One Hairy Question: Up or Down?
by Erik GuntherApr 12, 2007
For many high-school age girls, the most important decision isn't whether or not to add more glitter to their MySpace page. It's all about up or down. Should their prom 'do be piled high or let down and luscious? For years, searches have shown the "prom updo" to be the more popular choice as high school girls opted to make their tresses into a mountain of locks.
This year the updo still outshines the down 'n' dirty look in Search by a margin of 2 to 1. However, searches on "down prom hairstyles" are up 189% over the last week and are moussing their way up the charts. Those unsure of which way to wear their hair have sent searches on "prom hair styles" up 64% over the past week. We've also seen gel-induced spikes on "2007 prom hairstyle pictures" (+31%), "prom hairdos" (+31%), and "prom hair" (+81%).
So what else have teen girls been obsessing over when it comes to their prom 'do? We waded through the haze of Aquanet to pull out these hot prom hair searches...
