Hair & Makeup
Our Approach
Our goal is a clean, consistent look that supports dancers on stage.
Stage lighting can wash out facial features. Makeup helps restore those features so expressions are visible and creates a unified look across the stage.
LPD’s standard is a neutral eye, black liner, and a berry lip.
A berry lip is preferred (even though red is Miss Lynn’s personal favourite) because it is universally flattering and complements all costume colours.

A Note on Eyeliner
If you are sensitive to eyeliner, you can wet an angled brush and use eyeshadow to create a soft line instead of pencil or liquid liner.
Hair
Our Approach
LPD’s go-to style is a centre-part low bun.
It is simple, timeless, and works across dance styles, hair lengths, and textures.
Expectations
Long hair: Centre-part low bun
Short hair: Please consult with your teacher for a similar, secure style
If a centre-part low bun is not achievable, please speak with your teacher. We’re happy to help find an appropriate alternative.
