Why Wavy Long Hair Works for Weddings
Wavy hair adds romance, texture, and natural movement without looking stiff. Perfect for:
- Romantic, garden, beach, or destination weddings
- Brides who want softness and touchable volume
- Pairing with veils, pearls, ribbons, or fresh flowers
- Humidity-proof styles for outdoor ceremonies
Current trends favor intentional softness, glossy finishes, root lift for volume, and subtle undone texture.
