Homecoming Hair
There are 3 very popular hair styles for Homecoming this year,
the easy chignon updo, the partial updo and the long and curly.
If you don't have time to make it to the beauty salon before your
Homecoming dance, you can easily create any of these 3 simple styles
on your own at home. For best results, you should do a few
practice runs so that you are fully prepared and know exactly how
you will be doing your hair.

Long Curly Hair Style
We will start with the long and curly style. This style has
become very popular over the last year as many women are getting
long curly hair extensions. If you are thinking about getting
hair extensions for your Homecoming, be sure to get them a few weeks
in advance so you don't have any surprises on the big day.
Long, curly hair style examples, left, below are great examples of a homecoming hairstyle. These styles will go with just about any type of dress and have that formal look about them.
If you are creating this style on your own, you will need to
allow some time to create the curls all over, especially if you are
using a curling iron.
Apply a curl enhancer cream or gel to damp hair before blow drying. Use a diffuser attachment on the hair dryer to help eliminate any frizz. Next add all over curls using a medium barrell curling iron. Be sure to let the hair cool completely before positioning the curls.
Finish off the style by spraying with a finishing spray to keep all the curls in place and to add extra shine to the hair.
Partial Updo Hair Style
The second most popular hair style is the partial updo. Notice
how Olivia pulls back some of the hair in the crown area into a high
ponytail.
Spice up your style for Homecoming by adding a
jeweled barrette or pony tail holder. She has combined two
great looks in one--the all over curls with the partial updo hair
style.
See more examples of the updo hair style below.
Both of these partial updo hairstyles feature some height in the crown area. To create height, gently back-comb small sections of hair and smooth over the top with your fingers. Gently pull the hair back. Hair forms are also an option to create additional height. Beyonce has left out some wispy bangs and side fringe to soften the partial updo hairstyle.
Simple Updo Hair Style
 The updo hair style of choice for this Homecoming season is the
simple twisted low chignon. The style is easy to create and
looks even more awesome with side-swept bangs, as Charlize Theron is
wearing.
For the extra smooth look, run a flat iron over all of the hair,
from roots to the ends, before pulling back into a chignon.
For added height in the crown area, back-comb sections of hair and
smooth over the top with your fingers.
