Heat Settings
Take extra care when using a professional
styler.To prevent hair damage,make sure
to use the correct temperature setting for
your hair type.
Straightening Your Hair
1. Gently towel dry hair to remove excess
water. Avoid rubbing hair with a towel,
as this creates split ends and frizziness.
Detangle hair with a wide-toothed comb.
2. Plug the straightener into an electrical
outlet.
Press and hold theON/OFFbutton
until the unit turns on and the LCD lights up.
3. The straightener will initially heat to
setting 15. Adjust the temperature
using the +/- buttons.The bars on the
LCD will flash while the unit heats up,
then glow steadily when it has reached
the selected temperature.The styler will
beep three times when it is ready for use.
4. Divide hair into manageable sections
and clip the upper layers on top of your
head and out of the way. Work with
underneath layers first.
5. Test the styler on a small section of hair,
then adjust the temperature up or down
before styling the rest of your hair.
NOTE:
If you find that you need a higher
setting while straightening your hair,
simply adjust the temperature by
pressing the "+" button. The unit
will beep when it reaches the new
temperature.
While straightening your hair,if you
find that you need a lower setting,
adjust the temperature by pressing
the "-" button. Because the unit
is already hot,it may take a few
minutes to cool off.It will beep when
it cools to the lower temperature.
6. Take a small section of hair and comb
through it with a fine-toothed comb.
Pull hair down and away from your
scalp,and hold it taut.
7. Hold the straightener with the LCD
and steam vents facing away from
your scalp. Starting at the roots, clamp
hair firmly between the plates and run
the styler down the entire hair strand,
from root to tip,in one smooth stroke.
Do not hold it in one area for a long
period of time or damage to hair may
occur.
8. To speed up drying at the roots,you
may wish to run the styler over the first
few inches of hair nearest the root sev-
eral times. Repeatedly run the unit
smoothly down the entire strand until
hair is fully dried. (NOTE: The unit
may make a steaming/hissing noise
when used on damp hair. This is
okay! The unique design of this
styler will channel the moisture away
from hair and out the steam vents.)
9. Repeat with all sections of your hair,
working with the underneath layers
first,then the top and sides,until hair
is fully dried.
10. When you are finished styling,press
and hold theON/OFF button to turn the
unit off,unplug it,and allow it to cool
before storing.
