Latest Hot Prom Hairstyles

Bettie Bangs

Named after 1950s pinup girl Bettie Page (don�t worry if you�ve never heard of her), everyone from Katy Perry and Christina Aguilera to Dita von Teese (these references you know) is into these edgy bangs. To pull them off, create ringlets, pin back the sides, and keep the bangs blunt

Sleek Ponytails

Okay, so it�s not quite a down-do, but a high, super-sleek ponytail is way sexier than a stuffy updo. To really make your pony look prom-worthy, take a small strand of hair and wind it around the elastic; then fasten it just underneath the ponytail (out of sight) with a bobby pin or two.

Loose Waves

Forget full-on tendrils and take a cue from Britney, Taylor Swift, and Lindsay Lohan, who have all been seen sporting these soft, loose locks. The look is flirtier than straight hair, but you don�t have to commit to crazy curls.

Faux Bobs

Carrie Underwood has been spotted showing off this sexy, tousled �do. It�s a perfect way to get a whole new look without a haircut.

Va Va Voom Waves

Want a hairdo that will really turn heads? We love the look of these glossy, voluminous waves. Remember to coat your curls with a bit of nongreasy shine serum so your hair stays bouncy and lustrous all night long (yep, we mean all through the after-party).

Haute Headbands

Headbands are definitely stealing the spotlight this prom season. It doesn�t matter whether your hair is straight or curly; a sparkly style will add some glitz and glamour to your down-do.



80s Crimp

Crimpers can be fun, but fight the urge to use the iron on your whole head: Remember this is prom, not Halloween. Simply style a couple of strands and keep the rest of your loose locks straight for a modern and -- dare we say totally awesome -- take on this retro style.


Half-Up With Height

Having trouble deciding if the down-do is really for you? Don�t stress. A half-updo (one with lots of lift) gives you the best of both worlds: a few loose strands to twirl and a no-fuss hairstyle that looks ultra-elegant.



Extreme Side Parts

Besides being totally sexy, a side-swept down-do is flattering for every face shape. To really spice up your look, try enhancing your eyes with smoky shadow.



Pinned-up Curls

Want a down-do that keeps the hair out of your eyes? Try teasing your bangs and pinning them back with a barrette for a simple and stunning hairstyle.
