Homburg Brim "Smile"

[StetsonHomburg]

Hi,

I have seen many pictures of "homburger's" wearing their hats and as I look at them I seen a smile like curl in them and my St. Regis's curl is so slight that it looks almost straigt, How or Should I make it more up turned?

Works more naturally on the older, softer Homburgs. The St Regis are stiffer and flatter in their original flanging. With steam you can drop it a bit by pulling the front of the brim down and bringing the sides up but it will resist a full grin.
