My health goal is to maintain my weight since I lost 15lbs last year… I plan on keeping it there!
I *heart* AAA Shea Butter products. My health related goal this year is to lose 10 lbs , and my hair related goal is to try more protective styles and reach bra strap length. Good contest idea! Written goals are more likely to be attained!! 
Hello Mae
My name is Tamara and my hair goal for 2010 is to have better mositurized. It's gotten so dry!
My hair goal for 2010 is to have healthy, strong hair that doesn't break and also to have more growth. My hair has actually grown a lot since my big chop in July(I chopped right around the same time as Mae, w00t) and I would like to continue that healthy growth in the new year! I follow Mae on twitter (follow me, I'm xtremelyperfect) and have been following her blog from the beginning! I hope everyone has a great year of healthy hair and hopefully I win this contest and it'll get me off to a great start. My email is nadia.exama@gmail.com.

Hi To All My Natural Hair Sisters!
My name is Valerie.
I created a list of 20 things that I will do this year and 2 of those items are dedicated to my hair and health. I promised myself that I will keep a cute and protective style for these harsh winter months. Another vow is to keep my skin moisturized and as healthy as possible.
Oh! & I follow you on twitter. I am 'sw33tcreams' there.
Heyhey!!
My name is Udee and my hair goal for 2010 is for length down to my jaw line. During this time, I should have extremely healthy hair in every aspect of hair health. Also I aim to learn new style techniques, as well as master the flat twist style. I have a lot of hair goals lol
Anyway I follow NaturalChica and I absolutely love AAA products! I made a whipped cocoa-shea butter mix with AAA Mango Fragrance Shea Butter and AAA Cocoa-Nut Creme (NaturalChica suggested this to me via Twitter a while ago), which EVERYONE in my fam cannot live without! It's lovely!
Thanks for this great opportunity!!
Hi to all my natural hair sisters!
I'm Valerie.
I've written 20 items on the list for what I will do in 2010 and taking good care of my hair and health is on that very list. Specifically I promised to keep a cute protective style for these harsh winter months. Another vow I've made is to keep my skin moisturized & as healthy as possible.
nice.
My hair goal for 2010 is to figure out what works on my hair texture and how to style it. And not succumb to relaxing my hair b/c of the growing frustration with styling and selecting products that actually work. I am open to ANYONE/ANYTHING that can help me with this.
My goal for 2010. Is to not only maintain my natural healthy hair, but also my 9yr old daughter. Thanks to you and the youtube videos she is getting more comfortable wearing her natural hair with confidents!! Email ruby.boyce81@gmail.com Twitter Sweetvixen81
Hey Mae… I'm Camille. I have been a subscriber to your youtube channel for some time now, LOVE your vids! Any who.. my hair goal for 2010 is to achieve collar bone length if there is such a thing, it is currently at jawline (stretched). Also, I need to find a routine that will allow me to retain moisture… since the last month when it got really cold my hair has been suffering
My health goal is to maintain my weight since I lost 15lbs last year… I plan on keeping it there!

Greetings Everyone!!!
One of my hair related goals is not only to wear my hair the way that I WANT, and feel comfortable doing, but also to surround myself around positive energy, and ladies that can encourage me (as well as me encouraging them). I have realized that in this society, people need other people to encourage them, give ideas, and to grow. I currently live in Atlanta, and am a member of a natural hair group (which I love)! But it is very important to network all over the world!! Being natural is beautiful, it's organic, it's LOVE……
Email addy: lashandamjohnson@yahoo.com
Greetings Again!!! =)
One of my health related goals is to take care of myself now, so that I do not have to take care of myself later. There are some things in life that we can not control, but I do believe that we have some control over our healthy. Eating a balanced diet, exercise, being informed, and prayer is something that I am going to strongly apply in 2010. I want to pursue a healthy life physically and mentally. I believe that the mind and body are strongly connected!!! If we do not have our health, we do not have anything!!!
TWITTER FOLLOWER: BNME8EZ
GREETINGS ONE LAST TIME =)
Another hair goal that I would like to pursue is healthy hair growth!! I have a fantastic stylist, but last year I decided to cut about 5 inches off of my hair!! I did it because I wanted to try something new (and it was hot). I love my cut, but now I miss my hair!! Hair grows….no problem!! But I want my hair back now!!! LOL
AAA SHEA BUTTER TWITTER FOLLOWER: BNME8EZ
Today, I finally trimmed off the 1/2 inch of relaxed ends that were left. I am ready to fully embrace my TWA. My goal is to fine a regime that will last me through the winter weather to retain length. I almost plan to start eating my healthy and getting more sleep to help through the semester and to also help with my hair growth.

Hey Mae!! I actually have a hair related goal AND health related goal! My hair related goal is to find staple products so I can stop spending all of my money on trying to find one thing that works. However, I have already found a staple moisturizer and it is shea butter! It keeps my hair nice and moisturized and doesn't leave my ends feelings greasy.
My health related goal is to start eating right, meaning consuming more fruits and vegetables and possibly losing weight. I do love my body, but it would not hurt to shed just a few pounds!
Good luck to everyone & their goals. I am following Mae on Twitter, Youtube & AAA on twitter. (twitter.com/coarsedame)

Hey,
I'm ANTActress from YouTube! My hair goal for 2010 is to be consistent with a product line. I haven't found that hair product yet that I'm absolutely in love with but once I do, I'm going to stick with it and not change up my regimen. I think being consistent will give me the results I'm looking for! I plan on trying out a few more products this month and hope to find one that will help moisturize, condition, and strengthen and condition my hair.
Thanks!
*If I happen to win, please contact me through YouTube. (ANTActress) Thanks a bunch!

Hello, This is Tamara. My goal for 2010 is to get the big chop and keep growing my hair. I have been transitioning for a year now and have done a mini-chop, in March I hope that I will have the courage to go farther. I am loving the way my hair is growing so far!!!!

Hello Everybody! HAPPY NEW YEAR =)
My new years resolution related to hair/health is to…..quit hiding my beautiful natural hair under weaves and braids and embrace it more by wearing it out and finding ways to take care of it and style it.
>> I have been natural since 2007 and I have never worn my natural hair out for more than a couple of days, I go from braids to weave and vice versa. I love my hair and I really want to learn to take care of it better.

Hello my name is Derin and my hair goal for 2010 is to finally rock my natural hair. Ever since I big chopped in July 2009, I've had my hair in braids, kinky twist, wigs, and other protective styles because honestly I'm afraid that leaving my natural hair out equals to dry, dead hair (past experiences). I need to find a suitable moisturizer for my hair so I can overcome this fear and finally wear my hair out and feel confident.

Hello! My name is Alanna Bradley (Trulibeauti) and my hair goal for 2010 is to embrace being me! Well, its means me in terms of completing my transition as well as being happy with the natural me once I BC. I have struggled to find my identity and beginning this journee was the kick I needed to begin. I am embracing all my curls, and I realize that its about me and how I feel. I embrace EVERY aspect of me! This is a hair goal as well as a life changing goal!
Thanks!

My name is Jasmine and my hair related goal for 2010 is to help other ladies that want to go natural do it. I have 3 friends that want to go natural, but are afraid. I want to get at least one to actually do it. So that is my hair related goal for 2010.

Hair goals for 2010 are to free myself from the relaxer after ahem…20 years of the torture. I will big chop this year!!! So far I'm four months into transitioning.
Heyyyyyyyyyy! My name's Dorian aka Dee. I have worn my hair straight for the past 8 yrs. I went abroad to study for 6 months, got back a few weeks ago, and while I was gone I decided that it was the perfect time to go natural. Its been tough.
My goal for this year is to TAME THIS LION'S MANE!!! I want to focus more on mosturizing it and the overall look of it, getting trims, and deep conditioning treatments, etc. I suppose there will be some trials and errors, but I see success in my future! My email's dhay138@yahoo.com and Im also a follower of both! Chau!
Hello Mae and AAASheabutter!
My hair or health-related goal for 2010 would be to get a routine down so my hair is healthier. I have been natural for 6 yrs but never knew how to properly take care of my natural hair texture. I always straightened it and I ended up cutting 8 inches of hair off in the last 1 1/2 yrs trying to achieve healthy hair. I am almost there but I have a problem with splitting strands. I tend to chop of my hair causing me to lose length. I want to have healthy hair so I do not have to cut my hair anymore…finding a great product that will help me with my hair goal would great! I hope that AAAsheabutter is the product for me.

My health goal is to lose 10 lbs of fat and replace it with 10 lbs of muscle… I enjoy my body and size as it it is now but I feel it will be a plus to make my body type healthier with a little muscle…
My goal for 2010 is to use healthier products for my hair. I'm currently using products that have 'cones in them and they do really coat the hair.

Hello Mae
My goal for this year is to be happy and healthy!
I have been natural for 1.5 years and I have come to accept my natural hair experience as both a blessing and a learning process. Teh most importnat thing that I've learned while being natural is that hair health starts from the inside out.
So my hair and health goal for this year are essentially one in the same. I will eat healthy, exercise, and take better care of my hair.
More specifically, I want to retain as much growth/length as possible and try to be more adventurous with my hairstyles

Hello Mae! My hair goal for 2010 is to continue loving my beautiful, natural coils and giving it what they deserve, some loving TLC. I also want to stay away from the scissors so I can see just how long my hair can get in a year. It's going to be an exciting year! Thanks for listening.

Hey Mae! My name is Ansley
My Hair/Skin related goal is to have problem free scalp and natural hair for this year.
I have a scalp condition called seborrheic dermatitis that leaves my scalp extremely scaly, red and inflamed. I have been using prescribed shampoos (that contains sulfates Ahhhh!)They help me a lot, but it still leaves my hair and scalp a bit dry. I heard that shea butter can help with skin and hair problems like eczema which very similar to SD so I would love to give it a try.
Thanks for this contest Mae!
Good luck to everyone that enters the contest!
I have been transitioning from relaxer to natural since July 2006 and I need more help with products. That is why I am now following and subscribed to NaturalChica.com and Nikkimae! Please Help Me!
Hey Mae! My name is TaRee (facebook) reereej2003 (youtube) tareemusic (twitter)
My goal for 2010 is to be more competent with my hair care. I plan to do research on the ingredients in the products that I use and the effects they may have on my hair. As a new natural I thought I would be more concerned with length, but I'm just appreciating healthy hair that makes me feel beautiful, unique and real!

Hey Mae Happy 2010 My natural hair goal for 2010 is to have confidence.

Hey Mae!!! My hair goal for this year is to take better care of my hair. Last year I lost a lot of hair in the process of trying to switch over and stop my mother from perming my hair. In 2010 I would like to grow my hair out at least 3 inches, and add shine back to my hair.

Hey Mae,
This will mark the year of my 10 year anniversary using relaxers. In 2010, starting Feb, I will be transitioning from relaxed to natural hair! I've tried in the past to make the transition and got very discouraged. I had NO idea, which products worked well on my hair. I am still a bit frustrated with the wait and how much time, it really takes. However, I am ready to go all NATURAL!

My Goal for 2010 is a Hair and health related goal. My goal is to be all natural when it comes to my hair and my health. I want to fall in love with myself this year. and what i mean by thats is loving and caring for my body in the way it should be cared for by not putting harmful chemicals in or on my body. This year i want to love my body naturally as if it was the last time I was going to see it. ( it's not like I can get anouther one!) So 2010 is the ban on harmfull chemicals entering my home and body. to provide a good natural healthy example for my daughter.
Always,
Martina
Hi Mae! My 2010 hair goal is to find a regimen that works for me and stick to it. I have been tryign so many different products since I started to be truly natural in June 2009. I have a serious case of the PJs and need to get that in check! Hopefully, 2010 will help me begin the journey to a tried and true method of products and styles.
Thanks for what you do!

Hi Mae! Just wanted to share with you and the Natural Community (Hey Yall!) some of my hair goals for 2010. First of all everyone knows that healthy hair begins with proper nourishment of the body. We frequently hear, "We are what we eat." In embracing this truth, I've determined that I will be cautious of what I ingest. So far I've signed up with Louel's "No Junk for a Year" challenge to jumpstart my year of healthful eating. Second, I've vowed to use only natural/organic products. My motto, "if it's not ingestable, it's protestable!" Last, but not least, I've began handling my hair with care. I'm not obsessed with growth, but nothing lives without growing, so do I expect to see the fruits of my labor in due time (end of 2010). This will be a year where my actions will be louder than these written words. 2010 will consist of MANY big/little moments where I'm taking/making the time to say I love me through proper eating, and spoiling my tresses to no end (just not split ones). I'm sure my mind, body (hair), and soul with thank me later. I'm purposing that 2010 will be a year to appreciate what God's already given me. Thanks for the eye(ear).
Hola, Mae!!!
This is Rae..lol. My hair related goal for 2010 WAS for me to do my BC, but since I have taken care of that goal already, I'd like to, now,find my own natural hair care regimine (i.e. what products and techniques work best for me, etc.).
In addition to this goal I'd also like to continue providing support for my 3 sisters and mother, who are all going natural or already there. It's a positive movement within my family and I really want to continue being an inspiration to them all.
My email: LovelyRaeDawn@hotmail.com
Hi! My name is Deon and I started 2010 off with a bang! (New year – new me!)
Did my BC on 1/2/10 and now have an itsy bitsy TWA! My hair goals for 2010 are to find the right products to keep it moisturized and healthy, and to learn how to do some hair styles. (Your YouTube videos are keeping me inspired!) My health goals are to eat healthier meals and to get back on an exercise program.
Thank you!!!

MY HAIR GOAL FOR 2010 IS TO REGROW HAIR THAT WAS LOST WHILE I WAS RELAXED AND RETAIN LENGTH. I FOLLOW NATURAL CHICA ON TWITTER AND THE BLOG. I ALSO FOLLOW AAA SHEA BUTTER ON TWITTER AND FACEBOOK. I WOULD LOVE TO WIN.
My goal for 2010 is to become healthy (phsically and mentally) and to let my natural hair grow long. In 2006, my ten year old son passed away. During this traumatic time, I became very depressed and start eating a lot. I gained 100 pounds because of the binge eating.
I kept watching videos on youtube about natural hair. Majority of the women explained how good and free they felt after their big chop. So, in August 2009, I did it. And it felt so good. I felt like I could conquer the world. My big chop is what help me pick myself up. I plan to keep my hair natural forever.
I signed up for a memership at a gym so that I can work out three days/week. I also started walking for two hours two days/week. I know that my chances of winning this contest is slim but, I just want to share my experience with others who are probably going through rough times. It will not last forever. You will be able to wake up and have a smile on your face. Nikkimae websites are very inspirational and informative. I subscribe to NaturalChica.com, Natural Chica on facebook, and AAAshea butter on facebook. Thanks and good luck everyone.

I know that my chances of winning this contest is slim but, I just want to share my experience with others who are probably going through rough times. It will not last forever.

My name is Nik I am enjoying going through this hair journey with you. My goal for 2010 is for more hair growth and learn how to moisturize my hair better. I follow you on naturalchica.com, your twitter, and facebook as well as sheabutter AAA on facebook and twitter so for my 2nd entry my goal is definitely healthy hair growth. My email is Menyell@yahoo.com
My goal for 2010 is to become healthy (phsically and mentally) and to let my natural hair grow long. In 2006, my ten year old son passed away. During this traumatic time, I became very depressed and start eating a lot. I gained 100 pounds because of the binge eating.
I kept watching videos on youtube about natural hair. Majority of the women explained how good and free they felt after their big chop. So, in August 2009, I did it. And it felt so good. I felt like I could conquer the world. My big chop is what help me pick myself up. I plan to keep my hair natural forever.

Hi to all my fellow natural sisters. My name is Latasha and my hair goal for 2010 is use natural products as much as possible, use little to no heat(none so far since my BC back in Nov.2009)and just to learn as much as I possibly can about taking care of my God given beautiful healthy natural hair. I know and realize now that I can achieve "ANY" goal that I set for myself. Never thinking I would be a natural diva, I now know that I can be a healthy one also, so my health goal for 2010 is to start exercising, whether it be walking, ab lounging, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, ect., having a better eating habit and I want and need to lose weight, so all that's within me I'm going to really try hard to year to reach my health goal. I want to live a long, fulfilling life and I also want to see my kids get grown. It's 20:10 and I WANT TO BE THIN (NER…LOL) I love ya, natural sisters!
This is my second entry. I would really like to win this contest just b/c I really never ever win anything lol! But, yeah I subcribed to NikkiMae several weeks ago cause I really enjoyed watching her videos. I also became a fan on NaturalChica and I also sent out request to some of my natural family members on Facebook to become fans and guess what they accepted my request. I'm natural, two of my older sisters, four of my nieces and a sister in law, and I had five out of the seven to become fans of NaturalChica……not bad (pats self on the back). I became a fan of AAASheabutter (FB) and a follower on twitter, and a follower of NaturalChica on twitter as well. I have read alot of the other comments and I was really touched by some so my thoughts goes out to everyone. I wish that we all could win, b/c we are winners and I just want to wish everyone Goodluck in their natural journey and as well in this contest. Nothing But the Best in 2010! God Bless!
I'm A twitter Fan. Thanks alot for the contest I think its very inspirational start to the new year getting evryone to think about thre health and hair related goals.
Always,
Martina
My hair and health goals for the year are to use more natural products for my hair and body. I plan on drinking more water for my skin, and eating healthier (possibly go vegetarian), this also promotes healthier hair. (luvkai9277@yahoo.com)
I am also Facebook friends for both and follow both on Twitter (@DezignMommy)
I am a blog subscriber too (NaturalDezign).
Hey Nikki its Peace! My goal for this year is to get in shape, spiritually, with my hair, and my body. I wanna be a better me with God and good friends right by my side to help! Talk to you soon!
Oh and I also subscribe to your Youtube channel (luvkai9277).
My goal Hair goal for 2010 is to stop hair breakage and to retain growth. I am currently using 100% shea butter which keeps my hair mositured, however, I am having some hair breakage and I think it is due to not having enough protein. Also I plan on eating more fruits and veggies, and complete a cleansing to prevent premature aging and disease.
hi, nikki its tiffany i chatted with you a week ago on facebook about my hair. here is my story i started transitioning jan 01, 2010, so i have a long journey but im educating myself day by day on natural hair. i would love to try out new products such as shea butter, i havent tried anything yet because im new at it but winning this would be a great start. i decided to go natural because i need a change inside and out. so watching your videos is a huge help!! i follow you everywhere: twitter// sweetness686 on facebook im your fan: tiffany sweetness clarke and im also on your youtube: tiff686
ENTRY 1:
Hello Mae,
My first goal for the year 2010 is to find out what works best with my hair, retain length, & have the healthiest hair possible. I made the decision to start transitioning in May 2009 because I had a patch of hair to break off so badly that all you saw was scalp. This was the second time it had happened and enough was enough. So May 21, 2009 was the day I had my last relaxer and I did the big chop December 5, 2009. So far unrefined shea butter mixed with coconut oil and other essentials oil works really well for my hair. I've also found that when going natural you reach a new level of bravery because it takes a certain level of courage to rock a TWA! I have you as well as other YouTubers such as shauntae1 and healthyhairjourney, just to name a few, to thank for inspiring me to embrace the natural me.
ENTRY 2: (I'm subscribed to your YouTube channel as well as your Natural Chica blog)
Hello Again!
My second goal for 2010 is to be as great of an inspiration to others as much as all the natural ladies of YouTube have been for me. So far I only have two videos or rather slideshows of my natural journey. Starting with the first day I started watching YouTube I realized that watching others, learning from them, and listening to their encouraging words really help a lot. Especially when you get discouraged and want to quickly go back to the "creamy crack" LOL….I made rhyme. So part of my goal to inspire others is to create more videos about my journey as well as just expressing how I feel as I travel along this journey.
Hey my goal for the year 2010 is to cut off all my relaxed hair and learn how to best care for my natural hair. I intend to nurture it like a baby and learn what my 'baby' likes specifically and which things bring harm to it.

Hello everyone!
I first would like to say to read some of these posts it make me remember and again realize why I became natural and continuous loving being natural!
My health and hair goal for 2010 is to take the time to better understand my mind, body and soul. Once I begin to understand my mind, body and soul I will become more in tune with the person God destined me to be, which will ultimately allow me to take better care of my mind, body, soul and hair! This will help me to also follow a healthier diet and hair regimen. Once everything is working in tune with each my hair will of course flourish, like a flower when it gets all the water and sun light that it needs to grow. My hair is the flower, without my mind, body and soul being one my hair will not flourish.
I also have a health goal to be able to run a half marathon of which I have been training for and continuously praying to God to give me the strength to do it!
Thank you everyone and good luck being NATURAL DIVAS!!!!!!!!

My goal for 2010 is to blow out my natural hair. I have already done the big chop and the curly do, but now I want to embrace my curls more fully and just do stuff to the natural state without blowing it out.
My goal for 2010 is to transition to natural hair. I'm going to do the long transition before doing the big chop. I am beginning to embrace my natural hair.
Health wise my goal is to eat healthy and to continue to tone up. I only have 8 more pounds to lose before I am at my goal weight.
Thanks!

Hi! I'm Nile and this is the one year anniversary since I've gone natural.

I've subscribed to all your websites and I've learned most of my hair care tips from you. Thank you for what you do! Best wishes.
Hi,
My health goal this year is to continue to eat small meals throughout the day, drink at least 100 oz of water per day, continue to exercise and incorporate strength training in my workout regimen. I want to get to a healthier weight to avoid getting age and weight related diabetes, high blood pressure and cancer.

Hey Mae!
Come February, I'm going to have 1 year natural under my belt.. I'm super-excited because I've come a long way since those days where you could see my scalp. It was a big shock to friends and family, so my hair goal for 2010 is to encourage more of a general acceptance for natural hair and to show people basically… if I can do it you can too!
ps. I'm a fan to both AAA Shea Butter and Natural on FB and I'm following y'all on Twitter. @Chri2tina
Hello!!

Hi Mae,
My hair goal for 2010 is to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! I haven't had a perm in over 3 years and have been wearing my hair in a ponytail for just as long:). Water and grease. I know, it sounds awful. But, a fter viewing hair care vids on youtube and various websites, I found that if I treated my hair w/ a good shampoo, conditioner and moisturize, I too can "rock" the cute natural hairstyles. I tried shea butter and FELL IN LOVE. Girl, it's wonderful. So, my goal is pretty easy-use more shea butter in 2010.

Hey Nikki and AAA!
My hair-related goals for 2010 are:
A)To experiment with different products(especially natural ones)
B)To educate myself on MY hair
C)To post a pic of myself with my natural hair on my facebook profile.
[Let Me Explain]
I BCed a month ago. I do wear my twa when I go out, and most of my family has seen it but I'm not prepared for the shock and possibly negative comments about my hair, but I'm working on it. I know before the end of this year I'll post a pic of myself au natural
almost forgot my email… anaysa.frederick@gmail.com
Hi Mae,
My hair goals for 2010 are HEALTHY NATURAL HAIR and a healthier natural ME. After transitioning for 4 months I BC'd (again) December 25,2009. I BC'd the first time about 10 months ago but after about 3 months lost courage and confidence. I got a texturizer but instantly regreted my decision and started to transition all over again. This time I have armed myself with education and awareness. It's about getting to know my hair and using the RIGHT products. I'm learning to encourage myself and a little pep talk from Mae NEVER hurts!
I follow you facebook, YouTube and TWITTER… I am a fan of AAA on facebook.

I've been reading all the great comments. They're so inspiring!
I just wanted to give an update one last time.
Its been about 3 weeks into the new year and I've been keeping my hair moisturized with vegetable glycerin and sealing the moisture in with a bit of shea butter. My hair has stayed soft and healthy looking for most of the winter all thanks to this method.
My skin has also been reaping the benefits of shea butter and veggie glycerin.
My this summer I expect to have a head full of healthy hair and glowing skin!
Thank you Mae and AAA shea butter for this contest and thank you to all the ladies who have helped me learn what to do to keep my hair healthy!

My health goals for 2010 are to start taking better steps to prevent diabetes. Diabetes runs on both sides of my family and I had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with my son. So I figure now is as good a time as ever to start getting serious about making lifestyle alterations like going to the gym at least 3x a week and eating more whole and unprocessed foods.
My hair goals for 2010 is to get a solid routine down. My moisture is way off and I plan to take better care of my ends. This year my hair and scalp will be getting some TLC.
