I've never been anywhere quite like Houston, Texas. From the kindness of Houstonians to the size of their margaritas, everything is amplified. And hair is no exception.

As soon as we pulled into the gate at IAH, my limp locks took on a life of their own. A touch of red lipstick and light foundation, and I could have been mistaken for a member of KISS. Seriously, the level of humidity was just incredible.

If you live in (or travel to) a similar climate, prevent "the puff" with one of these simple, frizz-fighting tricks:

Soak It Up
When using a smoothing serum, the key is to apply the product to soaking wet hair, then dry the ends with a towel.

Sleep It Off
Washing your hair at night, then air- or blow-drying before bed can help add texture and reduce excess volume by morning.

Wrap It Up
If you're tight on time, wrap your hair into a braided chignon. It's chic and easy to do. To tame shorter tresses, use a wide headband or scarf.
