Sleep With a Scarf - While this is the easiest resolution, it’s the hardest to follow.

Massage Your Scalp - Speaking of massages, doing that to your scalp with an oil of your choice during the week is a great way to help stimulate follicles, help with dry scalp and is also super relaxing. Good oils to use are coconut, almond and olive oils, all of which you can buy at a grocery store near you. (Photo: Dave & Les Jacobs/Blend Images/Corbis)

Trim Those Dead Ends - Seriously, why are you holding on to those scraggly ends? Length is great, but not if those ends are chewed up. Let them go and start getting regular trims. Doing so will stop split ends from riding up your hair, help you retain length better over time and make your hair look even and more amazing. (Photo: 68/George Doyle/Ocean/Corbis)

Accept Your Hair for What It Is - This is an important message for all, especially the #TeamNatural girls. Stop trying to find that product that will transform your hair into something it’s not. Love your hair for what it can do and learn how to make it work — just as it is. (Photo: Daniel Attia/Corbis)
