It is easiest to secure the veil comb if you have a firm bun, a messy updo, or thick hair. However, if you have short hair (i.e pixie hairstyle) or thin hair, you can make use of the elastic bands. Create tiny ponytails on your hair and secure them with the elastic bands. Once you have created a row of these tiny ponytails, you can then nestle the veil comb into them.
