I used glitter hairspray once when DD was 10. I accidentally sprayed her in the eye. She could barely see and had a horrible vault. The HC yelled at her for what he thought was crying. She still reminds me of this three years later. LOL Bad gym mom. Haven't used it since. I hate the messy buns on the older girls though. I have been through the hair stages. Pineapple hair braids with the little bands. She used to sleep in curlers. Terrible rest, if her tossing and turning in hotel beds is any indicator. This year she plans to just wear a simple braided bun.never seen makeup on girls, but glitter spray seems compulsory
