We all have bad hair days, but instead of cursing the mighty hair gods and calling in sick, you might want to consider packing your bags. There are a number of factors contributing to frustrating frizz and dried out strands, but as it turns out it, they could all be due to the city you call home. From looking at national averages of humidity/wind/rain/sun, water-hardness, pollution levels and even the number of salons in the area, Totalbeauty.com has located the worst cities for your 'do. Did your city make the list?

No. 13: Eugene, Oregon
It's nicknamed "The Emerald City," and is also known for being extremely humid. No one wants frizzy pigtails, so pull a Dorothy and click your heels -- hopefully you�ll find yourself in no place like Eugene.

No. 12: Albuquerque, New Mexico
Dry, sunny and has hard water. Hop on a raft and take the Rio Grande out of town. (Or get some rehab for your dry hair here.)

No. 11: Cincinnati, Ohio
It's the 7th most polluted city in the U.S., but here is the real kicker, Cincinnati has only eight hairstylists listed on yellowpages.com � No comment necessary.

No. 10: New Orleans, Louisiana
Ok, so Mardi Gras is worth a trip, but living here wouldn't be a party for your hair, seeing as it ranks as the 9th most humid city and 8th wettest.
