Styling with the retractable bristle brush
We advise you to perform a curl test to determine how long you have to
hold the brush in your hair to achieve a good result. Start with 8 to 10
seconds.You may have to hold the brush in your hair longer for tighter
curls. Less tight curls require less than 8 seconds.
1 Snap the retractable bristle brush onto the appliance.
See chapter ‘Preparing for use’.
2 Put the plug in the wall socket.
3 Take a lock of hair and wind it round the brush. Make sure you
wind the end of the lock in the required direction.
Do not wind too much hair round the brush at a time.
The thinner the lock of hair, the tighter the curl.
Do not wind a lock of hair more than twice round the brush.
Make sure the lock of hair is in contact with the barrel of the brush.
Note:To give your hair optimum lift and volume, wind the hair at right angles
to the scalp.
4 Switch on the appliance by selecting the preferred setting (Fig. 4).
