How to Design Your Prom Hairstyles?


Romantic prom hairstyles:

Curly locks: Romantic and lovely, there is nothing more alluring than soft natural curls. If your natural "do" don't curl, there is always the curling iron, or your ever faithful hot rollers.

Sidelong Glances: Use hot rollers on all your hair to start. Tease the top for lift and then pull it to the side in a low ponytail. Rhinestone barrettes can add the final flare! Finish with a gloss, or glitter spray.

Bouncy Beauty: Hot roll hair in medium size rollers and pull it all back in a beautiful headband.

Fun prom hairstyles:

Electro-punk: Use a rhinestone tiara to secure the front, then section the back and put small ponytails all over. Wrap your hair around the base and leave it tousled and wild! Zap! You're it!

Twisted Tease: It's hard to go wrong with braids! There are millions of types to experiment with: basic braids, single variation, double variation, crown, multiple strands, and many more! The easiest thing to do is pick up some "how-to" books or videos on braids, or try looking up hair braids on the internet. You can also ask your favorite beauty parlor if they know any fashionable twists. They're just beautiful with flowers or ribbons weaved in.

Cute prom hairstyles:

Sweetie Pie: If you like the innocent look, think about bold, bouncy, natural ringlets! Use your fingers to comb through it and lightly spray. If your hair needs a little help curling, try loose pin curls until it dries. Add tiny clips and a sweet smile!

Sleek prom hairstyles:

Sophisticate Chic: Wanna look exotic and mysterious? Try slicking your hair back into a tight ponytail and adding a faux bun, or hairpiece. This is a no fuss "do" that looks super sophisticated, and won't have you primping all night.

Sleek & Stylish: Try the "Sophisticate Chic" with a flare! Part your hair on the side and add a light pomade or anti-frizz solution for the sleek look. Zig-zag your part and add a pretty barrette if you like!

Remember, you can change your length instantly with the use of add- ons, falls, or extensions. A hairpiece is just like an accessory once you get used to it. Ask your local hair stylist for advice. This for a very dramatic change!

Once you have mastered the perfect looking "DO," finish it off with spray on shine or shimmer dust! A little glitter will make any hairstyle look ready for the ball..

After deciding your hairstyle, you need to pick a perfect prom dress.

France, One Of The Best European Destination Wedding Spots

Why: The country is home to one of the most romantic cities in the world -- Paris. And just an hour outside the city is the chateau-rich and rolling Loire Valley, cherished for its fairy-tale castles, historic villages, charming people, wines, and food.
When to go: April through June, and September through early November. While the weather is mild year-round, the rainy season varies by region and runs from mid-November through February; stay away during July and August unless you want to deal with huge crowds.
Guest activities: The City of Light boasts world-renowned boutiques, cozy streetside cafes, grand avenues, jazz clubs, galleries, and museums -- and let's not forget the Eiffel Tower. Since the Loire Valley is so close, you and your guests can also enjoy the country life: take a wine-tasting tour; pay a visit to the Chateau d'Usee, said to be the setting of the French fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty," in the village of Rigny-Usee; and take a taste (or two) of the beloved tarte tatin (upside-down apple tart).

Best spots for weddings:

Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris  Luxury is present here in spades (the event planning staff knows who all the best vendors in the city are, while the concierge is there to help your guests). The hotel's central location (blocks from the Champs-Elysees, within eyesight of the Eiffel Tower) is perfect for a chic old-school city celebration with a tres Francais flair.
Chateau de Marcay, Loire Valley  This fifteenth-century fortress, surrounded by its own vineyard, is perched at the top of a slope overlooking the village. The rooms are done in a French provincial style, many under a network of rough wooden ceiling beams. And the restaurant is renowned for its gourmet cuisine, guaranteeing a sumptuous wedding day feast.
