Choosing Short Prom Hairdo

Choosing Short Prom Hairstyle - Summer Fall 2009 Hair Edition

If you are thinking about choosing one of the short prom hairstyles for your special night, be sure you keep this in mind as you shop for your dress. There are several haircuts that bring out the best in a short prom hairstyle and make you look fantastic.



The layer, textured cut is a great example of a cute short prom hairstyle that has plenty of movement, cut just shy of the length of a short bob. This hairstyle is more flexible than shorter cuts making it very popular. It focuses attention on the face and with swept bangs; it brings a sparkle to your prom night.
The problem with the pixie cut as a short prom hairstyle is that the “boy cut,” look is out of sync with formal attire that is traditional on prom night. This is the one night where most girls want to look 100% female. You can make the pixie cut work for you if you want your facial area prominently on display, with a side-swept fringe for added impact.
If you are considering coloring your hair, be sure to choose a shade that will complement your dress as well as your skin tone. Selecting the right short prom hairstyle for your facial shape is important, but to keep it looking great you will need to visit the salon for regular trims. Otherwise, if you let your hair grow more than a half an inch, the haircut will look different and may be not in a positive way.
