Keep your hair and skin looking healthy for all of 2026! Here are Heather E.’s top 10 must-have products and services for the new year. “As I look toward a milestone birthday, I want to look and feel my best, and I know it starts with a healthy foundation!”
- Aveda Hand Relief: “This classic hand crème has been at my nightstand for over 20 years. The rich crème keeps my hands deeply moisturized throughout the winter months.”
- Aveda Foot Relief: “I want my feet to be sandal-ready by spring break, and TLC for my heels begins with Aveda Foot Relief. This crème is infused with peppermint oil and tea tree oil to cool and refresh my feet after a long day, and exfoliating fruit acids help break down those calluses and cracked heels.”
- Regular pedicures! “Sure, they feel amazing, but getting a pedicure is also great for you. It can help to improve circulation and soothe your hard-working feet.”
- Ormedic Lip Enhancing Complex: “Another nightstand essential. I apply this every evening and wake up to soft, hydrated lips. With both avocado oil and vitamin E, this product instantly soothes my chapped lips.”
- IMAGE Max Crème: “This is my indulgence, and it is worth every penny! This rich hydrating crème is great for all skin types, and with antioxidants and peptides it fights aging!”
- Ongoing facial appointments: “Facials provide relaxation, a cozy bed, and a massage that extends to your neck and shoulders to release tension, but it also is a great way to exfoliate dead skin cells, deeply clean your skin and overall provide better skin health.”
- Bumble & bumble Gentle Shampoo and Super Rich Conditioner: “This combo is gentle enough to use daily! Finding the right shampoo and conditioner is the best way to create a healthy foundation for your style. If you invest in a great shampoo and conditioner, your cut looks cleaner, and your style lasts throughout the day.”
- Bumble & bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Primer: “This product does it all! It hydrates, reduces frizz, softens, and adds shine. Plus, it helps provide nourishment and smoothing and gives heat protection, which is a MUST for healthy hair!”
- Regular haircuts: “Not only do you feel amazing after a fresh cut, it’s good for your hair! It reduces breakage and can help promote hair growth!”
- Water! “Nope, we don’t sell any at Cole’s, but it’s something that has been a staple throughout my day every day! Hydration starts with what you put in your body and impacts your skin, scalp, and hair. Add in some lemon, have it on ice … just keep sipping on it all day long to help you look and feel great.”
