Messy Hair! HELP!!

My daughter ( a tomboy) has hair like Justin Bieber but it never stays in place!

She has a big breakdance show coming up and I need some sort of product for it so it stays in place so she can see!!!!!!

I've tried extra firm hairspray but thats useless don't know what else to try and she definatley won't have it cut.

What else can I try?

Thanks!

    Baseball cap?

    It's pretty hard to make a suggestion without seeing the child's hair but I would have thought that mousse/clips/hat would be the way forward.

    Have a look in Boots etc and try to find a putty or wax with some hold to it, Loreal ones are good, OH used to use the when he had enough hair;)

    You begin to understand why those knitted caps and baseball are so popular in street style!

    How about a really big cloth alice band, like the one the little boy with the wild hairstyle in Diversity wears?

    depends how she wants it, but everyone's hair gets messy eventually, then you comb it!

    When I had short hair, I used This stuff and it was amazing - nothing would budge my hair and it wasn't greasy at all. Fully recommend it :)
