So what to consider…
Be Prepared.
Prepping for your prom hairstyle properly is like eating a good breakfast. It will give your updo or other chosen style the energy to last for hours!
Once you say Yes to the Dress.
Pick a hairstyle for prom that’s perfect for your outfit! Are you wearing a one-shoulder gown? Maybe opt for a side-pony or bun and place it over the bare shoulder.
Stepping out in a strapless? Scoop your hair up or create luscious waves and wear it down. Think opposites! If your dress is sleek, put some fun curly or wavy texture in your hair. If the fabric is textured, opt for a smooth hair style.
Going retro? Go all the way with a ‘‘40s glam waves or ‘20s Gatsby fingerwaves.
Consider the trusty ponytail. There are so many ways to dress up this long hairstyle!
Strike a Pose.
No doubt about it—there will be cameras. Your Mum, your Nan, your friends. Make sure you show up on Social Media looking your best!
For a picture perfect look, the main thing is to banish every trace of frizz and be sleek and perfect! Unless you’re going for big waves and curls of course! Shine is essential too!
Add A Modern Twist.
Make your prom hairstyle your own by giving it an edge. First off, it doesn’t have to be perfect—don’t worry if a few tendrils float free here and there from your prom updo. In fact we might do it on purpose!
If you’re creating a curly prom hairstyle, mix up the size and shape of your curls. If you’re going for waves, start the waves three inches from the roots and leave the ends out. Try not to overdo the accessories—one tiara could be one tiara too many. The idea is to find the prom hairstyle that makes you look and feel great, without looking or feeling like you’re not you!
