Frequently Asked Questions

Will wedding curls hair down work for thin or fine hair?

Absolutely! Use volumizing products at the roots and tease gently underneath for added body. Curls naturally create the illusion of thickness and fullness.

How do I keep my curls from falling flat by the reception?

Start with completely cooled curls, use a strong-hold but flexible hairspray, and avoid over-touching. A quick refresh spray midway through keeps bounce alive.

Can I wear a veil with curls hair down?

Yes! Attach your veil at the crown or just above the curls so it sits comfortably without flattening your style. Fingertip and cathedral veils work beautifully.

Is this style appropriate for outdoor or windy weddings?

Curls worn down handle wind better than you'd think—they move gracefully rather than looking messy. A light hairspray and strategic pinning on the sides adds extra security.
