You can either go to beauty school, or invest a lot less money and time by purchasing a few DVDs that tutor you in plain English (or Spanish) on exactly how to cut hair or do a proper manicure on men and women.

One of the many things people cut back on in a tough economy are the personal luxuries like salon visits and nail appointments.

But smart consumers have the know-how to do what the pros can, and keep up appearances for a fraction of the cost of a salon visit.

How do you "get" this know-how?
