QuoteReplyTopic: New Year's hair resolutions 2007 Posted: January 01 2007 at 8:01pm
Now that 2007 is here, with regards to your hair, what do you resolve to continue doing, or start doing, or discontinue doing?
Mine: Keep hair better moisturized. Don't let it get so dry. Apply more oil and water when needed. Also, be more patient sometimes. Continue doing periodic S&D once every couple of months. I might consider continuing to try to learn how to do effective scalp washes, but I'm close to giving up on that one (the last time I tried it was a nightmare).

After reviewing what my goals for 2006 were ... I'm fairly sure I will keep the same and add a few others.
My 2006 resolutions:
*To learn how to S/D correctly.
*Learn new hair styles
*Take my vitamins daily
*Go from waist length to classic (or longer)
*Visit my Hair Guru more often. (Hi Dave!)
I learned a lot about my hair last year. Now, I just want to be
a little more patient and care for my hair like I should.
As fate would have it, my business is all about you.
Diet and exercise, I suppose, are the main things I feel I need to work on. I'm not overweight and don't have a problem maintaining my weight, but I do need to eat healthier foods. I do exercise some... walking 3 miles a day, some sit-ups and push-ups. (I have an exellent motivation - if I don't get at least some exercise, my back hurts.) But I'm not regular enough about it and I'm not in as good of shape as I'd like to be/have been.
This doesn't seem hair-related, but hair and skin reveal what's inside. I know that the better my overall health is, the better my hair will grow. And lately I've been reading up on the types of foods to eat to improve dry hair and skin (both of which I suffer from).
other goals:
~ buy a fresh supply of products before I run out
~ practice braiding more often (i've lost one of my 2 top "models") and learn new styles
No Dave, she didn't cut her hair. I just don't see her that much anymore. I'm actually very proud of her that she's taking much better care of her hair now than she has in the past, and it has grown to just past her waist. She's just stopped hanging around so much and constantly asking me to do her hair. She still gets me to trim for her, but that's about all.
I've been so busy over the last year I've gotten lazy with my styling. I throw it up in a bun way to often!
This year I hope to show it off more with some new braids and let it down a bit. I only wear my hair down once or twice a year. I have to find ways to wear it down more often.
Anyone have pointers for wearing it down, let me know.
By the way.. what's S&D and scalp washes?

I went 7 months without heat last year, and my hair was no better if not worse than it is now where I do the ocassional blowdry/flat iron. So no more of the no heat thing for me.
No real resolutions. I just let it grow and not really worry about it anymore. I'm really liking the new tapered bangs I had cut... it changes my look from high school which was 3 years ago already.
Here are last year's and whether I accomplished them: - Reach a length that "looks tailbone" not IS tailbone... so about almost-classic. (*reached!) - Pick up my green tea habit again - green tea is supposed to be good for hair! (*picked up a red tea habit) - Be happier with my length and not get hair anorexia, be happy with my thickness, especially as my hair gets longer and more difficult to work with. (*debatable) - Learn how to do Leia's Swirly Bun (*invented a new bun)
