LAYPO’s Suggestions for a Long Hair Style

We need to do our best to serve the audience in a professional way as a selected performer to represent LAYP. Unless you wear a hair band/hairpin or do hairstyles like the example photos below,

your long hair may cover your instrument or
you may add unnecessary motions to remove your long hair from your shoulders or instrument or
your long hair may distract the musical concentration.
