Prince Harry Jokes About Going Bald When Asked About Grooming Routine

4 hours ago 2

Prince Harry quickly summed up his grooming routine as “s--t, shower, shave,” but noted that he tries “not to look at what's happening” when it comes to his thinning hair.

Prince Harry knows his name isn’t Prince Hairy.

The Duke of Sussex recently poked some fun at himself and how he is aging while joking about his alliterative grooming routine.

“S--t, shower, shave—obviously,” Harry said on the July 13 episode of the Joe Marler Will See You Now podcast. “I trim my beard every five, six days just to keep it a little bit tidy.”

Jokingly admitting that there’s “nothing really happening on top” of his head, the 41-year-old added that he tends to keep it simple when it comes to maintaining his signature red hair. As he put it, “I get a haircut, otherwise I try not to look at what's happening.”

But while the royal—dad to kids Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, with wife Meghan Markle—is avoidant to the reality of his thinning hair, there is one clarification that is on the top of his mind. 

“I’m not ginger,” he joked. “People think I'm ginger, but I'm more like sunset, like auburn. Unless you want to call me Ginge. You know, I got bullied a lot at school, called Carrot Top.”

Of course, Harry has proven he doesn’t take himself—or his hair—too seriously in the past. In fact, he referenced his fading locks while speaking to athletes and volunteers of his Invictus Games Foundation in London last week.

“To bring the Games back to the U.K., 13 years after London 2014, feels incredibly special,” he said July 10, per People. “What has struck me walking around the arena today is just how many faces I recognise from those different groups that were part of that original journey back in 2014,” before quipping that “some of us have lost our hair.”

Harry’s brother Prince William has also made light of his own bald hairstyle.

Indeed, during a July 1 visit to a homelessness charity, the Prince of Wales was told about the facility’s air dryers. But when he misheard, he quickly joked, "Some of us don't need hair dryers."
