For prom i have a light green dress that has very intricate beading on the top half...and is a poofy dress. I have long hair and i'm thinking i should probably put my hair all up for prom because i want ppl to be able to see the beading.. but it doesnt have that interesting of a back or anything.. so i'm kinda stuck. I dont particularly like my face in in all updo. so what should i do ? a half updo would probably still cover up the beads.. but thats kinda what i want to do. the lady at the store said to do up because i normally wear my hair down...
the part of the hair that is down can stay on your back, so it wont really cover the beads in the front, and it wont affect a simple back. also the small hair pins can accent the dress-if you get some that are the color called "aurora borealis" they will pick up the color in your dress.
