BALTIMORE’S BEST HON CONTEST – NO ENTRY FEE – WIN PRIZES – READ ALL ABOUT IT HERE
**THIS IS OUR MISSION: **To showcase working class women of the 1950’s and 60’s, the feisty ones, the ones who raised nice kids with good values, with faith in God, themselves, family and country. They held down a job, cleaned the house and always thought they looked gorgeous doin’ it.
THIS IS OUR MOTTO: The higher the hair, the closer to Heaven…and we’re serious, hon!
Only one special lady can be Baltimore’s Best Hon and this is how ya do it:
- Ya gotta have a BIG GIANT HON HEART and have yer own unique HON style. We know that true beauty is on the inside and the outside is just for makeup, jewelry, lotsa color and spandex.
- You can be as young as 15 or just young at heart. By the way, ya don’t hafta be from Baltimore, but ya better not say yer from Pittsburgh, hon.
- We want you to be fascinating and fluent in our beloved Bawlmerese, ’cause we’re gonna test ya!
- Yer gonna be a star in the Mayor’s Christmas Parade & join our Baltimore HonHive in local events.
- Ms. Denise is the founder of Honfest and her mom, Mrs. Judy, was one of our judges. Judge Judy created our very high standards. Ten years of therapy and Ms. Denise is doing just fine now.
Psst: Our judges give extra points for a real “wash & set” updo because it’s full of hope and hairspray.
