Attachments
• Shape Style Brush
The Shape Style Brush is suitable for straight and
wavy hair of any length, especially for medium to
long hair. Its special design with vented hollow
center ensures that the warm air is directed
directly into your hairdo. The bobble-tipped pins
provide good grip on the hair. The heated metal
plate on the back and front of the brush ensures
optimum styling and “volume”. For a longer lasting
result you can apply some mousse before styling
your hair.
Volume
- Insert the Shape Style Brush into the hair. Brush
against the direction of the hair growth, touching
the scalp with the brush. Then rotate the
attachment away from the head (fig. 4). The hair
will be lifted and fall lightly back onto the head. In
this manner you add maximum volume and body
to the hair.
• If the hair is still damp you can hold the Shape
Style Brush still for a moment, before you rotate
it away from the head to remove it.
• You can also add volume to long hair by holding
your head down and brushing the hair with the
Volume & Shape in this position.
Shaping and Styling
Making waves in medium to long hair
- Switch on the appliance. Take the ends of the
hair (fig. 5) and wind the brush around the tress
in the desired direction (fig. 6). The resulting
shape of the wave depends on the thickness of
the lock.
- As soon as the hair is warm to the touch, remove
the hot air brush from the hair by rotating it away
from the head.
- Leave the curls or waves to cool down, before
finishing by combing, brushing or fingercombing
the hair into its final style (fig. 7).
• Large Vent Brush
Making curls in short to medium hair
- Divide the hair (fig. 8) into tresses, using a comb.
Do not take too much hair in one tress.
- Switch on the appliance. Wind the hair around
the brush in the desired direction (fig. 9). When
using the large vent brush, make sure it does not
get tangled in the hair. Therefore, do not rotate it
in the hair more than 1,5 turn.
Ensure that the hair is wound up so that it is at
right angles to the scalp (fig. 10). This will give
your hair optimum lift and volume.
As soon as the hair is warm to the touch, remove
the brush from the hair.
Making waves in long hair
- Switch on the appliance. Take the ends of the
hair (fig. 11) and wind them around the brush in
the desired direction (fig. 12). The resulting
shape of the wave depends on the thickness of
the lock.
- As soon as the hair is warm to the touch,
carefully remove the hot air brush from the hair.
- Leave the curls or waves to cool down, before
finishing by combing, brushing or fingercombing
the hair into its final style (fig. 13).
To remove the brush from the hair
• Large Vent Brush
- Carefully rotate the styler in the opposite
direction, just far enough to release the hair
without spoiling the curl. Be careful not to pick up
underlying hairs because this could cause the
brush to get stuck in hair.
• Large Oval Cushion Brush
- This brush is especially suitable for longer hair
for grooming and shaping. The bobble-tipped
bristles protect the hair; they won’t pull it, won’t
scratch your scapula and they can be used to
very gentle brush the tangles out while blowing
warm air through the hair to smoothen it. The
brush will glide through your (wet) hair,
preventing tugging and helping to remove knots.
Root lift
- To create root lift use the Cushion brush; insert
the pins in your hair until it touches your scapula.
- Starting from the front, brush backwards and
forwards across the centre parting (fig. 14).
Soft flowing hair
- To groom the hair and have a straight finish, lift
the hair at the roots on the sides of your head,
and follow down the hair lengths with the styler
(fig. 15). This technique will tame stray ends and
help promote shine and softness (fig. 16).
