MADI

Hellurrrrr! Glad you could stop by!

I initially started Hairs Out of Place with my mom in 2017 as a frugal living and travel site, but then she started a food blog, Whole Lotta Yum, and baby blogger Madi grew up. I wanted to still have a place where I could share more of my personal life and experiences from college living to getting your first apartment, plus bringing inspirational content a younger audience can relate to, like you! Warning: we might have a lot in common.

Who is she:

Currently, I am a 20 something full-time blogger, writing posts related to rental decorating, DIY, college life, and celebrations like parties and gifts for millennials and Gen Z girls. Plus I’m assisting with content editing and marketing, and I’m the social media specialist for www.wholelottayum.com.

In my downtime I’m binge-watching and binge-eating, keeping up with the Bach/elorette, creating my own cocktails, taking my doggo on walks, and shopping on Princess Polly (my favorite store I can’t afford).

I grew up in Washington state and have lived there for most of my life. I moved to Santa Barbara, CA to earn a Communications degree. Since college and moving back to WA, I’ve been embracing the PNW life as much as possible, and (we don’t know when but) soon I will move somewhere warm again. You can call me a PNW native with a Cali heart.

My biggest life passions are fashion, beauty, fitness, dance, travel, and being the biggest foodie in town. I am quite the homebody and with the current pandemic, I don’t mind working remotely and staying cozy in my lounge sweats and sweatshirts at all. Also, I love the free rent and unlimited amount of wine and booze (sorry mom). Then there’s fun Madi who loves being around people, any excuse to get dolled up, discovering new food and drink places, supporting local businesses (thrift shopping and coffee), community events and live music, and just being out of the house!!! If COVID wasn’t around I would have been on three vacations by now…HUGE travel girl. If I were to pick one season to live the rest of my life that would be summer; I thrive on time in the sun, near the water and any good sunrise or sunset. And my guilty pleasures of course are any kind of chocolate by my bed, chocolate Oat milk, and my hair growth vitamins (because gummies matter).

So why Hairs Out of Place?

To me, Hairs Out of Place not only describes my wild hair in its own world (you don’t ever see because my straightening iron is always on) but it also just describes LIFE in that it isn’t as perfect as we want it to be all the time and often can be a hot mess! But you know, I’m okay being out of place, because I’m grateful and happy with where my life has gotten me. I am just living to be the best version of myself without comparing my life to others. Life is too short to let the imperfections get in the way, be your wildest, truest self, and embrace it! Something I’m still working on :)

Okay enough about me. Thanks for taking the time to read about my background, who I am, and this blog! With all seriousness, I am here to help others create a fun and trendy lifestyle that makes you feel good and feel good creating for yourself! I feed on knowing what others love and are all about. I love getting to know people and really hoping to find a community essence and connection with my viewers on Hairs Out of Place. So please reach out to me in the comments on articles or on my personal Instagram or feel free to email at Hairsoutofplace@gmail.com for anything! Us boujee girls need to stick together!!

XOXO, Madi
