The importance of celebrating International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month cannot be overemphasized.
Apart from being a time to acknowledge the women who have made remarkable strides coming together and demanding action throughout history, it is also a time to recognize our own dignity, strength, and accomplishments as well as empower other women to find their voices and be confident.
To honour women’s month this year, we’ve created a checklist with 8 easy tasks for you our BellaStylistas to celebrate yourselves and the special and outstanding ladies in your life.
Your challenge if you choose to accept is to tick off all the items on the list before the end of the month!
Read on to see all the items, as well as, the template you can use to share your progress.
