Hair Issues...
We have a handful of girls who are not following our requested guideline for natural color hair. The natural hair color guideline was part of Tigerette info that was signed for and notarized prior to tryouts in January and was repeated here on the blog last April. Tigs and Parents we need your help to correct this issue.
A few girls have hair that has gotten a little too light due to time in the sun this summer...those girls can get a good conditioner or toner and be good to go. We do however have another 2-3 girls who have chosen to ignore the guideline and chemically change their natural hair color to one that is either way too dark or way too white. Sadly we even had changed hair color after we started camp which is also another thing we asked not to happen. Blonds should be blond, reds red, browns brown, and blacks black...that is all we expect.
The bottom line is it is simply not fair to the 28+ girls who are doing exactly what is expected not to address the obvious disregard for the guideline, so please understand that from this point on any girl with hair issues will not perform at events with the group until those issues are corrected. The girl(s) will either follow directions and look like we need the Guard to look or they will be suspended from performance events until they comply as they agreed to do prior to tryouts.
Please take a close look at the root color of your (your daughter's) hair as well as eyebrow color and make sure that the base hair color is one that matches. A good idea of your/her natural color is also taking a look at pics of the girls in 6th and 7th grade before most of them begin playing with color. Highlights and lowlights are not a problem as long as they are small strands that blend with the natural color...normally no more than one shade lighter or darker works very well on everyone.
The Tigerettes will dress and perform in the stands with the band on Friday, August 19th. Hair issues must be corrected prior to that date. We have 32 gorgeous girls and we simply want them to stay that way!!
Guard Practice on Thursday, August 11th...
Guard practice that was scheduled for 5 to 8 p.m. has now been changed to 6 to 8 p.m. This is a time change for the Guard only and DOES NOT apply to band members. Thanks!!
