Give Your Team The Winning Edge with Cheerleading Hair Bows

Even the simplest braid hair styles can be dressed up with colorful Cheerleading hair bows! The idea behind wearing hair accessories is to keep your hair out of your face during the performance but that does not mean that you have to wear just any old plain rubber band. Stand out from the crowd and show your extra spunk creating novel styles!

Short History Lesson

Don't groan, I promise to keep it short! The history of cheerleading dates back in the United States to the late 1880s. Then as now, crowds were encouraged to cheer and chant for their teams by crowd rousing cheerleader squads. Since then, cheerleading hair bows have fast become part of every cheerleader's outfit.

Hair bows became popular during the Victorian Era. Females of all ages wore them from modest bows for everyday use to fancier ones for special occasions. Now days, they are a necessity for cheerleaders to keep their hair neatly in place and can display team spirit at the same time!

Accessorize!

One of the most common types of cheerleading hair bows is the covered elastic band with a bow attached. On the other hand, you can tie colored ribbons around your ponytail and let them hang down. Generally, the color of the bows is chosen to match your cheerleading outfit, but you may want to mix it up a bit! Hair bows are available in unlimited styles such as:

* Alligator or French clip

* Bow tie hair bows

* Cartwheel hair bows

* Flyer cheerleading hair pieces

* Pigtail victory bows

* Pinwheel bows

* Pom pom hair bows

* Pyramid hair bows

* Stunt bows

* Victory bows

Your Creative Side Cheerleaders know how to work a crowd and you can show that you have what it takes at the tryout! Rally the judges to your side and show your loyalty and pride for the team by picking out school colors. As a sideline, you can wear the hair bows to school anytime just not to practice or games.

Did You Know?

Although, currently cheerleaders are predominantly female, cheerleading began as an all male sport. Former Presidents, George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Franklin D. Roosevelt all strutted their stuff as cheerleaders! Now, we are not saying that the Presidents in their younger days wore cheerleading hair bows but it just goes to show you what trend setters can accomplish!

Cheerleading is said to have begun as a way to rouse the crowds during a losing season with positive chants and cheers. Being that this all got it's beginning in Minnesota it probably was used to warm the crowd up!

Express Yourself

From small sizes up to Texas style, you can purchase customized bows in zebra prints, polka dots, stars and stripes, sequins, rhinestones, and the list goes on! Cheerleaders abound with passion and enthusiasm for their home team! Be refreshing and wear different styles, start a trend that's clearly you or a new twist on and old trend.

Hair bows can be ordered that have words displayed on them like 'spirit' or order custom colorful hair bows displaying your squad's mascot. For a thoughtful surprise to "cheer" on your squad, order hair bows that display each cheerleader's name.

Cheerleading hair bows keep your hairstyles neat looking while practicing or at the big game! For busy cheerleader, scrunchies are both functional and sporty. Keep in mind that scrunchies may become loose during your performance so you may want Power bows, which show your team spirit while they stay in place throughout your energetic routine!

Hair bows are simple to make yourself and can be a fun team project. Another creative idea to express yourself is with a scrunchie that lights up!

We applaud you on making your school and especially the team your commitment! Support your team wearing creative hair bows at the next sporting event. Nothing like a unique hair bow style to help you keep the crowd on their feet and excited.

I'm talking the violin, viola, cello, etc. Not guitar and bass guitar or fancy country fiddle playing, etc. Good examples: Cranberries "Linger", Nancy Sinatra's "You only Live Twice"...
