Makailas before picture. I should note she had just previously cut 10 inches off of her hair for "locks of love", so we were a little nervous as what to do with the shorter hair .
We ended up adding some big ringlets and I thought it ended up so cute. She was worried she had 80's hair, I told her I could give her some hairs hair is she wanted some.
We then headed over to a good friend of mine who does make up and she helped her with that part of the evening. Makaila normally does not wear makeup so she was feeling a little nervous about that.
Her dress was a cute sweater dress with a green tank underneath. She had on a owl necklace and earrings. She had some cute green shoes to match the tank. She wouldn't let me post a picture of the whole makeup and hair she was feeling a little self conscious I think (not use to wearing that much makeup) but I thought she looked gorgeous. She went with two of her girlfriends and had a pretty good time. I think it will be a while before we get her to another dance, but that's okay with mom.

She looks beautiful!
Tell Makaila thanks for letting you share her lovely event with us. She loos so pretty... But of course, I've thought that in others pix you've shared, too... I guess pretty is just pretty, make up or no... ;D
I'm a fuddy-duddy mom, too. And I was the one to always wait up and talk to them when they got home. They KNOW if they are late, I WILL KNOW! ;D
At least they'll look back and realize all the things we did do because we love them! (((HUGS)))

Bravo to your daughter for cutting her hair for a wonderful cause! So unselfish. You must be so proud of her.

Your daughter looks lovely! It’s wonderful that she donated hair to Locks of Love! I donated 13” two years ago, and it’s a wonderful organization. I’m following you now!

She looks gorgeous and we moms have to ruin their fun sometimes, right? It's for their own good. :)
Wonderful that she donated her hair to locks of love also!

WOW! I feel like my comment may get lost in the mix here... and the WOW also applies to Makaila. So grown up and girlie! (Ooo... she'll probably hate that word?!) She does look cute though and dances are super fun. I love the new 'do!
She looked beautiful! The hair turned out great! That's so cool that she donates it to Lock of love, I did that twice, such a good cause!
Thanks for following me, I'm following you back!

I had strict rules like that too when growing up and now I thank my parents for it! I am a better person because of it.
I just found your blog through a Thursday blog hop! Have a great night.
