Gone are the days when popular prom hairstyles were all about the sleek buns. Nowadays there are a number of different ways girls are wearing their hair to prom, many of which have become very popular. If you are looking to create an exciting and popular hair style for prom this year, consider the following options that work perfect whether you have long or short hair.
The Messy Updo
Instead of making sure every piece of hair is in its place, this updo creates some flair in your style by mixing things up a bit. To create this look, simply pull all of your hair to the back of your head and twist as you pull it up toward the head. Fasten the hair to your head and then using some hair gel, style the ends and bangs into a sassy frenzy.
The Sleek Ponytail
Popular prom hairstyles are not all about your hair being off of your neck anymore. One of the more popular ways to sport a sexy look these days is to simply pull it back into a ponytail. For a dramatic effect, you will want to use a hair straightener on your hair so that it remains uniform. Make sure to use a product like mouse or gel on the hair to prevent frizzes and fly aways.
Half Up Half Down
This is a fun look that many girls are doing nowadays. The idea is to bring the hair up behind the ears for that classic look, while leaving the back of the hair down for a more playful look. Simply fasten the top half of the hair to your head like an updo and style as desired- you can braid it or twist it for an additional flair or even attach small flower or sparkle streamers in it. The bottom half of your hair can be left as is or curled for a more vibrant look.
