3-6 Months Before Prom
Buy Prom Tickets: Purchase your prom tickets as soon as they become available. Dress Shopping: Book a dress appointment to find the perfect dress. It's important to pick a dress colour that complements your skin tone also. Keep in mind some shops may not have a one-dress-per-school policy to guarantee a unique look.
Dress Alterations: Schedule any necessary alterations well in advance to make sure your dress fits perfectly.
Accessory Shopping: Pick out shoes, jewellery, a bag, and hair accessories that complement your dress.
Book Hair and Makeup Appointments: Secure a spot with a trusted stylist and makeup artist or practise your makeup look yourself if you're doing it yourself.
Transportation: Arrange transportation, whether it’s a limo, party bus, or carpool with friends.
Group Planning: If you’re going with friends, decide on any group activities, such as a pre-prom dinner or post-prom plans.
2-3 Months Before Prom
Beauty Routine: Start a skincare routine if you don’t already have one. Consider treatments like facials to get your skin looking its best.
Pre-Prom Photoshoot: Plan where you’ll take pre-prom photos and check the weather beforehand
Coordinate with Your Date: If you have a date, discuss outfit coordination (like matching ties or corsages) to guarantee a cohesive look.
1 Month Before Prom
Finalise Alterations: Pick up your dress after any final alterations are made.
Nail Appointment: Book a manicure and pedicure appointment for the day before or the day of prom.
1-2 Weeks Before Prom
Skincare and Haircare: Avoid trying any new skincare or hair products that might cause a reaction. Stick to your routine to maintain clear skin and drink plenty of water.

Prepare Your Prom Bag Essentials: Include items like a portable charger, mints, bobby pins, blotting papers, safety pins, a small mirror, and any makeup touch-up essentials.
Lay Out Everything: Lay out your dress, shoes, accessories, and clutch, so you’re not scrambling to find anything last minute.
