Thank you! If you go to the community tab on my channel I have some pics of myself wearing it. Not the best pics and would definitely look better with a Taylor Swift inspired ethereal folklore type dress in a field of wild flowers somewhere but you know. It’s just a selfie on my steps 🤣

This is such a wonderful tutorial! I'm very excited to get started on my headpiece. Would it be possible to attach photos for what the veil actually looks like on the hair? I want to make sure it's the design I'm looking for before I begin.

[@RachelColton]

Sorry for the slow response. Let me see what I can do!

[@RachelColton]

Hello again! I just posted a few photos to my community page on my channel. Let me know if you have trouble finding them. I did add a light filter to brighten them because they were very dark so let me know if it washed out the design too much.
