Prom night is a special event for a high school girl. It's a time to celebrate accomplishments during the last four years and look fabulous. A stunning prom hairstyle will make you look and feel beautiful. But how do you choose which one is right for you? Whether you want a sleek and sophisticated updo or long and flowy hair, we've gathered five popular prom hairstyles to help you choose the one you'll love.
The half-up, half-down hairstyle is a classic look for any special occasion. If you want a stylish hairstyle that is not too formal, this one may be right for you. You can wear this style with most hair lengths and have it styled straight or curly. The hair that is up can be secured with a decorative hair clip, chignon pin, or bobby pins to dress it up even more.
The braided crown, fishtail braid, French braid, and more are hairstyles that always look pretty and dressy. Our hairstylists can add a braid to an updo, or we can make a twisted crown braid around your head with your hair down. Another style is to have a crown braid and the rest of your hair in a ponytail. We can even create a French braid crown, where the braid starts in the front and then slowly moves onto the back of your hair. With so many braided hairstyle options, this is a fairytale look.
Updos are a timeless and elegant way to style your hair for the prom. They can be dressed up or down, tailored to fit any face shape, and always look polished and put together. Traditional updos are also great if you want to wear statement earrings. If you're looking to add a touch of classic sophistication to your style, three beautiful updos include a loose, messy low bun, a textured high bun, or a braided bun. The updo has enormous versatility in styling but typically works best for longer hair.
With the popularity of hair extensions, you can create any look you'd like. Your prom may bring out the desire to try some longer locks if you have short hair. You can achieve long, pretty waves, a half-up, half-down look, or a full-on high ponytail braid. We recommend choosing hair extensions made from natural materials, like human hair or silk, and be sure the extensions are the right color and length for your hair.
One of the biggest trends now is fashion-colored hair. Almost any color can be achieved, from bright pinks and purples to blues and greens. If you're looking to change your look for prom, fashion-colored hair may be for you. We've got you covered since choosing a color might be challenging for you, considering your skin tone. We can even suggest colors that will blend nicely with your dress color. Maintenance for Fashion-colored hair is key to having it last, but it's a great way to express your individuality if you don't mind the care routine.
