Choose a prom hairstyle that complements your hair type and personality.
Wearing stylish hair to the prom is a requirement for the modern teenage girl. While African-American hair is fragile and sensitive to breakage, the varying textures of black hair present opportunities for prom hairstyles that feature soft waves and tight curls. For this prom season, teens don't have to sacrifice style or sparkle if they choose chic or classic hairstyles.
Long and Loose Waves
Work a styling cream into wet and relaxed hair to add moisture and prevent frizz. Blow-dry hair on a medium heat setting using a dryer with a comb attachment. Using medium sized hot rollers or a curling iron, curl two-inch sections of hair. Rake your fingers through the hair to release spiral curls, allowing a few pieces to fall around the hairline. Add a touch of hair spray to hold.
Curly Ringlets
Wear wild and tousled curls to complement a flowing long dress. After shampooing and conditioning hair, apply a lightweight leave-in gel. Apply the gel to the tips of the ends first; then, starting at the roots, rake an additional dollop of gel throughout the remaining strands of hair. Blow-dry hair using a diffuser on a low heat setting. To finish the style, run your fingers through your dry strands to separate curls. Pin a sparkling brooch into your hair to add a jeweled accessory to the style.
Chic Ponytails
If you have long hair that is relaxed, wear a chic and sleek ponytail. Apply a heat-activated hair cream to wet hair. Rake the product through your hair to coat the strands evenly. Dry your hair on a medium heat setting using a blow dryer and a round brush. Place a dollop of styling cream on your hands and apply it product to your dry strands. Use your fingers to pull your hair into a ponytail and secure with a covered elastic band. Smooth flyaways with a few dots of styling cream applied to your fingers. Accent the ponytail with a jeweled headband for the prom.
