    How Do You Wear Your Hair??

    Do you ponytail, or braid or anything different for practice? What hairstyle stays the best when flipping? I usually bun it, though I often have to redo it.

    Hair and practice...

    What do you (or your dd) do about your hair for practice? Pigtails, bun, ponytail? Do you keep your hair long or short and does gymnastics affect that decision? My long hair is always getting in my face and stuck in my grips and a bun doesn't stay, it falls out:( any suggestions?

    Hair Tips?

    My 8YO has wavy, not extra thick hair. Regardless of my endless attempts, her hair is, well, a mess when I pick her up from PracMy 8YO has wavy, not extra thick hair. Regardless of my endless attempts, her hair is, well, a mess when I pick her up from Practice. It’s not a big deal of course...

    Xcel meets - hair

    So, I might join the Xcel team at my gym. I know that at meets, the girls on the regular team have to wear their hair in a bun to meets. Do the Xcel girls have to do that too? Because if so, I don't know what I will do, since my mom is hopeless at doing hair, and I can't do a bun in my own hair...

    A hair question- HELP!!!

    My little one is what I would describe as a "pretty tomboy" (though she has disallowed the term "tomboy" and wants me to call her a "sports princess"). The metal image that the term 'tomboy" evokes describes her daily activity pretty well. Running, jumping, flipping, wrestling, and on and on...

    Short hair and gymnastics

    I'm stoked because my competition season is over and I am getting a free makeover (hair cut, color and style) I'm seriously considering chopping a good bit of my hair off. Possibly to the point it won't be able to be pulled back. But not so short like a boy cut. I am wondering if you have...

    I tried out new Gym Hair over the weekend

    It took FOREVER, but because I can't braid to save my life, and DD's hair is SO thin and slides out of everything anyway, I figured I'd give it a go. She slept on it last night and it held perfectly! PS - I curled that pony within an inch of it's life :o and that's about 20 minutes later...

    Quick! Need hair ribbon/bow idea!

    OK, I have a group of parents showing up to make 40 hair ribbons/bows TODAY for a meet this weekend. Don't ask... it was my own idea, and yes, it was totally last minute. But I was hoping that the HC would weigh in with a suggestion of what I should be making, and she hasn't yet, and I have...

    Hair Products

    I've seen a few posts about hair styles in the archived messages, but I'm wondering if some of you might share with me the actual products you use to keep hair in place. My daughters have fine, black, straight, Asian hair and it is beautifully shiny, but does not stay up unless I wet it and...

    Finally got those pesky hair scrunchies made..lol

    Well, the other night I took them into the gym and we wrapped them around the water bottles the girls will get. Let's just say..next time I will think more than twice about saying "how easy" it is to make hair scrunchies. I ended up making 500 of them. It isn't as easy when you make that...

    What hair style works best, for your DD hair type?

    I know there have been many many MANY posts on competition hairstyles. But, most are old, and if I respond to one of them Bog will slap my hands..lol. My DD has long hair, 3/4 down her back. Its SUPER fine. It's hard to get it to stay up in anything. She has let her bangs grow out since last...

    A different way to make those competition curls? Hair friendly/no heat

    Okay, well, we had been talking about how the girls were going to wear their hair, or how they had in the past. Some of the more seasoned moms said something about a sock bun. That, that is what they do, and it makes beautiful curls that last. So I went on youtube to see what my wandering eye...

    Hairpins allowed in hair at meets?

    Is a girl allowed to have hairpins in her hair when competing (or even practicing for that matter)? I have searched for information on this question in previous threads, but I can't quite find the answer that I need. I believe that gymnasts MAY NOT use hairpins, bobby pins in their hair...

    Bob/ shoulder length hair styles?

    My daughter has hair that's barely longer than a bob - not quite down to her shoulders yet. She just started on a team and her hair is out of control, even just in practice. Does anyone have any advice for a relatively new gymnastics mom for hair styles? Even something simple for practicing...
