There is no better day than the first of the year to take stock of your routines and set objectives for the ones that could use some work. Making new year's resolutions is a terrific way to start the year well and gives you a chance to establish new routines that will put you on a path to good health and productivity. You may make these adjustments to your weekly health routine, such as how frequently you work out and how much water you drink, or they could be made to your self-care routines, such as how you take care of your skin and hair.
To make 2023 your finest hair year yet, we'll discuss all the
hair care routines you can add to the New Year's resolutions list.
Is New Year's Resolution a Good Idea or Bad Idea?
New year resolutions are an amazing way to begin your new year on a good note and give you a mission for 2023. There is nothing better than working on yourself to create a better and more charming version of yourself. So this new year, promise to take extra care of your hair and turn these tips into healthy habits so you never see a bad hair day in 2023.
These hair care routines for women and men are easy to follow and give you healthier, shinier hair.
Follow along for 10 of our most achievable New Year's resolutions to make your hair this year.
- Frequent Hair Nourishing Treatments
Giving your hair some love once a week is so underrated. Why wait for special occasions to get that damaged hair treatment or a hair spa done? Unsurprisingly, good habits are worth the effort and are fruitful in the long run. You don’t have to go to a luxury salon every time, as you can use a DIY hair mask that provides the required moisturisation or nutrients for healthy hair. It’s all about making that effort once in a while, and in time, it will become a habit and a major contributor to your luscious and healthy hair.
- Eat Foods that Help your Hair
Starting from the inside out will result in healthy, lustrous hair, so pay attention to your food.
Since protein makes up your hair, it's critical to concentrate on protein- and iron-rich foods like eggs, fish, meat, and nuts to strengthen and grow your hair. Broccoli, strawberries, and oranges high in vitamin C, such as carrots, pumpkins, and sweet potatoes. In the new year, try to consume fewer processed foods, refined sugars, and foods high in vitamins and nutrients.
- Take Hair Fall Seriously
If you have been avoiding your hair problems or are tired of trying different things for hair fall, it’s time to see a hair specialist. A hair specialist will help you understand the root cause of your hair fall and suggest a suitable hair treatment. Ignoring hair fall can make your situation worse and most probably irredeemable. You can visit your nearest AHS clinic for an advanced hair check to tackle your hair fall issues.
- Change your Hairstyle
Why not switch up your haircut to reflect your new outlook if you're someone who celebrates the new year with the mindset of "new year, new you"? The start of a new year is ideal for experimenting with your hair.
You may shorten your hair by a few inches, add bangs, or even try a new colour. If you have dull, lifeless, or thin hair, you can even go ahead with AHS flashpoints. These extensions are very different from other hair extensions in the market as they do not use any glue or wax but interlock the hair extensions with your existing hair, making it look natural, healthy, and voluminous. It is a feel-good move that can get you some compliments.
- Try the No Heat Challenge
Let’s resolve to reduce hair damage from heat exposure in 2023! One of the best practices you can do for your hair's health is to embrace its natural texture and allow it to breathe. It takes figuring out what works for you among the heatless methods available to curl and smooth the texture of your hair. The key is to use heat sparingly.
If you believe it's impossible to give up the heat completely, we dare you to begin the year without it for seven days. At the very least, this will give your hair some downtime, and if the results impress you, it might be the start of a new regular practice that lasts longer than seven days.
- Switch to Natural Products
Do you understand what's in the products you use to style your hair and take a shower? If not, the start of the new year is the ideal moment to reconsider and choose new products made with natural ingredients or even more natural DIY masks. Among the many foods excellent for hair are avocados, honey, coconut oil, and apple cider vinegar, which are probably already in your kitchen cupboards.
- Switch to Silk PillowCase
Buying a silk pillowcase might be a perfect new year's resolution if you frequently experience hair problems like hair fall or tangled hair after a restful night's sleep.
The normal cotton pillowcase can harm and dry out the skin and hair, something many people may not be aware of. During the night, silk allows the hair to move freely, reducing frizz and giving you a sleek, silky texture when you wake up. Additionally, silk doesn't accumulate as many bacteria, which can aid in clearing up outbreaks. Both your skin and hair will benefit from this.
- Hair Restoration Treatments and Procedures
We understand the stereotypical myths surrounding hair treatments and hair transplants. The catch here is getting it done from a trusted entity. If you have done proper research, taken your time on how the procedure works, and left it in the hands of trusted and experienced hair specialists, you have nothing to worry about. So this new year, take that leap of faith in the AHS clinic, and we promise you satisfactory and successful results.
- Make Hair Care a Part Of Your Self-Care
Hair care should be a part of your self-care routine, whether it's scheduling a regular appointment with your hairstylist or slathering on a hair mask while you binge-watch your favourite reality programme. Don't treat caring for your strands like a task to cross off your to-do list. Take your time. As you would with a pedicure or facial, unwind and take the time to pamper yourself. As a result, both your mind and your mane will be healthier.

- Watch the Temperature
Even though taking a steaming hot shower can be like the ultimate indulgence, it’s not the best for your hair. The natural moisture in your hair can be stripped away by too hot water, leaving you with dry strands and faded, dull hair color. When washing your hair, lukewarm water is advised. Switch to lukewarm water in the year 2023, and you will definitely see the difference.
Conclusion
We want to motivate you with our hair care tips so you can make them your new year's resolutions. Your hair care routine is the ideal practice to start if you want to adopt a better version of yourself in the new year. Make some resolutions right away for hair that is healthier and looks better.
