Hair styles for prom are extremely important. A girl wants to feel good about her hair as well as not have to worry about it getting all messed up after she has it done. In the past, the most worn style was the predictable "up-do." Current trends this year point to more relaxed styles. The top hairstyle for 2011 seems to be the half up/ half down style. Other popular trends for this year include:1. Soft, romantic waves with part of the hair pulled back.
2. Small micro braids in the midst of soft tresses.
3. Pulled back into a messy bun with loose curls.
4. The fancy pony tail.
5. The predictable up-do.
While the up-do is still one of the most worn hairstyles for prom and many other formal events, the current trend seems to be leaning toward more casual styles. Any combination of the aforementioned hairstyles will be very fashionable this season. Soft waves with micro braids, buns with messy ringlets, pony tails with side swept bangs, the up-do adorned with a jeweled hair clip are among some of the popular combinations.
