Grooming-  Hair and make up

          Grooming – Hair and Makeup

          Wearing make –up for stage is an essential part of a performance. The reason Dancers wear make –up is that the heavy   

         lighting used for performances washes out all the natural colour in a performers face and they can look very pasty. It is also to 

         enhance facial features that fade from a distance, so we can clearly see their lovely facial expressions.

Baby Ballet/Jazz/Tap and Acro: Make up for this group is foundation, pink blush and beige eyeshadow, mascara (if they will 

let you!) and pink lipstick. Hair will bein further information to come. Please see me if you need any guidance. There will be a 

Stage make-up tutorial on our website through the Parent Portal, but there are many more available online.
