If you're one of those teenagers who get overly excited with the thought of attending their first prom, bear in mind that making the night memorable is not possible without your efforts. But don't worry; just remember that preparation is the key to a hassle-free and enjoyable prom night. So here are some common mistakes to avoid as a first-time prom goer.
Choosing style and sacrificing comfort. The prom may be a good avenue to look your best with your gorgeous
prom shoes and awesome dress. However, you should make your comfort a priority when selecting your outfit. For how can you enjoy the big night when you're feeling uncomfortable or awkward with what you're wearing?
Sleeping late the night before the party. Do your best to get well-rested for your prom. Due to excitement, many girls tend to stay late the night before the party to chat with their friends. Don't be like them.
Forcing your date to coordinate with your outfit. It's sweet if you and your date have
coordinating outfits for the prom. But if your date isn't up for the task of matching your dress for some reason (especially when he's on a tight budget and you want his suit to match the color of your dress), then don't force it. You could end up fighting each other, which can ruin your excitement to attend the party.
Booking your hair and makeup specialist too late. Remember that you're not the only person attending the event, especially if it's the prom season. Thus, book your beauty specialist as early as possible so that you can be sure that there's someone who can give you a gorgeous look for the prom.
Experimenting on beauty regimen a few nights before the party. Avoid testing skincare products nights before the prom to be sure that you won't have unsightly rashes or acne breakouts on the big night. It's better to stick to the regimen that has been working on you. Should you really want to experiment new
beauty routines, make sure to do it several months before the event to give you time in determining what will work on your face.
