HOW I HEAL MY DRY WINTER HAIR

I know in California (especially San Francisco) it doesn’t get as snowy and cold as other areas of the country but I definitely can feel a difference in my hair when the weather changes.  For 2018 I’ve been trying to streamline my winter hair care routine and get back to the basics.  I’m always doing something with it–curling it, waving it, pulling it tight back into a ponytail–so giving my winter hair some love is high on my priorities for this season and the whole year!

How to Help your Dry Winter Hair

My biggest hair vices? I color it and use heat to curl and wave it.  My colorist Stacy Caitlin Hair is incredible with color and creates the prettiest shades of blonde in my naturally brunette hair.   The process is very gentle on my hair to lift the color, but I’m in need of extra moisture and care between my salon appointments.  As part of my between salon appointments and winter cold care, I’ve been focusing on bringing moisture back in so that my winter hair maintains its shine and softness.

Any given weekend, you can bet a trip to Costco is on my list–ha! It’s my favorite place to stock up on things (Lola’s favorite grain-free dog food, paper towels–you know those glamorous items!) and I recently discovered they carry the big liter size Nexxus shampoo and conditioner sets!  I’ve had Nexxus in my shower rotation for a couple years now (from this Thanksgiving boho-glam hair tutorial  and this summer picnic outfit and hairstyle) and was excited to pick up the new Nexxus Therappe Shampoo and Humectress Conditioner bundle pack.  I particularly love keeping liter size bottles in the shower for the pumps so I can speed through my shower routine.

And speaking of shower routine, I’ve noticed that using the Nexxus Therappe Shampoo and Humectress Conditioner that I’ve been overall using less product and therefore saving more money.  Typically with shampoo I’m filling up my entire palm of my hand with shampoo to get enough cleansing power to wash out oil buildup, dry shampoo and other product.  But I’ve noticed with Nexxus’ great lather I’m using about two pumps and getting my hair super clean and hydrated.

I’ve also changed up how I’m washing my winter hair to focus on cleaning at the roots and hydrating at the ends–instead of all over everything.  I feel like it has been gentler on my hair and less wasteful with product.  I’ll take my two pumps of Nexxus shampoo and focus it on my scalp rather than on my hair (trying my best to give you guys a visual here–haha).  I’ll run my fingers through my hair against my scalp and focus on creating lather at the scalp.  For me thats where I notice oil build up (benefit of oily skin…less winkles!) and there my dry shampoo build up is, and focus on getting that area clean and lathered.  Previously I would ball up all of my hair on top of my head into a big lathered mess–definitely a lot more work to brush out later.  Once I feel like my scalp has been thoroughly cleaned, I’ll rinse out the shampoo and let the lather run down the length of my hair giving it a gentle cleanse as it goes.

For conditioner, I’ll take the same two pumps of Nexxus and work it into my hair from my ears down.  I keep a hair clip in the shower and will tie my hair up and let the conditioner steam into my hair for a good five minutes or so while washing my face, etc.  When it’s time to rinse it out, I let the water do the work and feel my hair transform into cashmere.  I am completely serious when I say I’ve never felt a shampoo and conditioner combo make my hair feel so good in the shower.  So glad I found the liter sizes!

For today’s style, I washed my hair the night before with Nexxus and let it air dry.  This morning I took my curling rod and added a few curls throughout and noticed my ends feeling much more moisturized and sleek than usual.  Now I can make my hair look as good as Stacy does between salon appointments!

    I love Nexxus all the time. I use it all winter. If I don’t, my hair gets all dried out and frizzy, and just awful.

    I have to try Nexxus too. My hair gets a mind of its own during winter! Thank you for pointing me to the right product to tame my hair. Oh, BTW, I love those red ankle boots you wore in the photos!

    I love Nexxus products. They used to market a product called Emergencee to salons, but they don’t really do it anymore. If you want an absolute miracle product, try it! It literally fixes dry and damaged hair from the inside out using protein polymers. You can find it on Ebay and I promise you will love it. No more winter/summer/spring/fall dry hair… ever! xoxo

Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Her Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Here’s what we ordered:

🌟Cucumber Salad - a bright and light starter I’d love to make these at home (and @glucosegoddess would be proud!)
🌟String Beans with Garlic - I would have eaten 3 more orders of this had they not been $16/each. I’ve already been searching for copy cat recipes because they are just SO DAMN GOOD
🌟Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao - these are their classic soup dumpling and very yummy and chewy and I loved the soy-vinegar sauce pairing with it
🌟 Sticky Rice & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai - these were recommended in a TikTok video but they weren’t my favorite. The rice plus the dough was just too much IMO
🌟 Chicken Spicy Wontons - these were very good! I would drink the bowl of sauce if no one was watching…
🌟 Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - wow, what a great to end the meal! We don’t order dessert often but this really good. Love the melty creamy chocolate!

I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard
