Pretty Prom Hair

I've found that the type of dress you wear and the way you do your hair varies. Girls on the west coast seem to wear shorter dresses and they wear their hair done or in a messy updo. On the other hand, girls in the south wear longer, more formal dresses and they usually wear their hair up.

Here are some of my favorite formal hair styles that you can do yourself:

1) Wear your hair done - flat iron it so it is sleek and shiny a la Gwyneth





2) Use a 1" curling iron to create soft waves/loose curls a la Lauren Conrad





3) Wear it half up half down (loose curls or straight) a la Fergie





4) Wear it half up half down, but twist the sides or braid them (see below) a la Mandy Moore/Nicole Ritchie/Whitney Port





5) The messy updo (see the main pic)
