Good afternoon, lovely friends!
Have you heard about National Bad Ass Hair Day? Well, it’s today! And it’s pretty awesome. Read on for more information and a fun giveaway opportunity, too!
National Bad Ass Hair Day is all about celebrating your natural beauty, your look and style and your hair in a way that makes you feel amazing. It’s OGX Beauty’s lighthearted way of saying that there’s no such thing as a bad hair day. It’s a day where bad hair days are transformed into bad ass hair days.
National Bad Ass Hair Day aims to encourage women to embrace their hair for its uniqueness and beauty, even on days when you might want to hide your mane underneath a baseball hat. For the past few weeks, women have been spreading the word about National Bad Ass Hair Day via social media by uploading pictures of themselves and adding the hashtag #badasshairday when they feel most bad ass.
The pictures flooding in aren’t of women leaving the salon. They’re not images of women right before a fancy event or a wedding. They’re real pictures from real moments that occur in every day life. An image of a ponytail right after an awesome workout. Tangled locks on the beach. A mom who just hair her hair styled by her adorable daughter.
To celebrate National Bad Ass Hair Day, OBX Beauty is encouraging women everywhere to participate and share photos from real moments that capture them when they’re having fun and feeling most like a bad ass.
To get in on the fun, you can upload a photo to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and add the #badasshairday hashtag. By doing this, you’ll be entered to win tons of fun prizes from OGX Beauty!
I’m also joining in and spreading the word and would love to offer one of you guys a prize pack of hair care goodies, too!

we had friends arrive quite early for a planned get-together and i was just getting off the t-mill…the hair was drenched in sweat and a frizzy pony-tailed mess….and the guy in the couple told me later that it was the hottest i’d ever looked. it was not a way of hitting on me, just a compliment for the guard-down, as-is style

Total win!

I felt like a badass when I was with a group of friends brain storming cute ideas for an anniversary present for on of their boyfriends and they were thinking of things that could be designed around “lettuce be together” and you “make my heart beet” I some how was the only one to come up with “I carrot a lot about you” it was an epic moment because I’m not super creative and usually wouldn’t be the one to come up with that. I got home and told my fiance about it and he gave me ten! lol
My bad ass moment was a month ago, we had a leadership conference at work. It was my first big conference as an admin for my executive. Everything went great and in my review she said that it went flawlessly.
