Here are some hairstyles to try at home during the National Prom Graduation Safety Month

Prom can be both exciting and overwhelming. Choosing the perfect prom attire, getting your nails done, landing on the best makeup look to complement your prom aesthetic, and most importantly, selecting the perfect prom hairstyle to last you all night - all these can be incredibly stressful.

National Prom Graduation Safety Month is celebrated every May, at the height of the prom season. High schoolers have opted to do their own prom hairstyles at home, allowing for creativity, control, and pride. Narrowing down your options is the first step, and here are some easy, at-home prom hairstyles.

Easy hairstyles to try at home

1. Straight or curled bobs

This one is for short-haired girls who feel the need to try out some wild and unique hairstyle. A sleek bob is a statement that not everyone can pull off, so embrace it. It is suggested that straightening or curling your bob and adding hair accessories like clips - or maybe some jewels - could help change it up.

2. Fishtail

Big braids or fishtail hairstyles are wonderful for keeping your hair out of your face during the day and out of your way at night. You can curl the front sections of your hair to add dimension.

3. Beach waves

If you have long hair and don't want to waste time pinning it back with bobby pins, opting for casual beach waves is always chic. To create this look, use a clamp curling iron or a wand iron.

4. Sleek bun/ ponytail

Slicked-back hairstyles are stylish and ageless, and they have a stranglehold on Generation Z. To keep stray hairs in place with a tight top-knot or ponytail, all you need is some hair gel and hairspray. If you go the ponytail option, you can curl the hair in your ponytail or do a tight braid for added wow factor.

5. Half-up, half-down

Can't decide whether to wear your hair up or down? Don't worry, just do both. A half-up, half-down hairstyle allows you to have the best of both worlds. Simply divide your hair in half and tie it in a slicked-back or teased-up ponytail (or braid), leaving the remainder of your hair straight or curled.
