Tips:

Use Hair Pins
Use Hair Pins & Bobby Pins
Thick or LONG hair may require larger pins; visit Sally's Hair supply.
Hair pins/bobby pins match hair color
Hair is easier to manage when wet.
Wrap the HAIRNET over the bun and secure that again with bobby pins.
No Scrunchies
No Braids at the top or throughout the head.
No flyaways (side hair around the hairline should be slicked back with spray and gel)
Use Hair clips to keep all bangs our of the dancer's face.

Concert Hair and Video Resources to Practice

A proper dance bun: hair is completely slicked back with gel and hairspray with a part on the LEFT side of the head. The hair is to be in a low ponytail then twist or braid the hair into a tight circle (it should look like a flat donut) until all of the hair is in a neat bun against the head. You may also use a sock or donut sock for a perfect bun. Please look at the pictures we have added above. All hair elastics, bobby pins, hair pins, hair clips, and hairnets should match the dancer's hair color. ALL DANCERS SHOULD LOOK THE SAME AND BE UNIFORMED.
