Need help with Borderlands 2's Bad Hair Day mission? Learn how to collect Bullymong fur for Hammerlock and get your reward.

Alright, so you've stumbled upon the 'Bad Hair Day' mission, huh? It's a pretty straightforward one from Sir Hammerlock, usually picked up in Liar's Berg. He's looking to jazz up his hat with some Bullymong fur, and guess who's gotta get it for him? Yep, you!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Where: Liar's Berg (or Sanctuary later).
  2. 2
    What: You need to collect four pieces of Bullymong fur.
  3. 3
    What to do: Head out and find some Bullymongs. These guys are pretty common, so you don't really need to follow the game's waypoints if you don't want to. Your main goal is to shoot them until their health is pretty low, but don't kill them outright with gunfire. You need to switch to your melee attack and land the finishing blow. If you do it right, they'll drop a piece of fur.
  4. 4
    Why this way: If you kill them with just gunfire, they won't drop the fur you need. The melee finisher is key here!

As you start collecting the fur – you'll see it drop as an item you need to pick up – Claptrap will get on your case. He'll offer you a shotgun if you bring the fur to him instead of Hammerlock. It's totally up to you who you want to turn it in to. Hammerlock will give you a sniper rifle, while Claptrap offers a shotgun. Both give you the same amount of XP and cash, so pick your poison!

Tips
  • Don't waste ammo trying to kill the Bullymongs outright with guns. Just get their health down low enough so your melee attack will finish them off.
  • It doesn't matter which Bullymongs you target, so feel free to hunt them down wherever you find them.
  • Keep an eye out for the fur dropping after the melee kill – it's an item you need to pick up.
  • 362 XP
  • $15
  • Either a Sniper Rifle (from Hammerlock) or a Shotgun (from Claptrap)
