A hair whip adds an extra flirty touch to any sexy choreography and it translates easily to casual dance settings like the club!

If you really wanna slay the dance floor, this move is a must-learn.

P.S. Keep in mind, you don’t need to have a bunch of hair to do the flip motion.  

It’s really more about the attitude. ;)

Watch the move demonstrated here:

How to whip your hair

  1. Stand in front of a mirror with your feet a little more than shoulder width apart.
  2. Drop your chin down toward your chest, hinge at the hips, and drop your whole torso forward quickly so that your hair falls over the front of your body (if it’s long, it should be hanging toward the floor).
  3. To come back up, snap your torso back to it’s original position, and as you do so, bring your chin up off your chest so that your hair whips toward your back.

All done!

This is just a basic hair flip to the front, but keep in mind that there are lots of variations you can try.

For example, you can move your chin in a criss-cross motion before you drop to the floor to add even more movement!
