Styling and drying tips
Here is one style you can create easily and gently
with the Philips Salon Classic hairdryer.As you
become more familiar with the appliance, you will
discover many other ways to create great styles.
Just use your imagination!
1After washing and conditioning your hair
as usual, start drying it by dabbing the wet
hair with a towel, then comb it through
carefully.
2Place the diffuser in your hair so that the
tips of the air pins touch your scalp. By
making circular movements with the
ENGLISH8

diffuser, the hair will be lifted towards the
base of the diffuser and the air flowing
from the air pins will dry the hair from the
root upwards.This will add more volume
to your hair. Continue drying until your
hair is dry at the roots.
C3Select a lower airflow speed setting and
continue drying until your hair is
completely dry. Use a comb or brush to
style your hair in the desired way while
drying.
C4To create volume at the hair ends, hold the
diffuser in horizontal position and place
some locks of hair on the base of the
diffuser between the air pins and leave
them there for a few moments.The gentle
airflow will prevent your curls or waves
from being blown out of style while drying.
C5Finish off with a cool shot to fix your style.
Replacement
◗If the mains cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by Philips, a service centre
authorised by Philips or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
◗Always return the appliance to a service
centre authorised by Philips for examination
or repair. Repair by unqualified people could
cause an extremely hazardous situation for
the user.
