Prom Updos Galore

Prom Updos Galore

Updos and chignons are some of the most popular hairstyles worn to formal events and the prom is no exception. These hairstyles provide such an elegant look that it is hard to overlook them. This updo worn by the beautiful Paz Vega shows just how elegant these hairstyles can be. With updos, there are different ways to create them. Some girls prefer complex updos with no fringe and others prefer simple updos with fringes. It is a matter of preference and here Paz goes with a complex updo with a swept fringe for an incredible look. The fringe can really make a difference in how the hairstyle looks as well as lighten up other facial features. Prom goers should definitely consider the updo as a hairstyle option.

The tresses are curled and just allowed to fall down which makes the hairstyle a great option for strapless prom dresses. The hairstyle is very simple to create yet the overall look it creates is tremendous. Different hair accessories can be combined with this look for some different options.

Keep it Close

Keep it Close

Fine hair can look too harsh in a geometric cut and lots of volume is too difficult to get. For a soft, easy style, keep hair close to your head. What helps: A cut that follows your natural head shape by tapering inward at the nape and rounding out at the top.

When you wear your short cut smooth and sleek, add surface shine with a spray-on silicone product or slip in a jeweled clip for instant femininity.

One look that's always sexy is one that's finger waved and you can do this with almost any short cut that is not heavily layered. Gel hair close to your head, then mold in waves or use old-fashioned waving clamps. Hard to do? Ask your stylist to show you!

Think Razor's Edge

Think Razor's Edge

When you want to soften any cut, get the razor treatment. When hair is cut with a razor, each end is tapered, as opposed to being blunt cut.

Super-short hair takes on new mobility and a short bob is softened via fringy ends. This works best for straight hair; very curly hair is less controllable when razor cut.

Pin Curl It!

Pin Curl It!

Lots of uniform layers take on angelic appeal when hair is set in pin curls. For body, create large loops; for end curl, make curls tighter.

Set hair when it's damp, diffuse dry, then finger comb from roots to ends. For a shorter crop, pin curl just the front or the top. If you have a short bob, try a single side pin curl to create a wave.
