Must-Know Styling Tips
Nelson J Salon stylist Vivian Czornoba offers these tips to make any hairstyle look gorgeous:

1. Before styling, apply Aveda Smooth Infusion Style-Prep Smoother, $24, to damp hair. It will help protect hair from heat and minimize styling damage.

2. If you don't have one, there's no need to buy a separate light-hold hairspray. Just use less of a regular-hold product and spritz it from farther away to achieve the same effect.

3. Hot rollers are great for adding body to any style but remember to let rollers cool completely before removing them; otherwise, the curl and body won't hold.
