Additionally, an arsenal including a ring-light, athleisure, and a foam roller, can’t hurt!” However, in this article, I have compiled a list of my own tips, must-haves, and hacks to make the B.F.A lifestyle just a bit easier. They may seem ridiculous, and maybe even a bit odd, but I promise, they will help!
