Prom Updo Ideas

Finding the perfect hairstyle is an important part of preparing for prom.


There are many different hairstyle options for prom. Updos are particularly popular, and can be made to look elegant, fun or romantic. When considering what kind of updo you would like, take into account your hair length, texture and thickness. If your hair is very thick and straight, a curly look could be difficult to pull off. Conversely, hair that is fine and has a natural wave might be better suited to curls.


Sleek Low Bun


Try an elegant low bun.


Wearing a smooth, shiny bun at the nape of your neck is an elegant and classic look. You can choose from several different methods to wrap the hair into a bun, and add ornaments as you see fit. Flowers, hairpins and pretty combs are all great ways to dress up this hairstyle. This style is great if your dress is sleek and you want to show off your neck and collarbone.


Sleek High Bun


High buns are popular for special occasions.


Another common prom updo involves wrapping a bun at the crown of the head. You can style the bun in many ways, from very relaxed to very tight. Consider allowing a few wisps of the hair to remain free of the bun and curling them into small ringlets. This particular style is elegant, but can also be romantic if the hair is left slightly more loose.


Loose Curls


A curly updo can look romantic and rebellious.


Wearing loosely curled hair in a ponytail or messy bun creates a very romantic look. If you want to feel like a princess on your prom night, this is the hairstyle for you. If you choose a curly updo, you may want to leave at least part of your hair loose. While some girls may choose to leave only a few strands trailing down their back, others might opt for only a partial updo and let a good portion of their hair remain free.


French Twist


Go chic with a French twist.


The French twist is a chic look in which the hair is twisted from the nape of the neck to the crown of the head. The hair that is not twisted against the scalp can be left free or made into a small bun at the top of the head. The French twist is a mature, classy hairstyle that looks great on all sorts of hair. If you leave the hair straight and twist it tightly, you will achieve a sleek and refined appearance. Curly hair that is loosely formed into a French twist can look very romantic.


Controlled Curls


Tame curly hair into a controlled bun.


If you like the look of curls but want a hairstyle that is a little more structured, curly hair can be carefully arranged into a bun that is feminine yet sleek. The defining feature of this hairstyle is that it makes use of the natural shape of curls to create the bun but does not let the curls flow freely. Although almost any type of hair can pull off this updo, it works best on individuals whose hair can hold loose waves or large curls.
