Gabrielle Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) This past summer I went from long hair to a short, choppy cut. I am growing it out, as it was not the perfect choice, but my next performance is in April, and I am wondering on some tips to put up my hair, so I don't stick out! It can go into a very small pony tail, though! Thanks so much! Edited January 27, 2008 by Gabrielle Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 If that were my problem, I'd consult with a professional hairdresser, and see what's available. There are a lot more options these days in hair extensions, half-wigs - hey, even QUARTER-wigs. And there are technologies out there to help. I only know these from conversations with my sister, who has the beautician license. Quote Link to comment

feet Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I am not sure how she does it, but one of my friends that I dance with has super short hair. For performances, she wears a fake bun. I think she gels her hair back and puts the bun over her ponytail. You have to get a nice face bun or else it will look really fake. Quote Link to comment
Gabrielle Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Oh good, I'm not alone! Thanks! That is what I was thinking (the fake bun) Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 But get advice on it from the pros! Many hair appliances aren't made for the forces that ballet dancers exert on them. Quote Link to comment
Gabrielle Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Yes! I wouldn't want to pirouette across with stage and have my bun fly off onto someone's lap! Quote Link to comment
