Help me!! I have really short hair and I have no idea what to do with it for prom. My dress is light blue and my hair is medium brown just below my ears. I don't know if I should color it or leave it alone. I especially don't know how to do my hair one the big night. HELP ME PLEASE!!

Babydoll,
there are some styling options, even for short hair. I've got even shorter hair then you ;-)
I've been to the US recently and I think "seventeen" has a picture of a short haired girl as an example in its prom section. It's a simply side-parted style, tamed with a little gel or wax and some clip in diamonds (hair accessoire).
Since yu don't have the possibility of an updo - why not trying some fancy hair clips. Hairboutique has some nice ones, but I'm sure you find some more in local shops and at your hairdresser.
Glitter hairspray matching the colour of your dress will look good, too.

I'll do some surfing to see if I can find some nice pictures for inspiration - I'll be back.

I'm back.
Here is something similar to what I described - even though her hair is a little longer than yours. But I think you get the idea:

is also nice - maybe a little too casual, but can be styled more sophisticated with hair jewelry etc.

How long is your hair in the back? Is it straight, wavy, thick, thin? Have you considered to consult a pro to maybe consider a new style?

Let me know and I keep my eyes open! When is your prom?
