Prom


Question Posted Tuesday April 1 2008, 7:14 pm

I'm an underclassmen and my boyfriend is a senior. He asked me to prom a couple days ago and I've been trying to figure it all out ever since. At my school, underclassmen rarely go so no one can give me any advice. Since it's technically not "my" prom, should I keep it simple and not do anything too fancy??

Another thing, the place they're having prom is kind of small and everyone is telling me it's gonna be extremely hot and everyone is going to sweat. Are there any good deodorants you recommend? What should do about my breath, too? I hate bad breath more than anything and I'm constantly chewing gum but I don't want to hold a pack of gum in my hand the whole time and I also don't want to have to run back to my purse every 5 seconds to chew a new piece. A lot of mints, like altoids, make your breath smell worse in the end!! so what do you think is a good way to keep fresh breath when I'm getting dehydrated and hot?

And also, for those of you who have already been to prom, is there anything that you suggest I bring on the limo? Like anything I might need? Should I bring clothes to change into? Other items??

I went to prom my freshman year and had a blast, i am going again this year and this is my advice:
It's not YOUR prom, true, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't have fun and make it a special night for your date. You shouldn't hold back on your dress. There are going to be girls there who are going to be over the top and some that are just plain ugly. Just choose a dress that you love. As for deodorants i would go with somewithing like secret clinical strength, i love it because it works for anything and keeps you "dry". Bad breath: I brought gum in my clutch. I chewed a piece before he came over and then chewed a piece right after the dinner. Clothes: if you go to an after party just bring a cute comfortable shirt jeans/sweats.

Tips: I would avoid getting a dress with a train at the end simply because it will get ruined on the dance floor. and for your hair, i did an updo and never bothered me one bit, girls who had their hair down were falling, sweaty, and didn't look cute before the night was over

i hoped this helps! have a great time and don't worry it is SO much fun!

for the deodorant use certain dri like everyday for a week before the prom. it will close the pores in your armpits so you won't sweat as much. you can buy it at a drug store (walgreens/eckerds/rite aid/cvs) and its only a couple of dollars.
and for bad breath you can use a tongue scraper before you go because most of your bad breath comes from bacteria in your tongue. so that should help.

i hope this helps =]
