I get ready for dance in three easy steps: One, slick my hair into a bun. Two, get dressed and put on makeup. Three, snacks and sanitizer.
The first step to getting ready for dance is putting my hair into a bun. The first thing you do is brush out your hair so it is tangle free. Then take a fine tooth comb and some water, and slick your hair back into a pony tail. Next twist your pony tail into a bun shape and secure with U pins. Cover your bun with a hair net, and if you want put a scrunchie around the bun!
The second step to getting ready for dance is putting on clothes. This differs from day to day but I will tell you my dress code for ballet. I wear a leotard and tights, ballet shoes with ribbons, and I can choose my earrings. My makeup is pretty simple. I put on lavender scented tallow, brush out my eye brows and fill in the scar that I have on one of them. I apply blush, chap stick, and curl my lashes, then I am done!
The third step to getting ready for dance is packing snacks. I need snacks because I need to stay nourished and energized during dance. I usually eat these snacks in between classes: fruit roll-ups, bison bars, Yes bars, grapes, cheese, cashews, and sometimes cookies. Lastly, I always take my water bottle.
When I get ready for dance I am super excited for the day ahead of me!!
