Hair Designer™ Airstyle
The Hair Designer™ Airstyle from VS Sassoon is a revolutionary straightener-styler with patented technology
that straightens and volumises hair as it dries. When used correctly, it gives the hair a smooth finish adding
shine and volume for stunning professional salon results at home.
1. All in one Control
This unique straightening and styling head features a patented all in one control with five functions in one.
1. Comb lifts hair from the root
2. Row of ceramic plates straighten hair
3. Hot air blows through the ceramic smoothing
plate to add volume and shine
4. Row of ceramic plates for an extra straight
finish
5. Comb smoothes the hair

2. Tension Control System™
The Tension Control System™ is a patented 4 position dial control that adapts the internal tension to suit
every type of curl: no more tugging and pulling of hair during laborious blow-drying. The internal tension is
weakest on position 1 and very strong on position 4.
Position 1 - Straight/Wavy Hair (this is the weakest setting)
Position 2 - Curly Hair (this is a stronger setting than position 1)
Position 3 - Very Curly Hair (this is an even stronger setting)
Position 4 - Frizzy Hair (this is the strongest setting and can be used
on frizzy hair and hard to style hair)
To adjust the Tension Control System™, turn the dial clockwise until the control clicks into place. Ensure
that the number corresponding to your hair type is visible when looking over the top of the product (number
should be positioned so it is in line with the ceramic smoothing plate).
3. Internal Ionic Generator
The Hair Designer™ Airstyle features an advanced internal ionic generator. This generator
conditions hair by emitting negative ions to reduce static, by leaving hair silky and shiny with
reduced frizz. (To find out further detail about how this feature works, please refer to ‘How does
the ionic feature work?’).
4. 2 temperature settings plus cool setting
There are 2 heat/speed settings, plus the cool setting. The low heat/speed setting (position 1) combines an
ideal airflow and temperature for shaping finer, damaged and weakened hair.
The airflow on Position 1 is ideal for dry hair.
The high heat/speed setting combines a stronger airflow and higher temperature for curly to frizzy hair.
The airflow on Position 2 is ideal for damp hair.
Use the cool setting on warm hair to rapidly cool and set the style in place for a longer lasting effect.
The shot of cool air is ideal after styling the hair.

5. Ergonomic handle
The handle on your Hair Designer™ Airstyle is small, guaranteeing easy manageability and control.
6. Rear filter (Cleaning and Maintenance)
The rear filter is situated at the base of the product, near the power cord.
To help maintain optimum performance and prevent overheating, the rear filter should be cleaned on a regular
basis.
1. Ensure that the appliance is switched off, unplugged from the power outlet and has cooled down.
2. Holding the handle of the appliance firmly pull the rear filter down.
3. Take a soft brush and clean any hair, lint or other debris that may have built up in the filter.
4. Replace the rear filter by pushing back into position.
7. Swivel cord
The swivel power cord on your Hair Designer™ Airstyle makes the product even easier to handle and
maneuver.
How does the Ionic feature work?
Ionic Conditioning Technology™
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 each other apart, resulting in a rough
hair surface where the hairs cannot lie smoothly against each other. Consequently, hair may have a dull
appearance. High levels of static charge cause hair to become ‘flyaway’ and difficult to style. The internal
ionic generator emits a stream of negative ions which act to neutralize the static charge (positive ions), leaving
hair silky and shiny with reduced frizz.
What is Ceramic Technology?
Hair damage is minimized, as the ceramic heat delivers even heat distribution from the styling appliance,
reducing harmful and damaging hotspots. Ceramic heat is a gentle, faster styling tool that retains heat longer
vs non-ceramic heat.

2. Straighten, Shine and Volume
The Hair Designer™ Airstyle is the ideal styling tool for straightening and creating volume with maximum
shine.
Straightening with volume
• To reduce the volume of thick or voluminous hair, place the head of the Airstyle
on top of the section of hair and slide slowly down the section to the bottom.
• To add body to fine or flat hair, place the head of the Airstyle underneath the
section of hair; it will straighten and create volume while lifting the roots and
adding body.
• Repeat if necessary and finish with the cool setting on the section to perfect
the hold.
How to use your Hair Designer™ Airstyle and styling tips
1. Prepare your hair
a. Wash and untangle your hair carefully using a large toothed comb
• Expert’s advice – always untangle your damp hair at the tips and slowly work up your hair towards your scalp (gently
untangling your hair prevents split ends from forming).
b. Towel dry or pre-dry your hair. (Your Airstyle can be used on wet/damp hair or dry hair – for best results
use your Airstyle when hair is damp).
c. Select the Tension control that best suits your hair type
• Expert’s advice – in order to familiarize yourself with the Airstyle, it is suggested that you use
the Tension on control 1 (the weakest tension), until you’ve found the setting that best suits
your hair type.
d. Work in steps
1. Clip the top layer of hair up using one or more clips and start with the hair underneath and at the nape of
your neck.
2. Continue with the hair at the back of your head and then the hair on the sides.
3. Finish by using the cool setting.
• Expert’s advice – for best styling results, while maintaining tension, slowly pull the Airstyle down along the hair section,
towards the ends of the hair. It is very important to hold the hair section firmly taut when using the product (as
you would do with a straightener). At the end of the hair section, release the pressure and allow the hair section to
slide out. Repeat process as necessary until the desired effect is achieved. (It may be necessary to repeat this process
on certain areas, depending on the texture and thickness of your hair).
• These are recommendations only, practice makes perfect!

Creating volume at the roots
• Take up a section of hair of about 3cm wide and place the head of the Airstyle as
close as possible to the roots, under the section. Ensure that the combs go through
your hair completely.
• Rotate the Hair Designer™ Airstyle approximately 45° while sliding it toward the
ends. This rotating movement will add maximum volume to your roots.
• Repeat if necessary and finish with the cool setting.
Turning the ends under (this is also suitable for styling fringes)
• Take up a section of hair of about 3cm wide and place the head of the Airstyle
as close as possible to the roots, under the section of hair.
• Turning the handle under slightly, slide the unit slowly over the tips, using your
free hand if necessary to guide the rounding of the section.
• Hold in place for 5 seconds: the effect of the ceramic coated straightening
plates is then maximized.
• Repeat if necessary and finished with the cool setting.
Turning the ends out
• Take up a section of hair of about 3cm wide and place the head of the Airstyle as
close as possible to the roots, on top of the section of hair.
• Turning the handle out slightly, slide the unit slowly over the tips, using your free
hand if necessary to guide the rounding of the section.
• Hold in place for 5 seconds: the effect of the ceramic coated straightening plates
is then maximized.
• Repeat if necessary and finish with the cool setting.
Maintaining shape
• Your Hair Designer™ Airstyle is also perfect for daily ‘comb through’: you feel like you have to tame a
rebellious section of hair, or your style lacks bounce… in minutes you will give your hair extra shine and
body.
