INTER & SENIOR HAIRSTYLE
1. The Essential Products
The following items are needed for a sleek, tidy look:
-
Hairbands (to match the colour of the hair) – thickness depends on how thick the hair is.
-
Clear hairbands – these are great for the ends of plaits, they are easier to hide & do not stick out of the hair style
-
Kirby grips – these come in all lengths, longer hair needs longer grips, shorter hair requires shorter grips – please make sure they match the hair colour as best you can
-
Bun Pins – these are essential for buns & this style (PLEASE DO NOT BUY THE SMALL ONES IF YOUR CHILD HAS LONG/THICK HAIR)
-
Hair brush & tail comb
-
Hairspray & gel – helps to control any baby hair or frizz giving the look a sleek, tidy appearance
-
Bun net – to match the colour of the hair
All these items can be found in Superdrug/Boots//Primark/Superstores/Online & are an essential use in a dancer’s life.
PLEASE STORE IN A NAMED BOX/BAG
They can be used for future exams or shows.
Please bring your hair items with you to the show. We may need to tidy up the style during the show.

If possible please can braid start behind left ear & go to the right.
PLEASE NOTE: If you struggle with a dutch braid you can do a french plait instead. This is where the hair goes underneath rather than over the top.
