Basic Drying Techniques

■ 

Gently towel dry hair to remove excess 

water. Avoid rubbing hair with towel – 

this creates split ends and frizziness. 

Detangle hair with a wide-toothed comb. 

■ 

Be sure dryer is turned off. Plug dryer 

into an electrical outlet.

■ 

Set dryer to the high setting. Remove 

some of the additional moisture from 

your hair by briskly blow drying it all 

over, using your fingers to “comb” 

through hair.  

■ 

When hair is almost dry, lower the heat 

and speed setting and begin to style.

■ 

Divide hair into manageable sections. 

Begin at the nape of your neck and 

brush hair, following the movement  

of the brush with the dryer. Continue 

working your way up your scalp, then 

to the sides and the front, drying small 

sections at a time.

■ 

When finished unplug the unit. 

Settings

Low– Low Heat, Low Speed 

Med– Med Heat, Low Speed 

High– High Heat, High Speed

Cool Shot:

The Cool Shot sets the style by blowing a 

cool stream of air. Press and hold cool shot 

button to set style. Release button to return 

to warm air flow.

For straight, smooth hair

Use a large, round brush or paddle brush 

to brush hair from underneath. Pull hair 

down until the hair is fully extended and 

taut. Run the dryer with concentrator  

slowly down the length of the hair several 

times until dry. Repeat with all sections of 

hair until it is completely dried. 

For curly hair

Use dryer on a low heat and speed setting 

and move it quickly about your head. As 

you dry your hair, scrunch it with your 

favorite styling product or twirl strands of 

hair around your fingers to add definition.

How to Use

CAUTION:

suitable for use in bath or shower.

Hair Care Tips

■ 

Keep the dryer about 8 inches away 

from your head to avoid burning scalp or 

damaging hair.

■ 

Always keep the dryer pointed down 

the hair shaft to smooth the cuticle and 

create a silky, shiny style.

■ 

To help prevent heat damage and 

add shine, spritz damp hair with heat 

protection spray before blow drying.  

■ 

To create a style with lots of body, apply 

volumizing mousse to towel-dried hair. 

Distribute it evenly from roots to ends, 

then blow dry as usual. Hair will be soft, 

shiny and full of volume.
