STUCK UP: 2013 Prom Updos

Alright ladies time is running out! The dress is chosen, the shoes are purchased, and you're still trying to figure out what to do with your hair!

Stay calm, I have researched the latest red carpet inspired updos and sending them your way.

No matter if you're relaxed, natural, or loc'ed, short hair, long hair, curly, or straightened, I have an updo for YOU!

I also have buns which are a popular and an ever evolving hairstyle. I have big buns, little buns, messy buns, and fake ones. They have all gotten the thumbs up from celebrity glam squads across the board.


Updo's are popular with formalwear because they add a classy and svelte style to any formal ensemble. However, what you should remember, is, that when a style is chosen, the hairstyle should compliment YOUR facial features and bone structure. Just because your favorite celebrity has worn or is wearing a popular hairstyle, does not mean that it is the right fit for you.

Fishtail braids are also an ever growing trend for fashion formalwear. They can be worn to either side of the head with the hair pulled back, parted to each side with sporadic loose ends or you may want to add a bang for a more glamorous and sophisticated look; One that is sure to turn heads.
The messy or Greek style pinned looks are popular this year as well. The pinned hair in the back or sides and tousled loose ends are a nice addition to your prom digs.

Low on cash? That's quite alright many of these styles can be achieved at home. There are several tutorials located on YouTube. As a matter of fact, one of the ladies' pictured below, in the leopard print, who happens to be a friend of mine, has a website that will teach you how to achieve the bun that she is wearing at www.kassidymichal.com

Also, for my natural girls looking for affordable updos, Mrs. Octavia Coleman, owner of Ice Creme Beauty Bar, can help you with awesome natural updos. She has received RAVE reviews for her exceptional work with natural hair, myself included. You can find her online as well at www.vagaro.com/ICCB to book an appointment.

Don't let glam pass you by, choose from one of the many featured updos, so that YOU can be the highlight of Prom 2013.
