SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This curling appliance is intended for
household use. Use on Alternating Current
(50/60 hertz) only. This appliance has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in
a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
DUAL VOLTAGE
This hot brush has dual voltage. Use an
adapter plug with a configuration appropriate
to the outlet you are using. The hot brush will
automatically adjust to the proper voltage.
GETTING STARTED
The hot brush’s 20 temperature settings
and Instant Heat technology provide styling
versatility for all hair types. If you have fine
hair, a low temperature will provide the best
results. If you have thick, wavy or hard-to-
curl hair, keep the heat setting on high. You
can vary the temperature of the brush
according to your particular need!
SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut
that’s well maintained. Always treat hair
well with superior quality shampoos,
conditioners, and finishing products.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the hot brush cord into a standard
household electrical outlet (120/240V).
Never leave your hot brush on and
unattended. However, should you fail to
turn it off, it will shut itself off automatically
in approximately 70 minutes.
2. Use of the hot brush is very easy to
master. Roll one section of hair at a time
around the hot brush from the bottom up.
To
avoid tangling, never roll the hair around
the hot brush more than two times.
When
hair is warm (not hot) to the touch, the curl
is set. For hair that is harder to curl, leave the
hot brush in place a little longer. A hot brush
generally gives a lighter curl than a curling
iron - for very hard to curl hair, try switching
to your curling iron.
3. The hot brush can be used for quick touch-
ups. After heating the hot brush, simply
brush the hair back to its original style. To
change the style, mist the hair lightly with
water before using the hot brush. No
combing is necessary!
TO STRAIGHTEN
To relax natural waves, pull small section
taut, then pass brush over hair from roots
to ends. Repeat procedure until natural
waves are relaxed.
TO WAVE
For flowing waves, separate a wider section
of hair than you normally do for curling, and
roll it as you usually do. For best results, hair
should be at least 6-8 inches long.
ON BLUNT CUTS
Use hot brush on blunt cuts to eliminate kinks or
unwanted flips by just turning the hair under.
