2025 Prom Hair Trends: Because Basic is NOT an Option

Listen up, besties! Prom season is coming in HOT in Deland, FL, and the last thing you want is to be stuck with a hairstyle that screams "meh." This is your moment to shine, twirl, and make your ex question all their life choices. So, let’s talk about the biggest prom hair trends of 2025—because you deserve a look as iconic as your dress.

1. The ‘Clean Girl’ Updo (a.k.a. Sleek & Snatched)

If you’ve ever scrolled through TikTok (which, duh, you have), you know that the "clean girl" aesthetic is still thriving. And this year, prom updos are all about that sleek, polished, not-a-hair-out-of-place vibe. Think Bella Hadid meets red carpet glam.

✨ How to Get the Look:

• Use Schwarzkopf OSiS+ G. Force Extreme Hold Gel to slick back your hair and keep flyaways in check. Get it at The Warehouse Salon in Deland, FL.

• A strong-hold hairspray like Kenra Volume Spray 25 will make sure your updo doesn’t budge (even when you’re busting out your best dance moves). Available at The Warehouse Salon.

• Finish with Moroccanoil Frizz Shield Spray for that glass-like finish—also at The Warehouse Salon.

2. Soft Waves & Loose Curls (a.k.a. Effortless, But Make It Chic)

If you want to look like you just stepped out of a rom-com where the love interest finally realizes you're the one (as they should), soft waves are your best bet. This look is elegant, timeless, and, most importantly, GORGEOUS in pictures.

✨ How to Get the Look:

• Start with KMS Add Volume Volumizing Spray for volume that lasts longer than your math teacher’s lectures. Snag it at The Warehouse Salon in Deland, FL.

• Use a curling wand and set with Kenra Platinum Working Spray 14—because you need hold, but not the crunchy kind. Also available at The Warehouse Salon.

• A drop of Alfaparf Milano Semi Di Lino Smoothing Oil will keep your waves smooth and frizz-free all night. Find it at The Warehouse Salon.

3. The ‘90s Blowout (a.k.a. The Bigger, The Better)

Channel your inner supermodel with the voluminous ‘90s blowout trend. It’s giving Cindy Crawford. It’s giving “I just walked out of a hair commercial.” It’s giving everything you need for prom night.

✨ How to Get the Look:

• Prep with Moroccanoil Perfect Defense Heat Protectant to protect your hair and add shine. Grab it at The Warehouse Salon in Deland, FL.

• Blow dry with a round brush and lock it in with Design.ME Volumizing Mousse for bounce that lasts all night. Also available at The Warehouse Salon.

• Set with Verb Volume Dry Texture Spray for that perfect, fluffy finish—available locally at The Warehouse Salon.

4. Statement Braids (a.k.a. The “I’m Extra” Choice, and We Love That for You)

Why settle for one braid when you can have multiple? This year, we’re seeing dramatic, intricate braids take over prom. Whether you go for a long, sleek fishtail or a crown braid fit for royalty, you WILL turn heads.

✨ How to Get the Look:

• Use Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray before styling to keep your braids sleek and frizz-free. Get it at The Warehouse Salon in Deland, FL.

• Keep everything in place with Kenra Professional Volume Spray 25 (because unraveling halfway through prom? No thanks). Also available at The Warehouse Salon.

• Add some shine with Moroccanoil Intense Smoothing Serum, because glossy braids > dull braids. Find it locally at The Warehouse Salon.

5. The Half-Up, Half-Down Princess Moment

For the indecisive queens who want the best of both worlds, the half-up, half-down look is back and better than ever. Add volume, waves, or even a bow for that full-on fairytale aesthetic.

✨ How to Get the Look:

• Add volume at the crown with Amika Plus Size Volume & Body Mousse so your hair doesn’t fall flat. Pick it up at The Warehouse Salon in Deland, FL.

• Secure with Color Wow Style On Steroids Performance Enhancing Texture & Finishing Hairspray for soft hold that still allows movement—also available at The Warehouse Salon.

• Finish with K18 Molecular Repair Hair Oil to give your hair that Disney-princess glow. Get it locally at The Warehouse Salon.
