iron is ready for use after afew moments.
Procedure for ironing hair
■ Wash your hair thoroughly, dry it completely and brush through thoroughly so that
it is smooth and without knots.
■ Separate this prepared hair using clips into equally wide strands (about 5 cm wide).
■ Start to iron the back part of the head at the lower strands of hair – at the root place
the strand of hair between the plates and gently press the handle of the iron. With
asliding motion pull the iron all the way to the ends of the hair.
■ Repeat the procedure for the same strand of hair until you achieve the desired
appearance.
■ Continue in the same way with the remaining strands of hair (first on the front part
of the head and ending at the sides).
■ Before the final combing, allow the hair to fully cool down.
