using the appliance
Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with
care. As with all straighteners that reach salon-high temperatures, do not
use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair.
If you use the straightener incorrectly or at a wrong temperature setting,
you could overheat your hair or even burn it. Always make sure you
select a temperature setting that is suitable for your hair type.
Note: Make sure your hair is completely dry before you straighten it.
