HOW TO USE YOUR CURLING TONG
WARNING! This appliance reaches up to 210°C, please take care to avoid the hot barrel
coming in to direct contact with the skin, in particular the ears, eyes, face and neck.
CAUTION! Do not place the appliance on any heat sensitive surface whilst in operation.
Use the heat mat provided to protect the work surface whilst styling your hair.
•Ensure your hair is completely dry and combed through before use.
•Press the button marked ‘I/0’ to switch the styler on. The temperature display panel
will begin to flash 160°C.
•The styler will automatically adjust to the 160°C temperature setting each time it is
switched on and this will be displayed on the LCD screen.
IMPORTANT! Within 4 seconds of turning the styler on, the temperature setting will
automatically lock. You are able to adjust the temperature setting immediately after
switching on the styler, however if the temperature locks, hold down either the ‘+/-’
buttons for 1-2 seconds to change the temperature.
•The temperature increases in 5°C increments for specific temperature control
(160°C-210°C). NOTE: Always start with a lower temperature setting and increase
gradually if required.
•The temperature on the display will flash while the styler is heating up to the selected
temperature. You may still change the temperature setting at this time.
•When the selected temperature has been reached, the temperature display will stop
flashing.

STYLING ADVICE
•Section dry hair evenly and comb through before styling.
•Press the lever and place the tong midway up the hair section and spread hair evenly
between the lever and the barrel.
•Once hair is in place carefully let go of the lever so the hair is held securely
between the lever and the barrel. Gently slide the tong down to the hair ends.
NOTE: If using this product on someone else, wrap all the hair section around the
barrel before you let go of the lever.
•Wind the hair around the barrel at a slight angle, so the hair wraps around the barrel in
a spiral motion. As you wind the hair around the barrel, ensure the hair is distributed
evenly so the entire section is touching the barrel; try not to overlap the hair.
•Hold in place for 5-8 seconds depending on the texture and length of the hair.
•To remove the tong from the hair, press the lever and pull tong away.
•Allow the curl to cool before styling it further.
•Repeat as necessary through the remaining sections. Use the heat protection mat to
place your styler on between each section to protect surfaces.
•After use, press and hold the ‘I/0’ button for 1-2 seconds to switch your styler off and
unplug.
•Allow to cool completely before storing away. For extra protection, wrap the styler in
the heat protection mat.

HELPFUL HINTS
•Use your curling tong to add volume to the roots.
•Section dry hair evenly and comb through before styling.
•Lift up a section of hair and place the tong underneath the hair close to the root being
careful not to touch the scalp.
•Pull the hair down taught over the barrel for 5-8 seconds depending on hair type.
•Slide the tong out from under the section. Do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
•Repeat as necessary. Use the heat protection mat to place your styler on between each
section to protect surfaces.
•After use, press and hold the ‘I/0’ button for 1-2 seconds to switch your styler off and
unplug.
•Allow to cool completely before storing away. For extra protection, wrap the styler in
the heat protection mat.
AUTO SHUT-OFF
This appliance has an automatic shut off feature for added safety. If the appliance is
switched on for more than 60 minutes continuously, then it will automatically switch off.
If you wish to continue using the appliance after this time, simply press the on/off button
to turn the power on.

LOOKING AFTER YOUR CURLING TONG
•In order for your styler to retain its top performance it is important to make sure there
is no product build up on the barrel. When the styler is completely cool and unplugged,
use a damp cloth over the surface of the barrel to wipe away any styling product.
•Keep the power cord away from the hot barrel at all times.
•Before storing away, always allow the barrel to cool down and place in the heat mat
provided for extra protection.
•To prevent cord damage, do not wrap the cord around the styler – always store the
cord next to it.
