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!

I felt pretty bad ass when I found out I landed a pretty sweet new job last week!
training for a half marathon and ran the dreaded ball mill hill, 11% incline and RAN IT! head down, do it , do it, do it, did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BAM
Today was the first day of my summer internship (at my top choice company) and it went really great!!
when i chased my crazy toddler on the beach at 20 weeks pregnant…
Def. after a hard workout when every inch of hair is covered in sweat – I earned that bad hair!
I felt like a BA when I got my final grades back and I had a 4.0!
In honor of national bad ass hair day- I decided to not straighten my hair for the first time in months. I have naturally very curly hair (that I hated for years), and I finally just decided to embrace it.. That’s a huge accomplishment in my book.
I felt like a badass during my long run in the rain over the weekend!
I recently colored my hair blue and purple. Loving it.
I just finished my 5th year of teaching elementary music…feeling pretty BA today!
I’m currently writing a dissertation for my MSc and feel pretty awesome to be able to say that!
Clean and pressing during BodyPump!
Funny enough, my BA moment totally relates to hair. I’ve worn my hair down to my lower back for at least the last ten years. About a week ago, on a whim, I decided to chop it off to shoulder length. It sounds inconsequential, but it was a scary moment! Luckily, I’m loving my new locks and am pretty proud of myself for taking the plunge!
Oooh, I love OGX products! I used to use their Cherry Blossom shampoo and conditioner for years, and recently I’ve tried the coconut version and loved that as well. I felt like a bad ass today when I got a TON of stuff done in preparation for an upcoming garage sale–throwing out things, moving heavy boxes, etc.
I facilitated a great focus group and work and got tons of Kudos from supervisors!
A 2 and a half minute PR in a half marathon last weekend after 3 weeks off because of an injury!
I felt like a badass when I completed my first 24 Fit Boot Camp this week. It was 4 weeks of intense fitness classes and nutrition classes.
I am less than 2 weeks away from graduating from grad school. I guess it’s not actually a day…but I still feel bad ass.
When I finished my sub 4 hr marathon in October!
Pretty much after any CrossFit workout or Oly lifting session – I love that feeling of accomplishment after a tough workout!
When I got a 100 on my AP European History final! Yay!
I ran a marathon in October at 42 years old! I never in my wildest dreams thought I could do that.
I felt like a badass powering through a tough squats track this morning at BODYPUMP!
i changed the rear blinker light on my jeep parked out front of a pepboys. the service guys couldn’t believe it.
Bad ass hair day = going to the gym after staying up for 24 hrs studying for finals 🙂
I ran my fastest 5 miles to date last week! I felt totally badass.
At my daughter’s wedding 🙂
I felt like a badass when I pred in a half marathon race in 2012!
Finishing the Disney Glass Slipper Challenge a few months ago! 10k on Saturday, followed by the Half Marathon on Sunday. I even PR’ed by 7 minutes on my 13.1 time! I didn’t think I’d have it in me after running the 6 miles the day before, but I did! Wahoo! My sparkle headband helped keep it all in place. 🙂
10 min plank = bad ass!
Pretty much every day I do! HA!
This week, I walked into the weight room and set a new PR for my deadlifts! I’m a petite girl and I work out at THE Golds Gym in Venice at the Beach, CA so the dudes are HUGE, and even they were impressed! I felt like a rockstar as they all high-fived me at the end of my set.
Totally felt like one when I completed my first ever half marathon!
Spending the long weekend braving the crowds and rides at Universal with my boys!
I recently was selected to be in a fashion spread for Cosmo! As a short lady in a smaller city, this is so exciting, unexpected and I cannot wait to see the August issue with my own face in it! Badass!
Keeping up with my husband this past weekend on a backpacking hiking trip!
I felt pretty good while battleing a head cold
This weekend I still kept up with my workouts
Including a 10 mile run.
My most recent BA moment was successfully arguing for an additional position in my department, when others were being cut and we had been told for over a year we couldn’t expand!
I felt like a badass earlier today when I dragged myself to the gym and ran 4 miles even though I SERIOUSLY didn’t feel like it. Of course, I felt much better afterwards!
I feel like a badass after a spin class!
I felt like a BA when I made myself get to the gym this morning despite four hours of sleep!
I feel super bad-ass when one week ago from Monday I ran the Grand Canyon! I did a double-crossing (or as they call it R2R2R) for a total of 45 miles and 12,000 feet of ascent and descent in 12 hours!! It was epic and amazing and I’m in awe of my bad-ass self for the accomplishment and the time! 🙂 Still riding the endorphin high a week later!
I ran a marathon two weeks ago!
this is seriously my FAVORITE brand. I only use this on my long, super curly and unruly hair. I felt bad ass today when my son turned one – I made it!! oops, WE made it! haha
I put on a pair of pants this morning for work that were once way too tight and they were baggy! Hell yeah! #sweatingforthewedding
I felt seriously BA last week when a guy in the weight room told me I was making him look bad haha 🙂
I feel like a bad ass when I stand up for myself in a meeting when I know I am right and my boss takes notice!
On March 31st I gave birth to my second child without an epidural. This will be my most bad ass moment ever!
I made it through a really rough workout today that others 10 years younger had trouble with!
I felt like a BA when I walked my 9 month puppy around this huge dog park we have near our house and she didn’t jump into a single puddle! She listened every time I told her to stop. It was the first time she has listened that well with so many distractions!
