If you’re blessed with amazingly gorgeous naturally curly hair, this post is for you. The key to a successful curly wedding hairstyle is embracing and enhancing your natural texture. Curly hair has its own unique beauty, and your wedding day is the perfect time to showcase it.   

Brides with naturally curly hair have the advantage of rich texture and volume. However, choosing the right accessories require some thoughtful consideration to ensure they enhance rather than overpower your curls.

Romantic curly wedding updos 

Naturally curly hair has a natural bounce and volume that can add a touch of romance and elegance to any bridal look. For brides with more defined curls, an updo that highlights the volume and texture of your curls can be stunning. A voluminous bun or curly chignon adds elegance while keeping your hair off your face. Brides with tight coils can opt for styles that showcase their natural volume and texture, such as a crown of defined curls. You can also add braids or twists for added detail and interest.

Loose curls and half up hairstyles

Not all curly hair is the same—curls can range from loose waves to tight coils, and your hairstyle should complement your specific curl pattern. If you have looser waves, consider a romantic, half up half down style that showcases the natural movement of your hair. This look is soft and feminine, perfect for boho or outdoor weddings.

The half up, half down hairstyle is perfect for brides who want to showcase their natural curls while keeping their hair off their face.

Finish this hairstyle with a flower crown for a whimsical, bohemian look. Dainty pearl drop earrings are an elegant and classic way to frame your face and neckline.

How to accessorise naturally curly wedding hair

When it comes to accessorising naturally curly hair:

  • Less is more. A simple hair comb that doesn’t compete with the texture of your hairstyle will feel effortless and pulled together.
  • Choose accessories that accentuate your curls. Scalloped lines on a lace trim, a hair comb with whimsical details or a narrow headband that frames the face.
  • Natural flowers tucked around your bun will add a bohemian and romantic touch to your look.
  • A traditional tulle wedding veil, with or without a lace trim, is a beautiful way to frame your hairstyle from behind without feeling over styled or fussy.
  • The attachment on your accessories are important to ensure they will stay in place.
  • Metal hair combs or a metal hair clip will feel more secure than hair pins. Hair pins can still be used but ensure they are reinforced with some bobby pins to stay in place.

1. Consider compatibility with curl pattern

  • Opt for accessories that are lightweight and not too heavy, as bulky pieces can weigh down your curls and cause them to lose their shape.
  • We recommend accessories with flexible attachments, such as hair pins or combs or headbands, that can easily slide into your curls without damaging your hairstyle or causing discomfort.

2. Enhance rather than hide your curls

  • Choose accessories that work with your natural texture, enhancing your curls rather than hiding them. For example, delicate hair pins or flower hair pins can highlight your curls without overwhelming them.
  • Avoid accessories that flatten or compress your hair – the best accessories for you will showcase the natural volume and bounce of your hair.
