I'm going to take this time to brainstorm and right down a few goals for the upcoming year.

1. Try a few new products (Trader Joe's Nourish Spa Shampoo and Conditioner, Shea Moisture Shampoo, Conditioner and Masque)

2. Establish a regular hair regimen.

3. Set staple products. It's ok to try new things here and there but I want to have a list of go to products that work for me!

4. Fill in the thinning spots at my temples.

5. Bring back my hair's shine!

6. The very last thing on my list is length. I obviously want to see my hair grow but the healthiness of my hair is what is most important and I believe growth will come along with that.

Have you set any goals? Please share them!

Winter weather is upon us, well depending on what state you are in. Some of you may have already noticed you hair is not retaining moisture like it does in the warmer months. It's dry and absorbs any product you may apply. Here are some helpful winter tips:

1. Baggying method- Wet or dampen your hair and apply an oil of your choice. Wear a clear plastic cap overnight. Do as often as you would like.

2. Keep your ends tucked away to avoid breakage. With your ends rubbing up against your wool coat and cotton sweaters, it can cause your hair to break off. Example styles include buns, tuck and rolls, or twist your hair and simply pin it up.

3. If possible, keep your hair braided or twisted underneath a fashionable hat or beanie. This will protect your ends and the rest of your hair from the brutal cold air.

4. Weave options such as wigs, sew ins, or braids with extensions.
