Tricks to Beat Frizz on Humid Days

I love the hair and makeup commercials I see on tv and on AOL: “Tricks to Beat Frizz on Humid Days” the headline reads.  “The Best Foundation for Summertime.”  Have these writers ever lived in Florida?  It doesn’t matter what gel or spray you put on your hair and what styling tools you use, the Florida humidity in the summer will soak into your hair as surely as if you walked through a steam bath.  And waterproof, sweatproof foundation and mascara?  Not so.  They slide right off.  Until I travelled outside Florida for the first time, I thought everywhere had high humidity.  After I took my first trip out west, I realized that wasn’t the case.  I lived in California for awhile and that’s when I realized, ah, that’s where these writers live.  They must think everyone lives in the same climate as they do.
