Long Prom Hairstyles


Long prom hairstyles have at large a magical look to take on…
How to do it: Blow-dry hair then, starting halfway down the head, curly hair using a large-barrel curling iron. To get a big, strong spiral in front, similar to Amanda's, use a round brush to twirl together the front pieces. Add extra sheen with a shine serum. Prom Hairstyles around the globe are meant to be the most valued one…

medium Hairstyles How to do it: This style works best for girls with extra-long hair. Blow out hair with a voluminousness spray or mousse, says celebrity stylist Eugene Toye of the Rita Hazan salon in New York. Then, tease hair with a fine-tooth comb working in two-inch sections throughout the head. Secure hair in a low ponytail, and pull out strands around the face to loosely curl. Braid hair starting from the nape of neck, and flip the long plait over the shoulder.
Soft Waves
Gentle waves keep Hilary Duff's half-up sweep looking touchably soft and sweet.
How to do it: Holding a curling iron vertically, curl just the bottom few inches of hair. "At the top, gently tease the crown area for a bit of lift—but think volume, not 1960s bouffant," says celebrity stylist Carrie Butterworth of the Patrick Melville Salon in New York City. Then, secure a small section of hair half up in the back with pins or an elastic that matches the shade of hair.
Dainty Braids
A few tiny, face-framing braids are perfect, natural accessories to Blake Lively's long locks.
How to do it: First, coax hair into soft, loose waves by blowing dry with mousse and a medium-barrel thermal round brush. Then, braid three or four small plaits and pin them under waves with bobby pins. They'll be secure, yet move seamlessly with the rest of the hair, says celebrity stylist Paul Labrecque of the Paul Labrecque Salon in New York.
The Gussied-Up Pony
Zhang Ziyi's spiraling curls and chic side part turn a standard ponytail into glossy, prom-worthy 'do.
How to do it: This style is a cinch to create, according to Toye. Make a side part by pushing bangs to one side, or just smoothing a few long layers over one side of the forehead. Work a small amount of shine serum through strands, then curl hair. Secure in a ponytail at the nape of neck. Finish with shine spray for extra shimmer.
Super-Straight, Ultra-Chic
"Dakota Fanning's long, straight, center-parted hair is reminiscent of popular 1970s looks," says Labrecque.
How to do it: Keep the style sleek and modern by flat-ironing hair and setting with a lightweight hair spray. Separate strands with fingers for a piece-y effect.
Curls, Defined
Jessica Lucas wears her bouncy curls in a simple center-part.
How to do it: Try this curl-perfecting technique from Nicholas Penna Jr., head stylist and owner of Salon Capri in Newton, Massachusetts: To add texture, take a lock of hair and curl it with a curling iron. Take another lock of hair and curl it with the first. Release, spray with a firm-hold hairspray, then separate locks gently with fingers.
