About Us

Happy Badger Headbands are handmade by me, Justine (after expanding on a solid foundation from the original creator, Logan). A portion of every sale helps support patients and families with a cancer diagnosis receiving treatment in Madison, WI.

These headbands are for nurses, teachers, workout enthusiasts, shower haters, and moms (like me) who don't have time to do our hair. Plus, they're made to be super soft and stretchy for comfortable non-slip all-day wear, no matter what your day brings. So put your hair back, and look good doing it.

Happy Badger Headbands quickly became more than headbands. It was started by an oncology nurse who was passionate about not only helping her patients, but her coworkers as well! She had been listening to and loving these people going through one of the hardest walks of life wishing there was more that could be done. Insert Happy Badger Headbands. Since inception, HBH has donated thousands of dollars to help patients pay for necessities like prescription co-pays, groceries, gas. In addition, HBH uses funds to buy other comfort items for the inpatient unit, and to "adopt a family" to fund holiday shopping in December. When HBH began, no one could have never anticipate what the year 2020 would bring. In what was a dark year, the ability to go the extra mile for a complete stranger has been such a light on the unit, and continues to do so. It's made a difference - not just for patients, but for their healthcare providers, too. 

At Happy Badger Headbands we create awesome accessories, but more importantly we "band together" to show up for patients with small gestures that affect them in big ways, and to support families who could use a little extra love. Maybe Mother Theresa herself said it best, "There are no great acts, only small acts done with great love."
