How to use your Tourmaline Infusion 2000 AC
This hairdryer features the latest in heat-balancing
Tourmaline, Ceramic and Ionic Technology,
™leaving your hair
with a frizz-free, conditioned shine.
• Always towel-dry your hair before using the dryer.
• Ensure that the switch is set to the Off setting before
plugging into a suitable power outlet.
• There are 4 heat/speed settings, plus the cool shot button.
Use the high heat and speed settings for initial drying. Use
the low heat and speed settings as the hair begins to dry,
and for styling and scrunch drying.
• Use the cool shot button on warm hair to rapidly cool the
hair and set the style in place for a longer-lasting effect.
Electronic Heat Indicators
When any of the following heat settings are selected, the
corresponding electronic heat indicators will illuminate:
FPO
The Attachments:
Concentrator Nozzle
Use the slimline concentrator nozzle for
directing airflow just where you want it, to
ease styling and straightening. For additional
control, use one of the lower settings and point
the airflow along the surface of the hair to
be dried.
CAUTION: Take care not to direct the airflow directly onto
the skin (e.g. scalp, neck, ears, face, etc.) as hot air from
hairdryers can, particularly if held too close, cause discomfort
or even burns.
Finger Diffuser
Use the diffuser’s soft fingers, which gently
grip hair, to build life, volume and curls in short
to medium-length hair, or ‘scrunch’ with your
hands and follow with diffuser. Shampoo and
towel-dry your hair. Hang your head forward
and aim the diffuser upwards so that the warm
air circulates freely through your hair. When hair is dry, gently
toss your head back for a stunning casual look.
What is Tourmaline-Ceramic Technology™?
Tourmaline-Ceramic Technology™delivers even heat without
hot spots. Tourmaline is a semiprecious crystal which is a
natural source of negative ions and far-infrared (FIR) rays.
The production of negative ions from tourmaline eliminates
static in the hair, and far-infrared rays assist in the deep
penetration of heat thus preventing hair damage.
When in contact with wet hair, Tourmaline-Ceramic
Technology™works to ionise and alkalise moisture, and
provides antibacterial and deodorant qualities.
How does the ionic feature work?
Many aspects of modern living, including air conditioning,
contact with man-made fibres and air pollution, add to the
buildup of static electricity in the hair. Even brushing and
towel-drying the hair can increase these levels. This static
charge causes the scales, or cuticle, of the hair, to push hair
strands apart, resulting in a rough hair surface. Consequently,
hair may have a dull appearance. High levels of static charge
cause hair to become ‘flyaway’ and difficult to style. The
internal ion generator emits a stream of negative ions that act
to neutralize the static charge.
