future reference.
DANGER:
• Do not use this appliance in or near bathtubs, showers,
basins or other vessels containing water - keep the

the proximity of water hazards are present even when the appliance
is switched o.
• Do not immerse the appliance into water or other liquids.
• If this appliance falls into water, unplug it immediately - DO NOT
REACH INTO THE WATER.
• This appliance is a burn hazard. Keep appliance out of reach from
young children particularly during use & cool down.

WARNING: Before & During Use
• Before using, always ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance
is the same as your local power voltage.
• If the appliance is designed to be connected to a detachable power
supply (otherwise known as a charger or adaptor), the appliance
must only be used with the power supply it was sold with.

• Do not place the appliance on any heat sensitive surfaces or near
flammable materials or objects.
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
• Never block the air openings of the appliance or place on a soft
surface such as a bed or couch where the air openings may be
blocked - keep the air openings free of lint & other debris.
• Do not cover this appliance with anything when it is switched on
or hot.
• To avoid electric shock, do not drop or insert any object into an
opening in this appliance.
• This is a high heat appliance. Care must be taken to avoid the hot
surfaces of the appliance coming into direct contact with the skin, in
particular the eyes, ears, face & neck.
• Do not use extension cord with this appliance.
• We recommend using distilled water as this will help protect the
appliance best & lessen the chance of clogging the inside mechanism
that allows the steam to flow through.
• While emitting steam, this appliance may cause burns if it is used too
close to the skin, scalp or eyes, or if it is used incorrectly.
• To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from the steam
vents, test this appliance before each use by holding it away from
the body & closing the plates to operate the steam function.
• Only use the steam function when this appliance is in use on hair. Do
not continuously close & open the straightening plates as excessive
pumping may cause hot water to be emitted.
WARNING: Storage & Maintenance
Always unplug the appliance immediately after use & before
cleaning or maintenance.
Do not wrap the power cord tightly around the appliance when
storing. This causes undue strain on the power cord & protective
guard. Over time, this will damage the power cord resulting in an
unsafe condition to the user.

CONDITIONING STEAM MIST
Conditioning steam mist from the water reservoir infuses hair
with moisture, for smoother, softer & shinier results. Ideal for
normal to thick hair types.
To use the straightener with steam:
1. Remove the water reservoir located at the top of the
straightener by pressing the RELEASE switch with your thumb
& removing the water reservoir with the other hand.
2. Lift the black rubber plug & fill with distilled water (We
recommend using distilled water as this will help protect the
appliance best & lessen the chance of clogging the inside
mechanism that allows the steam to flow through). The
straightener water reservoir holds 3.5ml of water.
3. Replace the black rubber plug & put the reservoir back onto
the top of straightener until it clicks into place. Check that the
reservoir is properly positioned & secured in place.
4. The Steam n’ Straight is now ready to use.
ALWAYS remove excess water from the straightener water
reservoir after use, since leaving unused water in the reservoirs
can cause clogging over
time.
NB - NEVER add any other liquid aside from distilled water to
the water reservoirs.

While emitting steam, this appliance may cause burns if it is used
too close to the skin, scalp or eyes, or if it is used incorrectly. To

4. Divide your hair into 4 sections (2 back & 2 front).
5. Starting with the back sections at the nape of the neck, take
a horizontal section no wider than the plate of the straightener
& clamp the plates over the section then glide down slowly &
evenly.
6. Repeat this through all sections.
7. During styling you may need to refill the water reservoir - take
care as the plates & housing might be hot.

REMOVABLE DETANGLING COMB
The Steam n’ Straight includes a detangling
comb that helps to provide more uniform
results & complete 3D straightening, as it
helps to sections & detangles as you style. The
comb is useful for helping to straighten hard-
to-style, coarse & afro-textured hair types as it helps to create more
tension as you straighten. The comb is easily removable - simply
slide it along bottom plate to the left to fully remove.

HOW TO STYLE WITH
THE
STEAM N’ STRAIGHT
STRAIGHT
Start with clean & dry, thoroughly combed through hair. Apply a heat
spray for extra protection & longer lasting results. Straighten your
hair in sections ensuring you go over each section once to get that
gorgeous, silky finish. If you are needing to go over the section more
than once, creating thinner sections will help create straight hair in
the first glide.
VOLUME
Create volume by making a curved movement with your wrist as you
glide the straightener down the hair section.
EXPERT TIP
Set your style with a spritz of light hold hair spray, for extra hold if
needed.
