HOW TO DO A COMPETITION/BALLET BUN:
Until we can make another one – here is the best video we could find. 3 small additions.
- In step 1 – secure with at least 2 rubber bands
- In step 3 – use a stretchy thick rubber band and wrap it around the bun builder at least 2 times! This will make your bun WAY more secure.
- Final STEP! – Use a hairnet over the entire bun (same color as your child’s hair) and secure with bobby pins.

** Competition makeup can be applied in a number of different ways. Honestly, what works best for you really depends on your child. If you are nervous or unsure, please consult a make-up professional (Sephora, Ulta, Independent Consultant, etc) or a veteran parent. Jeanne can also help answer questions!

Please encourage kids ages 12+ to start doing their own competition make-up. Start with a few steps until they become comfortable and go from there. Since there are so many different methods for applying makeup, we think it’s beneficial to watch a few different videos to get ideas for what might work best for you. Keep in mind that we are using a simplified color pallet of just 3 eye colors and doing a lot of blending. You can use more colors if that’s easier for you as long as the end result is similar to the pictures in our make-up document. Please read our Make-up shopping list so that you get the correct colors for the POD! THEN – our best advice is to practice- practice- practice on a low-stress NON-competition day and give yourself plenty of time. Be patient with the little ones!
