4 New Year's Hair Resolutions That Are Never Too Late to Make

There’s nothing like ringing in a new year to give your hair a fresh start. For those of us who are obsessed with our hair, it’s the perfect time to revamp our hair care and styling routines. No more washing color-treated hair with just any old shampoo or using hot tools without applying a heat protectant first. This year, we’re focusing on taking better care of our hair and you should, too. Below, we’re sharing the best hair resolutions you can easily make this year. Begin your hair resolutions today!

If you have color-treated hair, it’s important to use a shampoo and conditioner that have color-preserving ingredients, or you’ll run the risk of stripping your hair color and watching your precious investment go right down the drain. Try Clean Beauty Color Protect Shampoo and Conditioner with antioxidant-rich pomegranate extract, known to help prevent color fade from environmental exposure. 

Curling irons and flat irons are great for creating a variety of hairstyles, but overusing them can damage hair. Always use a heat protectant like Paul Mitchell® Bond Rx Leave-In Treatment before heat styling. It’s infused with Bond Rx Technology to help repair and reinforce hair and provides heat protection up to 450°F* to help prevent further damage

*As compared to untreated hair, product was tested by an independent third-party laboratory.

Every so often, give your styling tools a break and embrace your hair in its natural glory. No matter what texture your natural hair is, the best way to show it some love is to enhance it with products that encourage air-drying like Tea Tree Hemp Multitasking Spray. This do-it-all spray nourishes, detangles and boosts shine while managing frizz and adding soft style memory.

Shampooing your hair too often can dry out your scalp causing flakes, strip hair of its natural oils causing dullness or cause hair color to fade. The solution? Depending on your hair type, wash every other day to every two days, and on your no-wash days, use a dry shampoo like Paul Mitchell® Dry Wash Dry Shampoo. Apply this ultra-fine, colorless spray to roots and brush through hair to absorb excess oil, instantly leaving hair looking and feeling refreshed with a clean scent.
