National Blonde Day is sponsored by the Blonde Legal Defense Club whose mission it is "to stop the widespread belief that blondes are dumb and incapable." Now, who would think something horrible like that? The mission continues to say that are committed "to make sure hair color isn't a factor in work or social environments." If that isn't a noble cause, I don't know what is.

Q: Why are dumb blonde jokes so short?
A: So brunettes can remember them.

To celebrate the event, the hair-care experts at Vidal Sassoon salons across North America will be giving free "Flash of Blonde" hair color treatments. Also, in keeping with this year's NBD theme ("Makeover America"), Sephora will be doing makeovers with stila cosmetics' Legally Blonde 2-inspired color palettes, and O.P.I. will offer manicures with their Legally Blonde 2-inspired polishes. People are going to look completely fabulous!

No doubt.

Despite appearances to the contrary, this is completely serious (well, at least he part about the makeovers, anyway. This isn't really serious.). Why National Blonde Day hasn't taken off in Samoa is a complete mystery to me.
