No Horseplay With Salon Mario Russo's Free Ponytails

This heat, we can deal with. Embrace it, even. The humidity? Not so much.

Which is why even the most limp, lifeless and frizzed-out mane can benefit from the power of a ponytail—and why you should take yours to one of Salon Mario Russo's two locations for an expertly-placed pony, complimentary with the purchase of a can of Emi-Jay hair ties (designed to keep those ponies looking sleek and snag-free—the best kind of ponytails, if you ask us).

Now, let your nape breathe free, and be on your merry way. Optional: blasting Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" on your iPod while you waltz down Newbury Street.—Karyn Polwaczyk
