Preparing for use
Washing your hair
Everybody wants shiny and beautiful hair. A good hair-washing routine can
help to achieve this.
1 Wet your hair thoroughly for 30-60 seconds.
2 Pour some shampoo into the palm of your hand. Spread it between
your hands and distribute it evenly through the hair.
3 Gently massage your hair and scalp. Do not rough up the hair or
pull up long hair onto the scalp, as this may cause tangles.
4 Massageyourscalpwithyourngertips.Thisstimulatesblood
circulation and is gentler to the hair cuticles.
5 Rinse your hair thoroughly, as poor rinsing can result in dull hair.
Finish with a cold rinse for extra shine.
Drying your hair
To get super-smooth results, it is essential to prepare your hair for
straightening. Dry your hair properly with a hairdryer to ensure a
professional, smooth nish.
1 After washing, squeeze excess water out of the hair with your
hands and then towel-dry the hair. Use a comb to disentangle the
hair gently from the roots to the tips.
2 Divide the hair into sections using clips. Start at the back.
3 Todryeachsection,pullastraighteningbrushdownthehairlength.
Follow the brush with the hairdryer, with its nozzle pointing
towards the hair ends.
4 Whenyouhavenisheddryingeachsection,setthehairdryerto
thecoolsettingforanalcoolshot.Thisclosesthecuticlesand
adds shine to the hair.

Tip: Philips Salon Pro hairdryers have a lower drying temperature and a
stronger airow than regular dryers. Thanks to this combination, they dry just
as quickly as regular hairdryers but in a gentler way.
Using the appliance
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in.
Always put the appliance on a heat-resistant surface when it is heating
up and when it is hot.
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’.
The power-on light goes on.
3 Let the appliance heat up.
The plates heat up rapidly and are ready for use within 90 seconds.
4 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and
smooth. (Fig. 2)
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approx.3-4cmwide.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. 3).
