about

Hello! I am studying esthetics at an Aveda Institute after spending years in retail. I am proof that nothing turns out how you think it will, and that's a good thing. When you think you've got it figured out, you don't. Life would be boring otherwise, right?
Makeup, skincare, and psychology are my passions and I'm also happy to give advice on relationships, particularly for teenagers (so many things I wish I could have told myself a decade ago!) I'm happy to help fellow abuse survivors as well.
I'm a diehard SF Giants fan and also enjoy watching the Sharks and Niners. Addicted to music, especially The Gaslight Anthem. Oh, and my name is Krista. :)

I already have my prom dress. It's an aqua blue color and is 1 shoulder. Its length runs all the way down to the floor.

I'm trying to look for good hairstyles that would match with a 1 shoulder dress. I'm not a big fan of an entire updo. I would really like to show the length of my hair and not hide it. So I was thinking about curling it and then pulling half of it up? But my mom said that's too casual for prom. What do you think? I was also thinking about a side swept French braid or fishtail braid. Would that hairstyle fit with a 1 shoulder dress?

I think a curled side ponytail would look really cute with a one-shoulder dress. Here are some examples of what i mean:

(Rating: 4) I had that hairstyle for last year's prom haha. and also my hair is not that long. Its a few inches below shoulders. not quite to my arm pits though. Whenever I curl my hair, it shrinks to about my shoulders. so it wouldn't really look good in a ponytail and curled haha. but thanks for the idea!! :)
