This video went from "Make sure to plan your outfit ahead! Have enough bobby pins in your purse!" To "Be prepared for the existential crisis that'll hit you by the end of the night!"
I remember my high school prom. Class of 2012 - pretty recent, but whatever. I literally had no friends whatsoever and I still went. l didn't have a date. I didn't have anyone to talk to when I got there. I didn't dance. I didn't take any pictures. Hell, one of the only interactions I had was using the photo booth with this guy I knew from elementary school. And y'know why I went? Simply because I knew it was probably the only time I would/will ever get to be "fancy" for an event. I liked it.
That's gonna be me next month. I don't have any friends at school. I was planning to take my sister but she was over the age requirement. I'm still gonna go because I don't want to miss out on this opportunity. It probably will suck for a loner like me but I'll try to make the best of it.
Honestly, the most important thing to remember is that you really don't have to go to prom if you don't want to. Or if you're deathly sick. And if someone tries to tell you that you absolutely have to go, then just know that they're wrong. If it doesn't make you happy, don't do it!
W!ld Thing Not. True. I'm homeschooled and I go to this thing called co-op. They have proms. Just don't make it #homeschoolproblems. Cause a lot of homeschoolers get to go to prom.
there are homeschool proms, but its far away from where i live, so i would never be able to go to it :( but imma be starting school this year so woot woot prom
You know what would be awesome? If someone asks you out, but you barely know them - because they kept their crush hidden - a series of lunch dates and getting to know each other - it releaves the pressure on the big night.
If you plan on losing weight, NEVER buy a dress before you start losing the weight. Same thing for wedding dresses. It doesn't usually go to well if you do.
If money allow, do your hair twice, check few salons, check their albums, they usually take pictures of special event hairstyles they actually can do, make appointment and see if you like it! Yes it will cost you twice but you know for sure your hair will not be ruined on a day of event!
My school is having their prom at this fancy hotel, no teachers allowed and I'm pretty excited! Although I was planning on going with an old friend until he told me he was dating my best friend..... he still wanted to go with me but I basically forced him to go with his girlfriend (who apparently didn't care if he went with me) I think I made the right decision.....? He's kinda mad at me now and I've known him since I was 4 years old.
If you decide to wear a dress with a wide, full skirt, you can never go wrong by putting a petticoat or two under it. It will give your skirt body, and it will keep the chilly night air from bothering you too much. Also, dress to your body shape and wear colors that compliment your skin and personality.
well your hairstyle depends on your dress if your dress is long is suggest loose curls if its short iron your hair with two little curled strands if you need any more help I'm here
I think I broke all these rules, strapless dress with updo, didn't bring flats, ditched my date before he could ditch me, only have three photos from the night, and the best thing I remember about the whole night is mum massaging my scalp after I took my hair down, these are all really good tips though and I wish I'd followed more of them
Tuxedos are a lot more expensive and you cant get them on sale. My tip is just spend some extra money on a really nice suit that you can dress up or down.
Shower the day before then braid your hair and sleep with it then right before you get ready take it out and slightly brush it so it looks nice but be prepared because if you do not use hairspray your curls will come out
if i'm wearing a garment fully gold/silver/bronze i like to add a bit of each together. say 3 bracelets of each color. i use this in everyday wear. looks fun!
I'm wearing sandles for my prom. I don't wear heels cause it's bad for your feet and I'm afraid of heights. (Heels make you unnaturally taller and I'm already a tall person.)
Man I hope I get to have a prom my school was all like "let's have the kids decided if they want a prom or do a charity " and I'm not against charity or anything but there is no way I want to miss prom, I swear sometimes my school just pushes there beliefs to much on us ;-;
I am super excited for prom and homecoming, but don't know what to do for homecoming or if it is like prom or what, you should totally do a video about homecoming or cool nail, hair, or dress ideas for events like that! Also, you are amazing and such a life saver! Thx!!
I doubt prom is really this great. It's probably wayyyy too hyped up, apart from the 'last time seeing people nostalgia' part, which few people talk about.
Am I the only one that started tearing up just at the word "nostalgia" 😭? I am a junior but I'm more than likely going to do online school for my senior year and won't be going to prom next year regardless as to what happens because my long term boyfriend will already be graduated so my junior year kinda feels like my senior year and the nostalgia has been hitting me hard. Especially since all of my friends were upperclassmen when I was a freshman so now most of my friends are graduated and I'm by myself at school so I rlly do look back on the old days alot. I am still friends w the ones that I kept rlly close after they graduated but it's just not the same. It'll never be the same again. Ya know, our parents used to tell us to stop growing up so fast and told us that we would regret wishing to grow up faster. The liberation of growing up is one thing, but once those early years of your life are over, things change and it's never the same again.
im having prom at my school ... my boyfriend is in the 12th grade , im in the 11th ... we cannot pick partners from the 12th grade ... i dont want to go to the prom now :( my mum wants me too tho' what should i do ?
Go with your friends ❤️ you don't always need a date for prom Wait who did he go with when he was in the 11th grade? If you explain to him you COULD go with a friend (that is a boy) buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut you're just friends, nothing more
Gosh,now when I see this,I donno what to think. When I see all of these steps,it seems to complicated,but I can't wait to get rid of my stupid classmates.I just fell I will screw something up,I still don't knkw what,but I can feel it,even if I have at least 2 years before prom.Should I even go?
My dress doesn't have a neckline like any of those, it's a nice dress, but the neckline is more like that of a tank top. What would look good with that?
I'm planning on wearing my hair up, but I can't wear earnings because I don't have them pierced and I'm not willing to get them pierced just for grad, there's a limit. No one touches MY ears! Weirdo.
Let me say, This is an awesome video. I have prom soon and I've done all of these steps, except jewelry. I'm a special type of person, a person that is allergic to metal. All metals, regardless the type. What should I do?
Hmm... opt for candy jewelry 😂 jk, but there are other materials jewelry can be made out of like beads. Not the big ugly ones, but small, cute sparkly ones made from plastic that looks really expensive. Craft stores sell TONS in a huge variety of colors and shapes. Maybe you can make it yourself. That'll be fun. But if you can't find the right beads then you might want to skip jewelry altogether. I'm sure you'll look beautiful either way :)
my parents don't want me to go, this is on the 15th July, have no dress/makeup plans. I don't get along with everyone there because we're a small school and have all known eachother for twelve years.
I have a mechanical leg. Even though we don't have proms in our country, but I go to lots of parties. Which shoes might look good on me since it cannot have any way of separating the toe and not all shoes match every occasion. For me no high heels are allowed. So wonder what will look nice on me? Please reply
Reagan Homer those types of shoes are actually difficult to find in India since everyone is crazy for heels. It's next to impossible to find any flats let alone flats without toe separation. There the problem arises. And if any of my leg shows, I am a subject to make fun of. No one in India respects people with developmental disabilities. They are hated and looked down upon. So I really don't want my leg to show.
I am a guy watching this cause I have nothing better to do
Love it!

If you plan on losing weight, NEVER buy a dress before you start losing the weight. Same thing for wedding dresses. It doesn't usually go to well if you do.
True
bring batteries, keys maybe wires. you will thank me when you have your phone charging when your portable charger runs out of battery life. :p
and perfume, it will stink in there.
princess luna Idk if you commented bc of pewds but.. "When the morning's gone and you can't go on, BATTERIES."
princess luna pewds
yoehw loiuh you'd be surprised at what you can do with a battery and keys.
“You may not see any of those people again” Well,yay
Our school doesn't have prom
How come??
Yeah, It was my birthday on April 22. I am in 7th grade and I have prom next year, so I'm watching this video now so I know what to do next year.
Noshin R. You are worried about next year prom 😂 and I'm freaking out because my H.S prom is this weekend
_.CrazyBunny._ our country doesn't have prom

Guess who's not going to prom?
Me
Why??
Yuhh, why?
Michaela Kenny I totally get why you wouldn't. Prom is stressful looking.
TheTalko in all honestly, I go to an all girls school and 1. Prom is too expensive 2. I don't think I'm pretty enough to do prom
Panda Girl I just don't see the point
I'm a boy and 12 and I watching this...well I'm going to prom in a dress now.
Nothing wrong with that
You have a future in comedy.
my prom was 2 weeks ago 😕
Yuri Seo how was it😭 *Ik I'm very late*
Yuri Seo how was it
Mine was 5 years ago
le lo was it good?

What makes me mad is that everyone expects girls to wear heals and makeup
many of my friends are wearing suits but im more fem so i like heels and ballgowns and all that
My prom is Friday have any tips I need them RIGHT AWAY I need HAITSTYLES TOO PLZZ RESPOND I NEED HELPPPP
Daylin H

Daylin H what school do you go to cuz my friends sisters prom is Friday and she goes to sterling
Daylin H hope you have fun, and that it goes well.;)
I went to my prom without makeup XD I also wore converse
I think I broke all these rules, strapless dress with updo, didn't bring flats, ditched my date before he could ditch me, only have three photos from the night, and the best thing I remember about the whole night is mum massaging my scalp after I took my hair down, these are all really good tips though and I wish I'd followed more of them
I love how unlike the other Top 10 Channels, you actually reply to comments.
WUT 'N TARNATION!?!? last time I was this early, apple was'nt a ripoff
Hey, i am a girl but... Who else prefers a Tuxedo?
Apparently , they are kinda uncomfortable. That`s what I heard. But yes a tux sounds cool!
Tuxedos are a lot more expensive and you cant get them on sale. My tip is just spend some extra money on a really nice suit that you can dress up or down.
Maurissa Weathers Hell yeah
Maurissa Weathers I don't know why you would even if ur a tomboy prom is a reason to be girly and wear cute dresses
&Crybaby4Life well im Transgender
in 3 years I'll find this video again
These are helpful tips thank you Talko!!!
#This is one of my favorite channels ever!!! #Todays my birthday!!!

I actually find these videos pretty helpful 😂😃
Everyone thinks that all girls wear makeup and wear heels
Ikr, I’m a tomboy, hate dresses and skirts, hate makeup and high heels too.
I'm wearing sandles for my prom. I don't wear heels cause it's bad for your feet and I'm afraid of heights. (Heels make you unnaturally taller and I'm already a tall person.)
Im only 14, but I will be thinking about it
I am only 11 and I am thinking about it :p
WHERE MY FRESHMAN AT!!!
Man I hope I get to have a prom my school was all like "let's have the kids decided if they want a prom or do a charity " and I'm not against charity or anything but there is no way I want to miss prom, I swear sometimes my school just pushes there beliefs to much on us ;-;
you should do a video on the harshest dress codes
when she was talking about shoes, I started to laugh a little because where I live every girl goes shoeless at the dance 😂
thank you soooo much for this tips
I'll probably be the girl who wears combat boots and eyeliner and maybe liptick or a suit OR I COULD GO IN DRAG THAT WOULD BE AWESOME
Thx so much!!😊😄
thanks for the tips I feel much better now because I was stressed what to wear on prom night but now stress gone....😘😃❤👌👍👩
This was actually super helpful, thanks! But how do you wear your hair and jewelry with an off-shoulder prom dress?
the talko published this yesterday did she just edit it?
I loved the Glee videos. Thx
TheTalko more like TheTaco
No Hate. Just Fun
every time i say TheTalko out loud i end up saying TheTaco :3
What would we do without this video? I had no idea you needed to think of something happy to smile...I’ve spent my whole life wondering.
thanks! this video helped me alot!.
I am super excited for prom and homecoming, but don't know what to do for homecoming or if it is like prom or what, you should totally do a video about homecoming or cool nail, hair, or dress ideas for events like that! Also, you are amazing and such a life saver! Thx!!
Tell me!! Even though it is 4 years ago!
i dont get why prom is such a big deal and im a girl
I doubt prom is really this great. It's probably wayyyy too hyped up, apart from the 'last time seeing people nostalgia' part, which few people talk about.

Other than your wedding and prom dress your quinceañera dress is also one of the most important dresses you’ll choose/wear 😂
Quince only exists in Latin cultures though, not every girl experiences it

Do it
my friend did this for winter formal and she looked like a badass
Why I'm I watching this? I already had my prom lol
I love the TheTalko
Tip: Some times you take a bath or shower the night beforehand and wake up and its smooth and all but it doesn't brush well.
I'm homeschooled.I have prom every year from 9th-12th grade with a bunch of other homeschoolers.
My dress doesn't have a neckline like any of those, it's a nice dress, but the neckline is more like that of a tank top. What would look good with that?
I'm planning on wearing my hair up, but I can't wear earnings because I don't have them pierced and I'm not willing to get them pierced just for grad, there's a limit. No one touches MY ears! Weirdo.
