1. Finally attain the proper level of moisture!! My hair is kind of dry naturally, and low-porosity, so it's hard to get the moisture in...
2. Try new products!
3. Learn how to style my hair as beachy waves. I only focus on spirals, gotta mix it up!

Get rid of these flakes as much as possible! It's not bad or noticeable in the summer (do get itchy though from the chlorine) but awful in the winter!

Biggest goal? To STOP OBSESSING OVER MY HAIR and accept that bad hair days happen and they're not the end of the world. Rest include keep growing hair, avoid heat as much as possible and treat hair as gently as possible.

Oh man, that's mine too! I've come a long way in accepting that curly hair is always going to be messy and crazy. But even now when I see a bit of frizz, or a stray hair, or a curl that dried in a weird shape, I go nuts over it. People keep on telling me my 2nd day hair looks so nice, but I just can't believe them, LOL.
Other than that, I want to find an easier and quicker way to manage my hair so I don't have to spend an hour every day blowdrying my hair to get those "perfect" curls.

BSL or 14" of length. Right now I have 8" all around. I will be satisfied with that length. I have to stick to my regimen & hope for the best.

Keep doing what I did in 2011 and keep learning. I'm on a 5-year grow out plan for myself that ends in 2016.

Keep on working towards length while keeping my hair healthy. Aiming for BSL. Maybe try some fun things with color, though I'm afraid of damage.
Using all Curl Junkie products has really helped my dryness issues. I just hope I can keep using them when allergy season hits.

I'm doing a mini-chop to get rid of some heat damage from a recent salon straightening fiasco, then...
1. No straightening for a year (only trims)
2. Grow my hair out again!

Healthier hair by:
1.keeping up with trimming my ends
2.deep conditioning once a month
3.using an overnight treatment once a week
4.using kinky curly knot today and custard to style my hair as it leaves my hair shiny,defined, and moisturize
5.using henna and indigo to dye my hair jet black, my hair loves it
6.just making sure what ever else I put in my hair has no silicones and is has mostly natural ingridients with health benifits

CurlyTee21 my hair was BSL while curly before I had to chop it off. I hope to get it back to BSL soon and eventually make it to mid-back length.

Me too except mine ends in 2015. What length are you shooting for? I'm going for WL at maximum; BSL at minimum by that time. Currently just grazing shoulders when stretched and NL to CBL unstretched. I've got a ways to go but that's why I have a minimum and maximum length goal.
Also...
1. Mini trim every 4 months (3 times a year)
2. Continue to henna consistently (my hair really likes it).
3. Pretty much keep my 2011 hair care regimen since it's working for me and my hair.
4. And like you said, keep learning.

My goals are:
1. Keep my hair moisturized
2. Get my ends trimmed evry 3 mnths, that's what has worked for me this yr
3. Use low manipulation styling with my hair, I grew my hair from SL to BSL in a yr! Im proud of that!
4. Continue to let me hair grow as long as it can! I'm aiming for mid-back length this yr!
5. Shampoo evry 2 wks, cowash evry wk, DC evry 2 wks
6. Continue loving my healthy, beautiful, natural hair!
