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 1/2" and 5/8" ceramic dual bar-
rel attachment, a 3/4" ceramic curling iron,
and ceramic convertible straightener/crimper
plates – all of these different styling options
in one tool.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into any house-
hold outlet (120V). Turn the unit on. The LED
will be red when the unit is on. 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. Hold in place for 8-12 seconds, depend-
ing 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.
USING THE DUAL BARREL ATTACHMENT
This unique combination of heated barrels
allows you to create beautiful oval and ribbon
ringlets.
FOR OVAL CURLS, place smooth hair strand
on spoon clip and roll over both barrels. Hold in
place for 8-12 seconds.
TO CREATE RIBBON RINGLETS, take smooth
strand of hair and weave through barrels
simulating a figure eight. Use caution as bar-
rels are very hot.
HOW TO CHANGE STYLING HEADS:
Changing styling heads is easy.
1. Make sure appliance is unplugged and cool
before changing attachments.
2. Slide down locking switch at top of handle
to release attachments.
Caution: For use with dual barrel styling tool,
make sure the 5/8" barrel with the spoon
clip is inserted into the upper handle (the one
with colorful graphics) and locked into place.
Lock the 1/2" barrel into the lower housing.
If this attachment is not locked into the lower
handle, the unit will not operate properly.
3. Hold attachments by cool tips to remove.
4. To attach the convertible straightening/
crimping plates to the power handle, simply
insert plates into the handle and push to lock
into place.
5. To convert from straight plates to crimper
plates, or vice versa, hold the iron tightly
closed. Push the rectangular button that pro-
trudes from the base of the plate to convert
the plates.
6. To remove plates, slide the locking switches
down and pull plates out of power handle.
TO STRAIGHTEN HAIR
To straighten hair, use straightener styling
plates. Start with a hair section that is 2" wide
and no more than 1/2" thick. Open the handle
and place a hair section between the two hot
plates close to your scalp. Trap hair between
plates by firmly squeezing the handles togeth-
er. 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.
