• Ballet/Tap Combo - Regardless of ballet or tap dance style, hair will be in a high but slightly to the dancers left, curly ponytail.

• Jazz - Low (base of the skull), straight ponytail with a left part (dancer's left).  Part should be approx. 3" long.

Makeup

• Feel free to wear a base/foundation as needed.

• Blush should be worn to highlight the cheekbones.  

• Use the same color blush for a little eye shadow.  No colored (blues, purples) shadows please.

• Line both lids with a black or dark brown eyeliner

• Apply either fake lashes or mascara to open the eyes and define them. 

• If you dancer has light eyebrows, it's recommended to fill in their brows.  

• Classic, red lips!

*Remember, stage makeup should be applied a bit darker than everyday makeup.  The stage lights will wash a dancer's features out on stage so feel free to be generous in your application. :)
