At home: Boy, did I pick a good week to try anti-frizz products: New York was having a heat wave! The humidity made the city air feel like soup, and my naturally curly hair was large and in charge. Time to show my strands who's the boss! I used Dove Frizz Control Therapy Shampoo, Conditioner, and Taming Cream ($3.78 each) for five days. My curls were on their best behavior, and not once was I forced to pull my hair into a ponytail.
Pro treatment: At the end of the same soupy week, I went to New York City's Mario Diab salon for the Leonor Greyl Brilliance HairSpa Treatment ($80 to $120 depending on hair length). The hour-long treatment is the scalp massage to end all scalp massages, using moisture-boosting botanical oils, creams, and masks. Salon owner Diab was so confident in the treatment's success that he finished by blow-drying my hair straight. And son of a gun, it stayed sleek through three more days of hideous humidity.
