With spring here, we know that there are a lot of special occasion events coming up like proms and weddings, and we want to help you look incredible for all those exciting events! You take a lot of time to pick out the perfect dress, so it’s important to top it off with an incredible hairstyle, smooth, healthy skin, and fabulous nails to get a complete look that suits your style.
While the possibilities are almost endless, we’ve noticed quite a few extra-pretty hairstyles that look great for proms and weddings. We’ve asked our expert stylists to give us some of their favorite styles to inspire your prom or wedding look!
High, loose buns. High buns are a great choice for the prom. When properly styled, buns hold up really well to activities like dancing, and they also give you a sophisticated, modern look. A high, loose bun is a great choice because it has that romantic messy look while still holding together well – so they also work great for weddings, especially if you add some floral accessories.
Half-up styles. Half-ups give you the best of both worlds: hair that’s off your face to highlight your best features in photos as well as showing off your long, flowing locks. For proms, we’ve seen lots of half-up styles that incorporate bows, ponytails, and waterfall braids. For weddings, one of our favorites is the long, loose French braid with flowers woven in.
Twisted ponytail. A twisted ponytail is a mix of loose braids that meet in the back into a low ponytail, usually put together with accessories that match your dress (or the floral choice of the wedding). Twisted ponytails are a great choice for any event where you’ll be dancing and moving around because they really hold their shape well while looking stylish for a great special occasion look.
Curls. A special occasion is a great time to celebrate you – so it’s also the perfect time to embrace your natural curls! A lot of people with curly hair get stuck in a repetitive styling routine, but there’s really a lot you can do to show off those curly locks. Relaxed updos are a great look that’s easy to put together, or try a side-swept look if you want to show off your length and curls! Your expert ARO stylist can help you try different styles before your special day to get the perfect look for you.
Braids. Braids have really become increasingly popular, especially for special occasion styles. That’s because they give you a style that adds unique textures to complement your look. A twisted braid updo is a great style for the prom or a wedding because they give you that feminine, romantic look in a style that holds up all night long. Try some unique types of braids to give you interesting texture, like a Dutch braid on both sides that twists into an updo, or a fishtail braid that’s swept off to the side and accessorized.
The bob braid and other short hair styles. There are plenty of gorgeous hairstyles that look great for short hair for special occasions like weddings and the prom. If you have a bob or a lob cut, try adding a small braid to one side that pins up underneath. It’ll give you an interesting new texture for a special occasion. Other choices for shorter hair include side-swept looks with accessories matching your outfit, or short hair half-ups with lots of volume and texture. Chic, sophisticated short styles look incredible with prom and wedding dresses.
No matter what style you choose, you’ll want to finish off your look with great nails, smooth healthy skin, and gorgeous lashes!
Nails. It’s not just about great looking nails – having a spa manicure experience before the prom or wedding is a great bonding experience for you and your friends, or for the bridal party! Be sure to book in advance so you’ll reserve your nail treatment appointments a day or two before your special event.
Facials. A day at the spa is great for bonding or for just getting your skin in the best possible condition for those special occasion photos! Our expert estheticians will help you choose the right treatment for your skin’s needs so it’s healthy and soft for your big day.
Waxing. Some special occasion outfits can be revealing, and if you’re planning a spring wedding, you’ll want silky smooth skin for your big day and the honeymoon to follow. Regular waxing is important, so be sure to make your appointments at regular intervals for smooth skin by the time your special event rolls around.
Lashes. Bold, beautiful lashes look incredible in photos. Whether you want to try lash extensions or a lash lift and tint, book your appointment early to be sure you get the look you want for your special day.
