Bows
FAQs
What is a cheer bow?
A cheerleading bow is a hair accessory cheerleaders wear to complete their uniform and show team spirit. Often designed in team colors, it adds a coordinated finishing touch to game day or competition looks.
How do you wear a cheer bow?
You can wear a bow with a high ponytail, at the crown with a half-up, half-down style, or near the nape of your neck. Choose the placement that works best with your hairstyle and uniform.
How big should a cheer bow be?
The bigger the better. Cheer bows come in all sizes, but nothing shows cheer spirit better than a bright, beautiful hair bow!
Which cheer bow styles are best for competition, sideline, or practice?
Your cheerleading hair bows can be tailored for every activity, including:
- Competition Bows: Choose bows made with stiff materials and extra embellishments that provide maximum stage presence. Also look for bows with ultra-secure attachment methods, like hair ties or strong clips, to withstand tumbling and flying.
- Sideline Bows: The focus here should be on team spirit and color coordination. Often, multi-layered bows with stiffened ribbons can perfectly match your outfit and withstand hours outdoors without wilting.
- Practice Bows: You might think bows aren’t necessary for practice, but they can add a little more energy to your everyday look while keeping your hair feeling as close as possible to performance days. Choose comfortable, washable bows that stay out of your face.
