America's Best and Worst Hair Cities
Have you ever considered that the city where you live may be to thank (or to blame) for the health and stylishness (or lack thereof) of your hair? Over at the website Total Beauty, they took several factors into consideration, and ranked some of the country's best and worst hair cities.
Apparently, when humidity levels, pollution amounts, rainfall totals, average wind speeds, water hardness levels, and the number of beauty salons per capita come together in the perfect combination, the result can be beautiful hair. Check out some of the country's best hair cities. Is your city helping or hurting your tresses?

Did your town make the list? Unfortunately, mine did not. I guess that means I'll have to take it into my own hands to try to make my hair look good - even with the high humidity and hard water. *Sigh*
Luckily for me, my city didn't make the list of “worst hair cities,“ either. But if you're already fed up with living in one of these unlucky 13 places, maybe it's officially time to pack your bags and head to greener pastures.
America's 13 worst hair cities are:
- Corpus Christi, Texas
- Olympia, Washington
- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
- Las Vegas, Nevada
- Phoenix, Arizona
- Pensacola, Florida
- Fresno, California
- Houston, Texas
- Tucson, Arizona
- New Orleans, Louisiana
- Cincinnati, Ohio
- Albuquerque, New Mexico
- Eugene, Oregon
Sorry, Corpus Christi residents. Texas may be your destination of choice if big hair is your thing, but Corpus Christi's extreme humidity, hard water and small handful of salons make it one of the worst hair cities around. Better find an amazing, trained Texas hairstylist!
Do you have any tricks for overcoming the environmental hazards in your city? Maybe if you choose a cosmetology career, you'll help your city win the battle against bad hair!
