her big day has been dissected and debated—from the designer of her gown to the identity of her maid of honor. Now, we've got another piece of the puzzle: the person responsible for her hair. According to fresh reports, the future princess has tapped Miguel Perez, a stylist with serious credentials, to handle her wedding-day 'do.
Miguel Perez: The Stylist Behind the Royal Mane
Miguel Perez, a name that might not be on everyone's lips just yet, is making waves in the world of royal wedding prep. The Mail on Sunday confirmed that Perez is in talks with Meghan about her big-day hairstyle. And let me tell you, this guy isn't just any stylist. He's a former protégé of the legendary Josh Wood, whose Holland Park atelier is known for turning out some of the most polished heads in the biz. What's more, Perez came highly recommended by none other than Amal Clooney, the lawyer extraordinaire who knows a thing or two about looking flawless under pressure.
Here's the kicker: we had no idea Meghan and Amal were even acquainted, let alone sharing stylists. But when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. These are two powerhouse women who are changing the game in their respective fields. It's like a match made in high-powered heaven.

Perez, speaking to the Mail on Sunday, revealed, "Yes, I do Meghan's hair. I also do Amal's, and Meghan is friends with her." He went on to explain, "I do George's hair too—I do the whole family. Amal introduced me to Meghan when she moved to London. I handle her color, her cuts, and her styling." Talk about a trusted pair of hands!
As for the big reveal? Perez isn't spilling all the beans, but he did confirm, "We've talked about it, and we have a plan. I can't say any more, but we know what we're doing." Mystery solved—sort of.
From Kensington to Knightsbridge: Perez's London Roots
Currently based at John Viale's Salon Sloane in London, Perez is conveniently located just a stone's throw from Kensington Palace—a mere 15-minute Range Rover ride away. If you're wondering what it costs to get the royal treatment, a cut and blow-dry at his salon will set you back nearly $250, while event hair comes in at close to $210. Not exactly chump change, but when you're dealing with someone who styles some of the most influential figures in the world, it's worth every penny.
Perez's connections don't stop at Amal Clooney. He's also pals with Markus Anderson, the Soho House executive rumored to have played a role in setting up Meghan and Prince Harry's fateful blind date. Coincidence? I think not. Plus, he once helmed the salon at The Ned, Soho House's City of London outpost, adding another layer to his impressive resume.
According to the Mail, Perez wraps up each styling session with some sage advice for his A-list clientele: "Walk outside. Try to avoid paps. This is your life now. With great hair comes great responsibility." Words to live by, right? I know I'll be taking that last bit to heart the next time I'm deciding between a blowout or a messy bun.
