Celebrity Prom Hairstyles With Swept Bangs

Try a fashionable side-swept bang updo for your prom.

Looking for a cool, trendy hairstyle for your prom? If you want to be the chicest girl at the ball, take a little inspiration from your favorite celebs and try side-swept bangs. Bangs have been incredibly in style for seasons and are still going strong. A sleek celeb-inspired side-swept bang style will definitely make you stand out at your high school dance.

Easy Pinned-Back Curls

Go for a soft, pretty look and pair your bangs with big curls. If you want to wear curls, bigger, softer ones are the only way to go. Bangs typically look strange with very tight curls, so stay away from tightly coiled locks. Once hair is curled, either opt for a half-up, half-down style to showcase your curls or gently pin all hair back. Either style looks incredibly chic.

Modern French Roll

Who says French rolls can't be modern? Take this '60s style and make it au courant. For this look, either wear bangs swept to the side and loose or, after sweeping bangs, have them pinned back or molded with pomade. Make sure that your French roll is pulled back tightly and has a sleek look. This elegant style looks amazing with a princess-cut dress and also makes for a fun, unexpected contrast to a trendier dress.

Chic Chignon

You can never go wrong with the chignon. This style can be worn a few different ways. Slick it tightly back for a classic look. Add soft curls and pin back a loose bun for something more romantic. Or try switching it up by wearing a big, loose bun at the crown of your head, or pull it to the side for a stylized twist.

Sleek Side Pony

A side ponytail is another great way to showcase curls. Large, flowing curls are perfect for a side pony look. If curls aren't for you, wear a neat, pulled-back straight ponytail for another option. If you want to try something more unexpected, go for an intentionally messy ponytail. If you're going for a bit of glam, secure a pretty, sparkly hair clip for a final touch.
