If you have long hair then you know that finding the perfect hairstyle for prom can be a challenge with so many options. One of the best ways to narrow it down is to determine if you should wear your hair up or down, depending on what would work best for your dress. You should also determine which style works best with the theme. Updo’s are more traditional and formal while down do’s are more relaxed but still completely elegant. Here we have a few long hairstyle ideas for those looking for curly down dos.
Halo Braid and Curls for your Prom
A great way to blend volume, braids and curls is with this look. Plenty of volume around the crown is held in place with a halo braid and the braid will give your hair that extra ‘wow’ factor. Complete the look with long loose curls.

Long Curls with a Hat
This isn’t your traditional prom hairstyle but it is trendy and bold. Pair your dress with a big floppy hat, or a style that fits your dress and curl your long dresses in long relaxed curls.

Try Vintage Finger Curls on Prom Night
If you want your curls to stand out from the rest then opt for a different type. The long 1920’s finger curls are a trendy and gorgeous. You can pair them with a vintage headband to complete the look.

Half Up and Half Down with a Big Bow
Pair your big curls with a big hair accessory. We love hairstyles with a bow what’s even better is when you wear a big bow with a half up half down hairstyle and plenty of volume around the crown.

A Side-Swept Hairstyle with Big Waves
A bold side-swept hairstyle that pushes all of your big bold waves to one side to create a full and textured hairstyle is a perfect prom hairstyle. You could also add a French braid on the side without curls for a finishing touch.
