3 Hair and Makeup PG 3 Hair - ALL DANCERS are to have their hair in a classical ballet bun at the crown of the head, NO BANGS. Hair must be pulled up/back TIGHTLY to avoid fly aways. You must use GEL, not just hairspray, to maintain a clean, neat look when creating a nice and neat bun. Using a bristle brush and wetting the hair also aids in pulling back the hair for a sleek look without fly aways. You have also been sent a youtube link with a very basic run through of how to create a classical ballet bun. PLEASE be sure all head pieces are sent with your dancer. Our backstage workers will secure all head pieces before the show so that all dancers look the same. Be sure to pack a small bag of bobby pins and hairspray for your dancer. Make Up - NO NAIL POLISH OTHER THAN CLEAR OR FRENCH MANICURE! While makeup is not required for the younger dancers, PLEASE NOTE that any dancer without makeup on WILL NOT show up on stage. Essentially, you will see their costume, but not their face! We suggest and recommend that ALL dancers wear makeup. A youtube tutorial has been sent to you with suggested makeup colors, tips, and application. Yes, the makeup is done heavy... This is for stage purposes. Use dark browns and neutral eye shadows, black liner, black mascara (fake eyelashes are recommended for ages 7 and up), and RED lipstick. AVOID THE FOLLOWING COLORS OF EYESHADOW: Blue, Purple, Pink, Dark Gray, and Black. Stage lighting is very bright and very harsh, washing out all facial features of all skin tones. Company Dancers: MAKEUP INSTRUCTIONS TO COME. Hair for the 2:00pm show will be the same as instructions above. Hair for 7:00pm show will be same as competition. Make life easier with a Make Up Kits......similar to the kits used by Parker Dance Company members can be ordered for you if you wish!
