hair help........?

i was just wondering if anyone had any ideas about what i could do with my hair for prom...if it helps im filipino...if you can picture it...my hair is about an inch or two past my shoulders, thick, black, straight and i have bangs that i have to leave down for my own personal reasons...

i appreciate any helpful suggestions regardless of price...i'll look into it either way...mind you that it's a junior prom and i'm a senior so i dont really need all the hairspray, gel or bobby pins in the world....just something different than this straightness...

for those of you actually trying to help me, i apprciate the time you're taking to read this....thanks again for your help
