The last time I went to Times Square to see the ball drop on New Year’s Eve was when 1999 turned into 2000. What an amazing sight to see 2,688 Waterford Crystal triangles shining like diamonds in the sky! (Sorry, Rihanna) Each year, millions of eyes from all over the world are focused on the sparkling Waterford Crystal Times Square New Year's Eve Ball. At 11:59 p.m., the Ball begins its descent as millions of voices unite to count down the final seconds of the year, and celebrate the beginning of a new year full of hopes, challenges, changes and dreams.

Since then, I have dropped the ball by watching its shining descent on television and not venturing out to Times Square like other millions of viewers. I have also dropped the ball on keeping my hair shining brightly and manageable this winter. Maybe it’s the heat in my Greenwich Village apartment or just my laziness with hair oils, but my New Year’s resolution is to keep my hair shining bright like diamonds and also shine a light on the best oils for your hair by Matrix.
