INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household use.
Use on Alternating Current (60 Hertz) only.
Standard appliances are designed to operate at
120 volts AC.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). As a safety feature,
this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
GETTING STARTED
The iron’s multi-attachment feature is
designed to provide you with styling versatility
for all hair textures. Your special styles combo
unit includes a 3/4" curling iron, straightener/
crimper plates, brush sleeve and spiral sleeve
attachments – all of these different styling
options in one tool.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into any house-
hold outlet (120V). The ready dot will let you
know when it is ready to begin styling. You
can adjust the temperature to high or low
depending upon your hair type and styling
needs. Never leave your curling iron on and
unattended.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each sec-
tion before curling. Pressing the curl release,
place curling iron midway up the hair section,
then spread hair evenly between spoon and
barrel. Release automatic curl release to hold
hair in place. Gently slide curling iron down to
hair ends. To avoid crimped ends, make sure
they are securely wound under the spoon in
the direction of the desired curl.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it
curled, being careful not to let the iron touch
the scalp; when using the brush sleeve, do
not roll hair around it more than two times, to
avoid tangling. Hold in place for 8-12 seconds,
depending on the texture and length of your
hair. For tighter, bouncier curls, roll less hair.
For looser, free flowing curls, roll more hair.
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and
press the automatic curl release. To set the
curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
5. If you prefer to use the brush sleeve for
more control, be sure to slide it over the
curling iron while the iron is cool or off. Use
of the hot styling sleeve brush is very easy
to master. Roll one section of hair at a time
around the hot styling brush from the bottom
up. TO AVOID TANGLING, NEVER ROLL THE
HAIR AROUND THE HOT STYLING BRUSH
MORE THAN TWO TIMES. When hair is warm
(not hot) to the touch, the curl is set. For hair
that is harder to curl, leave the hot styling
brush sleeve in place a little longer. A hot styl-
ing brush sleeve generally gives a lighter curl
than a curling iron – for very hard-to-curl hair,
try switching to the curling iron.
6. The hot styling brush sleeve attachment
can be used for quick touch-ups without
shampooing. After heating the hot styling
brush, simply brush the hair back to its origi-
nal style. To change the style, mist the hair
lightly with water before using the hot styling
brush. No combing is necessary!
7. For fun spiral, textured curls use the spiral
sleeve attachment.
HOW TO CHANGE STYLING HEADS:
Changing styling heads is easy.
1. Make sure appliance is unplugged and cool.
2. Turn locking dial to the right to unlock.
3. Pull attachment straight off.
4. To put new attachment on power handle,
make sure counter rest faces in opposite
direction of switch and light.
5. Push attachment into power handle.
6. Turn locking dial to the left to lock securely
in place.
TO STRAIGHTEN HAIR
To straighten hair, use straightener styling
plates. Start with a hair section that is 1" wide
and no more than 1/2" thick. Open the barrel
and place a hair section between the two hot
plates close to your scalp. Trap hair between
plates by firmly squeezing the handles together.
While maintaining the tension, slowly pull the
unit down along the hair section toward end
of hair. At the end of the hair section, release
the pressure on the handle and allow the hair
section to slide out. Continue this process on
additional sections of hair until you achieve the
hair style you desire.
For extra styling, turn the straightening iron
under when nearing the end of the hair
section. This will give a nice flip to your hair.
Some experience is necessary when first
using this straightening iron. After a few uses,
you will learn the ideal way to straighten and
style your hair easily.
TO CRIMP HAIR
To create fun, trendy crimp styles use the
crimper plates. Start with a hair section that is
2" wide and no more than 1/2" thick. Open the
barrel and place a hair section between the two
hot plates close to your scalp. Trap hair between
plates by firmly squeezing the handles together.
While maintaining the tension, slowly pull the
unit down along the hair section toward end
of hair. At the end of the hair section, release
the pressure on the handle and allow the hair
section to slide out. Continue this process on
additional sections of hair until you achieve the
hair style you desire.
Some experience is necessary when first
using this crimping iron. After a few uses, you
will learn the ideal way to crimp and style
your hair easily.
TO WAVE HAIR
For flowing waves, use curling iron. Separate a
wider section of hair than you normally do for
curling, and roll it as you usually do. For best
results, hair should be at least 6-8" long.
FOR TOUSLED HAIR
Create soft, tousled waves by curling each
hair section in a random direction. Then, turn
head upside down, shake, and gently scrunch
hair with fingers. Bring head back to position
and repeat for fullest volume.
WIDE WAVES
Pick up a section of hair and place the curl-
ing iron under it
close to the scalp,
making
half a turn downward. Remove the curling
iron. Working with the same hair section, start
where you left off and place the curling iron
on top of the hair, curling it up half a turn.
Proceed down the same hair section, alternat-
ing the curl upward and downward. Repeat
procedure with remaining sections of hair. For
best results, hair should be about 6-8" long.
