1. Loose fishtail braids with long curly locks
When it comes to prom hair looks, braids are a surefire go-to trend. Melding a loose, pretty fishtail braid into red-carpet curls makes for a beautiful marriage of styles, just made for a high school ball.
2. A soft chignon bun with natural, curly lengths
Your natural hair type can guide you in choosing a prom hair idea that will stay put all evening. A sleek and classic chignon will never go out of style and just oozes effortless sophistication. For dishevelled elegance, go for a half-up ‘do, adding texture and embellishment to your lengths with curls and waves.
3. Half-up, half-down twisted pony duo
Create a fusion prom hairdo to celebrate multi-tone hair with a duo of twisted ponytails. “The beauty of this half-up and half-down ‘do is that it’s suitable for any face shape or length of hair,” explained Nicole.
4. A duo of relaxed chignon buns with soft waves
A sweet half-up, half-down do with twin buns is chic and feminine, but most of all, has that swish-ability we all crave when taking selfies on prom night.
5. Hollywood waves with sparkly embellishments
A beautiful, wave-filled blow dry is a Hollywood style that’s sure to make you stand out on prom night. Then, as Nicole told us: “A beautiful way to enhance this prom hairstyle further is to add glitzy embellishments, so this red-carpet look will dazzle under the disco lights.”
6. Classic crown braids
Giving off true goddess vibes, crown braids are a beaut prom hair idea that’ll have all eyes on you. “With a little bit of creative braiding, your gorgeous prom locks will take centre stage,” explained Nicole.
7. The fishtail braid updo
The fishtail braid is an intricate and versatile updo that’s made for prom night. Cascading down between your shoulders, this occasion-worthy mane adds the illusion of volume, and will continue to look lovely while you dance the night away.
8. Deep side-partings on short tresses
If you thought a short haircut or even a boycut wasn’t right for prom night, think again! Nicole told us, “The trending prom hairstyles for short hair will have a deep side parting, undone waves and fashion grips stealing the show.”
9. A power pony with waterfall curls
“The trending Ariana Grande pony is a statement look that will last all day and night!” said Nicole. “It’s very versatile; you can go sleek and straight, choose textured curls with a romantic braid, or soften your power pony with a Hollywood wave and face-framing details.”
10. Cool ash-blonde waves with pearls
The cool hue of ash-blonde will shine bright on the night of the prom, especially when coupled with a rich, dark outfit. Take this ethereal look even further, with side-swept curls and delicately placed pearls.
11. The Dutch braided power pony
The Dutch braid plus the power pony equals an ultra prom ‘do! Carrying the Dutch braids around your head then centring them into delicate ponytails creates an effect unlike any other.
12. Rapunzel-length waves with pearls
If you’ve got long blonde lengths, embrace your fairy-tale princess with defined rapunzel waves. For a cute finishing touch, Nicole explained, “We’re seeing a lot of pearly finishes being added to this look at the moment. This creative, bedazzled trend lets these prom locks ‘glow it up’ to the max.”
