Absolutely! Adding gentle waves and using volumizing products at the roots creates beautiful fullness. Teasing the crown slightly before styling adds dimension that photographs gorgeously.
The secret is proper prep with texturizing spray and setting your curls completely before brushing. A light touch-up with dry shampoo midway through the day keeps volume refreshed.
Yes! Position the veil beneath your crown and secure it with hidden pins. This placement keeps hair smooth on top while letting your waves flow beautifully beneath.
Definitely—when styled with polished waves and elegant accessories, hair down looks refined and sophisticated. It's a modern classic that works beautifully for any wedding formality level.
