Possibly first used by Alanis Morissette for her 1995 song “Head over Feet”, although in the original context it seems to refer to a committed rather than a casual relationship.

Yes, Correct answer to B.
Note: Katie Couric (Today Show) popularized the term.

Some say mid-80s basketball players coined the term, first/most notably quoted by Dwayne Schintzius (Center for U Florida w/ the super mullet)
Manute Bol gets credit for mainstreaming "my bad"

I know you metioned "popularized" in your OP and this clarification, but somehow I doubt the phrase bad hair day was "coined" or originated in the 1990s.

It would have to be someone to pre-date 1984...because that was about the time it entered my vocabulary in High School.

We used to say my bad in 1982. Our center on high school bball team when he goofed up a play, "my bad". Errbody made fun of him because it was stupid then.
