Hairstyle from which queen rarely departs? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beehive

This clue is a double definition.

'hairstyle' is the first definition.
(beehive is a kind of hairstyle)

'from which queen rarely departs?' is the second definition.
(as in a queen bee)

(Other definitions for beehive that I've seen before include "place of business" , "Enclosure where honey is first made" , "hair style" , "Source of combs" , "Home to a queen" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
