THE TITANIUM EASY-GLIDE STYLER
The Unbound™styler has a titanium easy-glide coated surface. This is the newest technology.
It not only makes it simpler to clean off styling product residue, etc., after each use, but you’ll find that
hair slips right through the barrel after its curled. The titanium-coated surface also helps smooth down
flyaways and frizzies for added shine.
The styler evenly distributes heat so that the style you create has a salon-perfect, silky smooth,
shiny finish.
Titanium technology makes styling hair easier, and gives you professional results.
TO CURL HAIR
Hair should be clean and completely dry before using the curling iron. For best results, use a light styling
product before blow-drying hair.
1. Start curling with a hair section that is 1 inch wide and no more than ½ inch thick.
2. Open the spoon and place a hair section on the barrel, rolling it up close to the scalp.
3. At the end of hair section, release the pressure on the handle and allow the hair section to slide out.
4. Repeat process on additional sections of hair until you achieve the hairstyle you desire. It may be
necessary to repeat process on certain areas, depending on the texture of your hair.
Some experience is necessary when learning to use this curling iron. After using the iron several times,
you will learn the ideal way to curl and style your hair.

STYLE TIPS
To create ribbon
curls, wrap wide
sections of hair
far apart.
To create bouncy
curls, wrap wide
sections of hair
close together.
To create textured
waves, wrap small
sections of hair far
apart.
TIPS
Before using, fully charge the product to get the best performance.
Before preparing to store your styler for a long time, fully charge it. Always be sure to charge it
