Harry and Meghan's former personal hairdresser George Northwood has released a new haircare range at Boots.

The hairdresser to the stars was the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's personal hairstylist during their two years together in the UK.

He also has the likes of Alicia Vikander, Julianne Moore and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as clients, and owns a salon in London's Fitzrovia.

Now the high-end hairdresser's products are available in Boots, in a new 20-piece range which launched earlier this week.

The line includes shampoos, conditioners, volume spray, holding spray, moisturising cream, curling tongs, straighteners and a hair dryer.

All items in the range are made from vegan formulations, are free from sulphates and feature packaging which can be recycled.

“The range is called Undone, because this reflects my signature style, but I also wanted to “undo” the maze of hair. Over the years I have tried every hair product on the market," said Northwood.

“I wanted to bring the Undone ethos to everyone across the UK and that’s why we have partnered with Boots to launch – I always wanted the price point to be accessible: the range starts at £12”. 

Northwood worked with Harry and Meghan before they stepped down as senior royals, but  was only able to reveal his professional relationship with the couple after they left for the US.

In a post on Instagram in March last year he said he'd enjoyed "every minute" of working for the couple, and that they had taught him about "diversity, equality and the importance of good mental health".

He added: "Harry, Meghan and Archie, wishing you much love and luck for your next exciting chapter! Can’t wait to see you one day soon - and so happy to now be able to share about our special time together."

The stylist said that his work with the stars had been a "focus group" for his new range.

He wrote on Instagram: "Over the years I’ve been privy to the most authentic, organic focus group: exacting beauty editors as well as celebrities and royalty.

"As such, Undone not only capitalises on my instinct for what women need from a product range but also, what women want for their hair."
