Prom Hair For 2013

It is a prom time again and every young lady is asking herself  "How should I do my hair?", "What is the latest style?", "Should I change my color?", or "Perhaps I should cut my hair..."

But, do not despair. I always told my clients: "When you go out, you need to wear your hair that suits you and makes you feel comfortable. If you are going dancing or to some special occasion event, do not make your hair too elaborate. Keep it on the simple side, so your hair won't collapse. If you make it more elaborate make sure you have enough bobby pins holding your style."

So, my advice to all of you ladies is, that if you are putting your hair up, put it up in such way, that it will hold through out the day/evening/night. If you decide to take your "hair-do" down at some point (during the event), make sure your hair looks good after you take all your bobby pins out, too

Below are some styles (some easy, some more elaborate) that I like a lot, and which could work for prom:
