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.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into a standard
household electrical outlet (120V). When the
red Ready dot on the spoon of the iron turns
white, proper styling temperature has been
reached.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each
section before winding. Pressing the automatic
curl release, place curling iron midway up the
hair section, then spread hair evenly between
spoon and barrel. Let go of the 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 8-12 seconds. 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. Some experimenting is necessary when
first using the curling iron, or when changing
to a different hair style.
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 curling
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, alternating the
curl upward and downward. Repeat proce-
dure with remaining sections of hair. For best
results, hair should be about 6-8 inches long.
HOT BRUSH BASICS
1. Plug the hot brush cord into a standard
household electrical outlet (120V). When the
red Ready dot turns white, proper styling
temperature has been reached.
2. Use of the hot brush is very easy to master.
Roll one section of hair at a time around the hot
brush from the bottom up. To avoid tangling,
never roll the hair around the hot 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 brush in place a
little longer. A hot brush generally gives a lighter
curl than a curling iron – for very hard to curl
hair, try switching to your curling iron.
3. The hot brush can be used for quick touch-
ups without shampooing. After heating the
hot brush, simply brush the hair back to its
original style.
To change the style, mist the hair lightly with
water before using the hot brush. No combing
is necessary!
