[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been enjoying this series so far.

The organization and women work very hard at their 7pm practices. Most are like tall gymnasts not tiny dancers. Lots of hair and makeup. I must have missed that class somewhere along the line…. [/quote]

My SIL went to hs in Dallas and she said hair and makeup is really important for girls and women. [/quote]

Is everyone’s skin so bad in that heat that they have to wear so much makeup every day? [/quote]

It’s part of the culture. [b]Not just in Texas [/b]but within the DCC organization.
They are told not to come to practice looking rough. They want them to be “performance ready” all the time. Part of their image is that the women represent the DCC “brand” ALL the time. 
If they aren’t on board with that, they need not try out because it’s just not the right fit for them [/quote]

The whole state goes out in full hair and makeup every day? Yikes. [/quote]

DP.  Pretty much. My Mother was not a Pageant Queen type by any means (I mean that as a compliment) but she never went out without her hair and makeup done. I do say that I generally feel very frumpy when I go back to Dallas and have to resist the urge to go to North Park and buy a new wardrobe. [/quote]

I lived in Dallas for a few years and 100% can back this up. We lived next door to HP but not in it, so almost as peak Dallas as you can get. I fought it for a while dressed and acted as my normal east coast self before I realized I had to play along to be taken seriously: cute outfits and hair done even for a drugstore or takeout run, mascara for the gym, etc. Going to North Park was like prepping for a wedding- I would be treated poorly unless I did my hair and makeup and put on a super cute outfit.

I’ve since moved away and am relieved to be back in t-shirts and Patagonia shorts for errands. And I love watching the Dallas cowboys show because it reminds me that my time down there wasn’t just a weird fever dream.[/quote]
