Mother's advice.

I love the winter, but I am not so in love with the static that is associated with New England's driest season. It's hair-raising. Haha.
When I was in fifth grade, my mom offered me this advice: If static electricity causes your hair to stand up, simply lick the palm of your hand and rub your hair for instant results. You should tell your friends.
Worst. Advice. Ever.
Not the hair part - that actually works - but the "tell your friends you spit in your own hair" part. I did not heed it, until today, insulated by internet anonymity.

So if you find yourself out and about without a can of Static Guard and your hair begins to flee from your head, just lick your palm to tame it. It works, tell your friends.

That's almost as bad as licking a tissue and wiping your face with it like my grandma used to do..LOL

...or a mother licking their thumb to clean your face. Eewww, mommy spit. I hated it. LOL

I bet that works though! :)
