What is Prom?

Prom is a high school american tradition in which only upperclassmen go to such as juniors/seniors. It’s a school dance where girls will usually wear long dresses while the guys will wear tuxedos. It’s one of the biggest events of the year and mostly everyone attends. The younger classes such as freshmen and sophomores can go to Prom but only if they have been invited by an upper class student.

The First Step  

The first step in getting ready for prom process is getting the dress which can take a while depending on where you go and what kind of dress you want. There are sparkly dresses or plain ones, dress shops will have dresses suited for anybody which is great.When girls shop for dresses they take a while because they want to find the perfect one that will make them look perfect on prom night. The girl process is much harder than the guys because they have to look for the right dress, find someone who will do their hair and makeup, and find the perfect heels while the guys just have to buy the tuxedo. Every senior girl dreams about going to prom since it’s such a big tradition!

Second Step

The second step is getting your heels, depending on whether you want tall or short ones there will be a great variety to choose from. If your dress is too long either you can get it altered or you can find really tall heels so you won’t be dragging it. It’s best to get it altered because you don’t want to get your dress dirty since you want to be able to cherish it years later. 

Final Step

The final step is finding someone who will do your hair and makeup which is the hardest one in the process because some ladies know how to do those things while others do not and finding the right person proves hard. There are so many different ways to style your hair it could be up or down and you can include braids or curls. Makeup is also very versatile since you can do a simple eye look while you can also do a very dramatic eye look complete with glitter and false eyelashes. An optional step is getting your dates tuxedo to match the color of your dress and get a corsage which should also match your dress.
