For the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, they must be on their A-game when it comes to talent and appears once they stroll onto that discipline. Now, after seeing a breakdown of the services they use within the new season of America’s Sweethearts that premiered on Netflix’s 2025 schedule and studying in regards to the potential price ticket on all that, I’ve to say, for a number of causes, my jaw is on the ground.
Whereas watching Season 2 of America’s Sweethearts with my Netflix subscription, I used to be significantly considering all of the work, effort and cash that goes into being a DCC juxtaposed with how little they had been being paid. On the finish of the season, it was revealed that they had been getting a 400% pay enhance, which is superb. Nonetheless, the truth that InStyle reported that it prices over $1900 to prepare like these girls remains to be stunning.
After all, this quantity can fluctuate from individual to individual, as they use completely different services. It doesn’t matter what, although, the quantity remains to be excessive. Nonetheless, fortunately, numerous the products and companies these girls want are lined by the crew.
They use these sources too, as one-year DCC veteran Ava Lahey stated:
Nothing is required, however they do provide all of those superb sources that I believe the entire crew positively takes benefit of. We save some huge cash, so we’re so grateful for that.
A part of this lined value is haircuts, colour and remedy. The crew has been partnered with Tangerine Salon since 2016. So, whereas a reduce might value $84 to $135 and colour remedy costs vary from $121 to $380, they get it at no cost.
Together with that, the crew companions with Palm Seashore Tan. Memberships there value roughly $130 monthly, but it surely’s free for the cheerleaders. Nonetheless, a number of the girls additionally self-tan on high of that, so add that to the private price ticket.
Within the new season of America’s Sweethearts, which is among the newer reveals streaming on the 2025 TV schedule, what the crew gives is defined as nicely. Episode 5 of Season 2 reveals the “sponsor showcase,” and varied manufacturers talked in regards to the companies they supply, together with Tangerine Salon, Kiss, which provides nail and lash kits, and Icon Meals, which gives a $60 weekly meal credit score.
These are only a few examples, too, as Kelli Finglass, the director of the crew, stated within the present:

We acquired a sheer hosiery sponsor, gymnasium memberships, meals, nails, make-up, pores and skin merchandise and pores and skin remedies, and tooth whitening and the dentist, and all the nice issues they get as a part of their compensation package deal once they’re a cheerleader.
In the meantime, the private price ticket continues to go up as you get into glam. Every lady has their very own routine and chosen merchandise. Nonetheless, issues just like the $36 Dibs Magnificence Desert Island Duo and the $10 e.l.f. Energy Grip Primer are widespread among the many crew. Then, add on basis, setting spray, mascara, lip merchandise and extra, and you’ve got a small fortune in your make-up bag.
Now, although, the crew is sponsored by Charlotte Tilbury, which ought to assist offset these prices.
The Dyson Airwarp was additionally cited as a generally used hair software, and people value $599.
And once more, this isn’t even the whole lot.
Total, it’s stunning how a lot time, thought and particularly cash goes into the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders’ look, whether or not it is being paid for by the crew or the person cheerleader. It’s quite a bit to grasp, and I’m completely happy the crew covers numerous these prices. Irrespective of which means you slice it, although, it’s staggering to see the worth tag on what it takes to keep up the look of those iconic cheerleaders.
