Dance Performance Hairstyles for Girls

Since everyone seems to be getting ready for their spring/summer dance performances or competitions, I thought I'd post some inspiration for girls hair and dance accessories. These are from Weissman Costumes, which has the cutest outfits for little girls dance performances. 

Girls Dance Hairstyles

I have recently discovered this darling girls dance line - Lexi Luu - that has girly, unique little outfits for jazz, hip hop and lyrical classes and performances.This is a great idea for a dance photo shoot using simple backgrounds and props. Plus cute hairstyles including pull-through sections, high ponytails and long curls. I'm always looking for new ways to style my daughter's hair for dance class and performances, so these are cute ideas!

Halloween Hair for Girls: Part 2

Disneyland's Studio 365 (Store in Downtown Disney in California) does makeovers on little girls hair that has more variety than the Princess Hairstyles at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique (Located inside Disneyland, which mostly does sleek buns with tiaras). The 365 hairstyle menu usually involves cornrows/twists, then add colorful clip in extensions and glitter. These are perfect for my daughter, who wants to be a rockstar/pop star for Halloween. Also works for pirates, princesses, fairies, and any costume you want to style up a little!

This is the new Pirate 'do, with a crown french braid into a bun, along with pink and purple hair extensions:

 Here is the step-by-step on one gal's hairdo:

Below, these colorful bow hairstyles using clip-in extensions (sold and used at Studio 365) could be done for a variety of Princess, Fairy or rockstar Halloween costumes. To see a step-by-step for this little one's Studio Disney 365 hairstyle, click here.

Little Girls Side Ponytails

Side Ponytails have made a big comeback and can be twisted, curled, pulled through and french-braided to create your own unique spin on the old-school girls hairstyle. This is a style that works on toddler girls, tweens, teenagers and even grown women!

Tween Girls Hairstyles

Tweens or pre-teen girls need stylish hairstyles that aren't too little-girly, but can be just a little twist on classic pigtail braids by letting some bangs come down.

Side Pony Flower Girls

Ballerina flower girls sporting tulle tutus in the wedding colors have been hugely popular this summer. These tween-age flower girls are beautiful with side ponytails and matching flowers (not to mention their pink kitten heels!).
