Helpful Tips for New Dance Moms 🩷 So, a crossbody bag or fanny pack is so helpful so you have what you need on you (saves trips running back and forth to dressing rooms.) Below are other items I also pack: 💅 Mini nail file, because a broken nail can snag a pair of tights so fast!🤪 🪭Clip-On Mini Fan - cooling down dancers and yourself! 🩹Bandaids (flesh-colored so more discreet) 🧡 Tide Pen - for cleaning tiny stains, and then use small amount of cold water to rinse out and then let it dry 🪮 Tiny comb to fix hair on-the-go 🧻 Small travel pack of tissues 🥰 Travel-size perfume spray (for freshening up, because both dancers and moms…well, sweat 🤷‍♀️) 💇‍♀️ Hair Wax Stick - the frizz tamer for wispies, but the wax stick for larger areas of hair to “tame”) 👄 Chapstick for Mom (plus a set of your dancers lipstick colors, because those almost always need to be changed on-the-go) 🍵Small pack of mints 💇🏽‍♀️ Mini Bobby Pins (tagged in LTK), as well as clear elastics All items tagged in LTK link in our bio 🩷 dance dancecompetition momhacks packingtips competitivedance
