Prom season is here, and that means you're probably trying to decide on the finishing touches to complete your prom look. With your dress, shoes, and jewellery picked out, it's time to choose the perfect hairstyle to pull everything together. Today, our beautiful friend Josie Sanders shares three easy, DIY prom hairstyles that are sure to suit your personal style.
Enjoy the video below, or scroll down for step-by-step instructions on creating these gorgeous styles.
1. Bohemian and Girly
This hairstyle is perfect for our free-spirited girls who prefer a more effortless look for formal events. To begin, clip in your pre-curled Luxy Hair extensions (Josie uses her 220g Dirty Blonde set), and use a curling wand to blend in your natural hair. Add a fishtail braid on the side, and finish the half-updo with a loose bun. Quick, easy, and oh-so-bohemian.
Perfect Pairing:
We love this looked paired with a flowy dress in a light color and natural sun-kissed makeup.
2. Edgy and Playful
This look is not your traditional prom style, and that's why we love it! Simply pull your hair into a voluminous dutch braid and slick back the sides with hairspray and bobby pins to create a faux-hawk effect. Turn up the volume with a colored or metallic hairspray to complete the rocker-chic vibes this look creates.
Perfect Pairing:
Take this look to the next level with a black or metallic-colored dress and a bold lip + cat eye liner combo.
3. Classic and Feminine
For those girls who have been planning their prom look since freshman year, this classy updo is sure to fulfill your prom hair dreams. To create the look, clip in your Luxy Hair extensions and style your hair in loose waves using a curling wand. Create two small rope braids on either side of your head and secure with bobby pins. Then, take the rest of your hair and flip it inwards to create a sleek bun. Pin in place, and voila! A stunning updo that is sure to impress.
Perfect Pairing:
This updo is perfect for showcasing an intricate back detail on a prom dress. Pair with a floor-length gown with a beaded back embellishment and rosy makeup - a look fit for any prom queen to-be.
