Cowboys Cheerleader Breaks Signature Hairstyle Rule
24 Jun
Summary
- An Australian rookie was allowed to wear a ponytail, not the signature curls.
- The director encouraged the hairstyle change for performance reasons.
- This reflects a growing flexibility in the cheerleaders' appearance standards.
Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Faith Ward recently distinguished herself by wearing a high ponytail, a notable departure from the squad's long-established signature hairstyle of flowing curls. This deviation from tradition was initiated by longtime DCC director Kelli Finglass, who observed that Ward's hair was hindering her performance during rehearsals.
Finglass suggested the ponytail, playfully remarking that Ward was giving an "Ariana Grande moment." Ward embraced the suggestion, and the look has since become her trademark. This development signals a broader evolution in the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' appearance standards.
While the squad is known for its uniformity, recent seasons have showcased increased flexibility. Other cheerleaders, such as Ava Lahey, Parker, Kelee Norris, and Kayla Hayes, have also been permitted to adopt hairstyles that better suit their individual preferences and hair textures, indicating a move towards celebrating individuality within the organization.
