New Year, New Hair.

Okay, you already know the deal, girl. 2022, a chance to start fresh, change some things up, get rid of the things that are holding you back, make new goals and find new ways. New Year, New You. We are all about a good new year refresh. BUT, this 2022 we are going to suggest you add a new item to your self growth list. We challenge you to a New Year, New Hair moment.

No, we don’t mean just a new haircut, highlights for you brunettes out there or growing out your gray finally (though we totally support all of those decisions as well). We are talking a more holistic approach to hair love. Embracing and loving your hair for who she is (and whatever help we may give her). Really rethinking your arsenal and haircare routine, not being afraid to try that new style at the office AND being fully confident in your skin and hair for who you are. THAT is the New Year, New Hair moment we are talking about.

As stylists, we have all struggled with our hair from time to time. Not really knowing what to do with it, feeling like we need a change or just a new product?… anything to make it better. Honestly, that is why we love our jobs so much. Having these experiences make it so much easier and more rewarding to help guide YOU through your hair journey. This year, we are encouraging all of you to really fully embrace the journey and make it your year to have all of the hair answers hiding up your sleeve for whatever the times may throw at you! Here is our outline to New Year, New Hair - use it as your guide as you embark on this glorious journey with us! (Don’t worry, you will never be alone!)

  1. Check yourself out.

    Seriously, go look in the mirror. Tell yourself how beautiful you are and take a few notes on your favorite features of that glorious mane.

  2. Check your medicine cabinet out.

    Or whatever you stash your beauty product in. Toss all of those outdated products. Seriously, don’t use them. Now make a note of what you are missing. Here is a list of what we consider hair arsenal must haves :

    1. Shampoo & Conditioner

    2. A Nourishing Mask

    3. A Leave in Conditioner or Heat Protectant

    4. A Styling Product that offers grip, volume or frizz control

    5. A Finishing Spray

    6. A Dry Shampoo

  3. Make yourself a hair appointment.

    Be it a trim, a big change of a cut, a conditioning treatment or some fresh color, get fresh! We can tell you first hand, there is nothing better than having fresh and beautiful hair. Don’t forget, you can always ask us to guide you with your hair changes during your consultation, and our stylists are always happy to help you with your at home hair care as well! We are here to make it easy for you!

  4. Find an at home routine that works and stick with it.

    This might take a while to perfect, but that is what this journey is for. Rotate that mask into your weekly wash to keep your hair nourished and happy. Practice your blowout skills for glossy, bouncy salon-worthy hair all week. Order yourself that nice new curling iron for beautiful waves on girls night. Whatever it is, try and try again until you get it right. We promise you won’t regret learning these tricks!

  5. FINALLY, Repeat, repeat, repeat.

    Seriously, go through this check list a few times a year to ensure that you are taking care of your gorgeous hair properly ALL YEAR for all the years to come. The art of good hair takes a little bit of practice and maintenance but we swear it is worth it and soon will be second nature to you.
