Using the appliance
Straightening your hair
Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with
care. As with all straighteners that reach salon high temperatures, do not
use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair.
If you use the straightener incorrectly, you could overheat your hair or
even burn it.Always follow the steps below:
1 Put the plug in the wall socket.
2 Set the on/off switch to ‘on’ (Fig. 3).
The power-on light goes on.
3 Let the appliance heat up for at least 60 seconds.
4 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and
smooth. (Fig. 4)
Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not put too much hair in
one section.
Note: It is better to section off the crown area and to straighten the hair
underneath rst. Then straighten the top area.
5 Take a section that is not wider than 5cm. Place it between the
straightening plates and press the handles of the appliance rmly
together.
6 Slide the straightener down the length of the hair in a few seconds,
from root to hair end, without stopping to prevent
overheating (Fig. 5).
7 Repeat this process after 20 seconds until you have achieved the
desired look.
ENGLISH8

Tip: If you want to create icks straighten your hair and when you get to the
ends, turn the straightener in a half-circle inward (or outward). Hold the
straightener for a 2 to 3 seconds and release.
8 Let your hair cool down. Do not comb or brush it before it has
cooled down, as this would ruin the hairstyle you have just created.
