When it comes to prom, the first thing most girls think about is the dress followed by their hair, but sometimes the hair comes first. In all reality when you are considering a prom hairstyle it really should flow with your dress, make-up, and even your shoes. Some may think a hairstyle can be anything, but if you have a really flashy looking prom gown then you certainly don’t want to have a really flashy hairstyle or it will take away from your prom dress. So what prom hairstyles are hot for 2009?
Some hot prom hairstyles are the messy prom updo, which was worn by Carrie Underwood. This particular hairstyle is very neat and slick in the front with a very messy looking bun in the back. When you create the bun in the back make sure to leave the bun loose and long pieces hanging down and to the side. This prom hairstyle should only take you 15 minutes to achieve. To get the front and sides sleek use a gel or a texture paste.
The next hot prom hairstyle is called a wispy and messy prom hairstyle, which was worn by Alexis Dziena. This prom hairstyle has a lot of character to it. To get this look you need to part your hair on one side leaving a few sections on the left side hanging down and a section on the right side hanging down. Then take a big curling iron and curl those sections. Once you release the curling iron from the hair separate the curled section making it messy looking. For the back of the hair place it all into a bun leaving a few pieces out.
Another hot prom hairstyle for 2009 is a big messy prom hairstyle, which was worn by Louise Lombard. This sexy hairstyle is great for proms, weddings, or even on a date. This prom style has a touch a class and sexyness all in one. How can you get this prom hairstyle? First gather up all your hair and place it on top of your head. Make sure when you secure the ponytail that the front section is not too tight. Now curl all the pieces in the ponytail with a big barrel curling iron. Once you have all the pieces of hair curled loosen those sections up by piecing them with your fingers. You can take some of the sections of hair and wrap them around your finger to get more of a finger wave look. Use your comb and take a few thin strands of hair from the nape of your neck wrap them around your finger and allow them to hang loose on your neck.
Last hot prom hairstyle for 2009 would be a braided bun with a sleek front, which was worn by Naomi Watts. This easy prom hairstyle can be worn with a simple prom dress or a flashy prom dress. To get this prom look first you need to pull all your hair back into a very tight ponytail. Make sure the front and sides are slick as possible no flyaway hairs hanging out. Then start braiding your hair with either 3 or 4 strands. Make sure the sections of hair are wide enough to make a 3 or 4 strand braid. Do this until the whole ponytail is braided. Grab sections one at a time and place some of the braids on top, middle, and side. Do not worry if the braids don’t look level. The complete look should represent a chignon style almost except with braids all over.
