Physical Appearance Must Follow Handbook
Each handbook has very explicit details on physical appearance. The Ben-Gals’ handbook says, “Stay away from frosted lipsticks and eye shadows. Management will determine your proper color analysis…Glamour is a priority!” While the Buffalo Jills’ handbook says of that the cheerleaders’ nails “must be maintained with a French manicure or natural polish…A full curled or slightly bent, free-flowing style is required. Short hair must be worn full and fabulous!” While the Ravens’ cheerleaders “must have a warm skin color tone for every gameday.” However, they only have a limited number of tanning vouchers for senior cheerleaders, meaning most have to pay for tanning and teeth whitening themselves.
