Now all you need is a prom hair style to top it all off.
If you check out magazines that feature formal hair styles, you'll notice that the classic updo seems to be the norm for prom night. Grab the hair, pull it up into a high ponytail, then arrange it in curls or loops decorated with sequins, a tiara, or other sparkling baubles. It's a nice, feminine look.

Soft, cascading curls of hair that billow around the shoulders, a la movie queens from the '40s.
It's a look that hairstyling maven Jesse Briggs of Yellow Strawberry Salons calls "Hollywood glam" and he should know... Briggs has invented a new waving technique called the S Wave Thermal Set that caters to the new, romantic hair fashion.
"My hair is short. Does that mean long romantic prom hair styles are out of the question for me?"

Not at all. These days, especially in the US, parents are shelling out for hair extensions so their daughters can enjoy long locks just in time for the prom.
As long as your hair is at least four to five inches long from the crown (so the bonds can be attached and concealed) you can experience the fun and glamor of long hair for as long as the extensions last – up to six months.
Hair extensions can be styled into beautiful prom hairdos using curling irons, hot rollers, and blow dryers with just a little extra caution around the bonds.
