Parents Worst Fears of a 'Bad Haircut' From a Slumber Party are Relieved with New Series of Fun Girl Games Makeover Edition

One of the biggest fears parents of young girls have is the thought of a child going off to a slumber party, only to return with a hair cut gone wrong. Young girls love to perform makeovers on each other, but unfortunately they do not always turn out right and that results in bad haircuts or makeup all over the place. Now, a new series of fun girl games will hopefully help settle parents’ fears.

“I remember being a young girl and loving makeovers”, said Jane Young, creator of Slumber Party Makeover. “There was just something so exciting about getting all that makeup on me and having my hair all done up. I never realized how upset parents could get over it. That was why I created my series of fun girl games.”

Slumber Party Makeover allows the children at the sleepover to upload photos and images of themselves onto the software. Once the photo is uploaded, the children can perform their makeovers. They can add makeup, change hair color, and even cut the hair – all done virtually.

“It was a relief that my child could have the fun and experience of a makeover, but not come home with oddly chopped hair”, said Dani Talloways, a mother of one of the children who beta tested the software. “I think she actually had more fun with the program than if she had performed the makeovers herself, but that is just what I think.”

The software was recently released as a beta program, where over 100 children were able to use it at slumber parties. The 100 children were able to provide some feedback to the manufacturers.

“We got some valuable feedback from the children that tested it”, said Young. “One of the things that the girls said that they loved was the idea that they could do multiple makeovers and not have to worry about getting in trouble. This really was something that made it a lot of fun. Another thing we learned is that girls wanted to have boy options, so they could pretend to make over their brother, best friend, or even grade school crush.”

The release of the fun girl games is schedule for early next year. The manufacturer is planning on hosting a nationwide ‘bad makeover day’ in honor of it. Children and their parents will be encouraged to create the most unique makeover that is considered humorous or ‘bad’, just to honor the day that the software is released.
