Tips by Celebrity Stylist and “Best of LA 2008″ Winner Nelson Chan of Nelson J Salon.

Beverly Hills – Celebrity haircolorist and stylist Nelson Chan, also founder of the eco-friendly Nelson J salon in Beverly Hills, offers some quick tips for styling hair for the holidays without having to go into the salon.

Everyone is worried about the economy at this time, and holiday spending always puts pressure on individuals as well as entire families, so I thought it would be great to give girls and women some ideas of how to creatively style their hair at home this year,” offers Chan, who was recently named “Best of LA” by Los Angeles Magazine for “ammonia-free haircoloring” (August 2008). “Being able to style hair at home versus going to the salon may save anywhere between $50 – $100 this season.”

Fun, Sexy Curls Using Hot Rollers:
- Choose the right size rollers for you (large rollers create loose curls or soft waves, while small rollers create tighter curls and waves)
- Take 2-inch sections of dry hair and pull the hair at 90 degrees from the head
- Roll the curls away from the face
- Set for 5-10 mins
- Undo the rollers and comb hair with fingers
