A successful recessionista can't forget about the details that complete a look. One of those details is of course your hair. Recessionistas are not always willing to throw down $200 or $400 on hair highlights - so a cheaper, faster way is to go with a single hair color. In this episode of The Masthead with Marie Claire we look at ways to get a bold look with a single hair color. Some quick tips include choosing a color no more then two shades away from your natural color and maybe going with a single process hair coloring.

We also take a look at four interesting new ways to color your nails. This fall we're seeing influence from Japan in the form of metallic sheets that are heated and pressed onto nails for a true chip proof metallic finish. We also have a great sparkle finish, the hombre finish, and a matte finish that goes great with your tough street ensemble.

Enjoy!
