Hair Types
The way you use your InStyler depends on what type of hair you have. You’ll get
the most out of your InStyler if you use the techniques best suited to your hair type.
The four main types of hair are:
1.
Fine
- Set the InStyler at Low to Medium heat setting. With fine hair, you
should only need 1 to 2 passes with the InStyler to achieve your desired
results.
2.
Medium or Normal
- Set your InStyler to the Medium to High heat setting.
You should only need 1 to 2 passes with the InStyler to achieve your desired
results.
3.
Thick or Coarse
- Set your InStyler at the highest heat setting and style as
desired. With coarse hair, 2 to 3 passes with the InStyler should be enough
to set your style.
4.
Wet Hair (towel dry)
- For wet hair, use the appropriate heat setting to dry
while styling.
Don’t rush!
Remember to
Take your time and move slowly through the hair.
NOTE: For color treated hair, we also recommend a lightweight shampoo and a
light leave-in conditioner.
•
Volumizing products can be used to hold the style.
•
To hold your style, end with a professional light finishing spray.
•
Although the InStyler uses less heat than other hair appliances,
we recommend using thermal protectant products before use.
The Basics -
Preparation for all hair types.
•
Before using your InStyler, you should always start with
clean hair.
•
You should also
detangle
first with a brush, and all sections should be
combed out for optimal results and shine.
•
Sections of hair to be styled should be no wider than the length of the InStyler
barrel. We recommend starting with
2.5cm to 7.5cm sections at a time
for
whichever style you want to achieve.
•
Style the under layers of your hair first.
After under layers are completed,
style your top layers.
•
You may use any
salon quality
styling product with your InStyler, however we
do not recommend the use of any oil-based products with your InStyler.
•
For better hold, you can use your favorite light styling spray on each section of
hair before using your InStyler.
•
Go Slowly!
The most important lesson is to glide the InStyler
slowly.
Don’t
worry if you see “steam” coming off of your hair when using your InStyler. This
is not the result of any damage to the hair, it is simply excess moisture that is
evaporating.
