The best thing to do is to keep a dream journal, if you don't all ready. A few years ago, I kept one and got to remembering four dreams on average per night, but I slowly stopped and my recall dropped to rarely remembering dreams. Two nights ago, I started again when I remembered one dream and all ready I've remembered five dreams for last night. Try not to force remembering dreams and just note down the themes you remember from a dream as soon as you wake up/remember them. Hopefully, doing so jogs more detailed memories of the dream.
I'm sure someone will come along with much better advice than me, but I like to help if I can :)
Moth gave excellent advice. I would definitely keep a dream journal if you don't have one already. I personally like to keep a paper journal by my bed, but I've heard of people using digital formats as well (Cell Phone, Tablet, Computer.) You can also start one here on dreamviews if you scroll up and look to the top left :)
At first you may not remember a lot but don't get discouraged. If you wake up and all you remember is a face, a feeling, or a phrase.. anything - write it in your journal. You'll find that a lot of lucid dreaming is intention. Keeping the dream journal lets your 'subconscious mind' know that it's important to remember your dreams.

Hey there! Welcome to DV :)
Definitely keep a dream journal. Like the others said, it might be disappointing not remembering at first, but after a while your recall WILL get better. The thing is, the more you INTEND to remember them, the more your subconscious will help you out and realize that dreams are important to you. Also keep an eye out for dream signs, or recurring elements in your dreams. These can help too, because sometimes when you cant remember your dreams, you can go through your dream signs in your head and try to recall if they were in it again. Most of the time, they are, and from there, you can connect the dots and recall the rest of the dream.
Good luck! If you need anything dont hesitate to post or send a private message :)
