It's prom season and the most important consideration for girls after the dress is the hair. Should it be worn up or down, straight or curly, with or without accessories? For a special occasion like prom, it's best to trust the experts, and Cuyahoga Falls has a team of them at MC Hair Consultants.

MC Hair Consultants recently expanded with the addition of studio mc at 940 Portage Trail, a studio salon with space for events like corporate meetings and bridal and baby showers. Salon owner Marcy Cona said prom and other special occasions account for 25 percent of her business but this has increased with the opening of studio mc.

Occasions such as prom are a time for women to slow down and present their best self. The team at MC Hair Consultants will work with you to find what best compliments your features and hair color. They are a one-stop destination for beauty. Amy Robinson, Mentor Stylist at MC Hair, is one of about 50 team members and has lots of experience doing hair for brides, bridesmaids, homecoming and prom. If you have an idea what you want it helps to bring a picture (to get started some photos are included in the photo gallery, and there are more at the MC Hair Facebook page), or MC Hair will work with you to figure out what you want and will educate you as far as what's new that season.

Updos are popular for prom, along with looser curly or wavy styles and braids. With an updo, the beauty of the brow is important. For all types of special events hair, accessories such as clips, broaches and flowers add extra dazzle.

For an event style service, MC Hair includes a consultation, placement of hair ornament, and styling. On the day of prom, they ask you to please arrive with freshly washed and dry hair and to wear a button-down top.

Appointments for prom style services are filling up fast, and Marcy Cona recommends you call as soon as possible to make your appointment. Cost for an updo is in the $50-$60 range. To make an appointment, call 330-929-2210 or book online.
