You’ll Be a Better Friend

If you give yourself permission to stay away from friends when you need it, you will be much more likely to be there for them when they need you and you can spend more quality time together. Nothing will go wrong if you respect each other’s alone time.

Recharge

You can easily guilt yourself into thinking that, as a parent, you shouldn’t spend any time alone from your family unless for work and other things that you must do, but allowing yourself an occasional break will help you recharge and be a better parent to your kids.

You Won’t Burn Out

Endless workflow, meetings, and social events can really drain you, especially if those things aren’t in your nature. Sometimes staying at home reading a book is all you need to prevent burnout, and your friends will understand that you need to skip a night out.

Heel to Toe

If you’re annoyed about looking ungraceful in heels, you’re probably walking wrong. Instead of putting your whole foot down like you would in flats, you need to practice putting your heel down first, then your toe. This will make the walk easier and better-looking.

Small Steps

You can’t expect to keep the same pace in heels compared to wearing flats or sneakers. Your steps should be smaller, so don’t wear heels if you’re running late!

Right Fit

There’s nothing worse than walking in heels that don’t fit you right. Always try on the shoes before purchasing them and make sure they fit your feet regardless of the size you usually wear.

Go Easy on the Shampoo

Now maybe the perfect time to start washing your hair less often, if possible. Cold weather and dry air indoors make your hair drier, so it will probably stay clean a bit longer. Add another day between two washes and let the natural oils from your scalp moisturize your hair.

Weekly Treatments

Hair masks and treatments can help tremendously. Make it a weekly ritual to pack your hair as you do other self-care things, such as painting your nails. Turn it into a fun and relaxing activity!

Avoid Heat

You’ll probably have to blow dry your hair after washing during winter, but try to avoid using a curling iron or flat iron. All that heat can further damage your hair that will become brittle in the cold weather. Try experimenting with hair accessories and different styles like braids instead!

Stick to Your Routines

When all else fails, your routines will keep you going. Never forget their importance and make sure to have both the routines that will help you get stuff done and routines that will help you feel good.

Be Unapologetic About Recharge Time

No matter how crazy December gets, you have the right to get some time to yourself to get some rest and recharge before continuing. You may need a day alone with your favorite food and movies or an evening with your best friend; whatever it is, do it!

Ditch the Guilt

The holidays are the time of indulgence and you shouldn’t feel guilty about eating or drinking a bit more than you should. Enjoy all your favorite treats in moderation and let yourself feel good about it.

You probably know this scenario too well – how many times have you struggled with getting your hair just right before dinner with friends, an important day at work, or that date you’ve been looking forward to for weeks?‌ There are days when your hair just won’t listen to you, no matter what you do. A low bun is a perfect way to tame it, and if you practice a little bit, you will learn how to make it “messy” enough so it doesn’t look too serious. The trick is often in those few strands that fall out and frame your face!

Depending on the effect you want to achieve, place it a bit lower or higher. The bun on the back of your head is more elegant, while the bun that’s closer to your neck can look more casual and boho. Scroll down to see our top suggestions.

The milk tea hair color falls between dark blonde and light brown and is neither too cool nor too warm. It looks like a color that may look great on many different skin tones, and it’s especially great for girls who just want a slight change.

“When asking your colorist for something similar, you want to stress that you’re looking for a color melt look that starts more warm-toned at the root but transitions to ash on the ends,” explains colorist Olivia Smalley.

“The key here is making sure there is a complete elimination of gold on those lighter ends while maintaining gold on the roots.”
