Beauty pageant hair style for young children?

Depending on the type of pageant (Glitz vs. Natural) this will determine what is appropriate. In Glitz systems, hairpieces (falls, cascades, wiglets) are permitted, these are NOT permitted in Natural systems. Keeping hair styles simple for the Natural systems is always best. Complicated, teased and heavily sprayed styles are not a good choice for Natural pageants. Nicely curled hair is always appropriate for Natural pageants, preferable that it's pulled off the face, or clipped neatly away from the contestant's face. If you're competing the child in Glitz, you may use the hairpieces for updos, fuller curled looks. Gone are the frizzy, heavily teased (puffy 80's styles). It is now popular to have a multitude of curls on the girls age 9 and under, this includes the updo and the long looks. 10 and up ages look great in either an updo, or a long and full flip. Regardless of whether you're doing Glitz or Natural, it is appropriate to have a hair ornament that compliments the dress or gown.


Why has J. K. Rowling never acknowledged that casting a black actress as Hermione in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was a retcon of the character from the books?

Unless she actually comes out and gives a statement on it, we really don't know. When asked about it, she defended the change by stating on Twitter "brown eyes, frizzy hair and very clever. White skin was never specified. Rowling loves black Hermione". Of course she also has acknowledged on several occasions that sometimes her stories had inconsistencies that she didn't notice until others brought them up. In this case she overlooked the fact that Hermione is repeated stated to have bushy BROWN hair. All of the black actresses playing Hermione in the play have had very much BLACK hair. All the official illustrations of Hermione in the original books certainly do not have her portrayed as black. J. K. Rowling has often mentioned that she saw herself in Hermione when she wrote her - and J. K. is not black. So yes - it is a retcon. When it comes down to it, it doesn't really matter all that much: 1) Hermione is a fictional character so all "facts" about her are made up anyway 2) Bushy hair is actually a common trait among many women of black African ancestry if they let their hair grow longer and the bushiness of Hermione's hair is generally made more prominent mention of than the fact that it was brown. 3) Getting a good actress in the part was far more important than sticking to the book 100%. One would assume that Noma Dumenzweni was chosen based on her strong acting - she already had an Olivier award for her role in Raisin in the Sun. Once she was in the role it made sense to follow up with another black actress when they needed someone to take over her role. 4) Hermione's skin color is not the only inconsistency - in both the play and even in the movies. It is repeated mentioned in the books that Harry has BLACK hair and GREEN eyes and the actor playing him in the play has BROWN hair and BROWN eyes. Using Daniel Radcliff as Harry in the movies is also a retcon when you realize his eyes are not even vaguely green despite it being such a big deal in the books about him having emerald green eyes like his mother - or as put by Ginny "His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad, His hair is as dark as a blackboard. I wish he was mine, he's really divine, The hero who conquered the Dark Lord." - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Harry was also supposed grow up to be rather tall like his dad and Daniel isn't. Perhaps J. K. Rowling hasn't acknowledged that changing Hermione to black is a retcon because she doesn't consider it to be significant. Compared to the other inconsistencies in translating the books to other media like movies and the play, it really is ultimately rather insignificant. It probably sticks out to a lot of people because they got the image in their head of what Hermione looks like based on the books and it clashes with their established "head cannon".

How do you get really frizzy hair?

This sounds ridiculous. I don't even think anybody should want frizzy hair. But, all you really have to do is when your hair is wet when you get out of the shower or whatever, that you touch your hair a lot.. it makes you hair really frizzy the more you touch it. That one of the main reasons that curly haired people have frizzy hair because when they are applying product or just even touching their hair makes it frizzy. Just saying this does not mean that every time you touch your wet hair means that it will go frizzy.
