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 a heat
protection spray before blow drying.
Basic Drying Techniques
1.
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.
2.
Be sure dryer is turned off. Plug dryer
into an electrical outlet.
3.
Set dryer ion switch to negative (-)
drying ion position. Turn the dryer on
and set it to a high heat and speed.
Remove some of the additional moisture
form your hair by briskly blowing it all
over, using your fingers to “comb”
through hair.
4.
When hair is almost dry, lower the heat
and speed to the desired settings and
begin to style.
5.
Set ion switch to positive (+) styling ion
position. 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 to your scalp, then
to the sides and the front, drying small
sections at a time.
6.
Once your desired style is achieved, push
the Cool Shot button to set the style with
a cool flow of air.
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:
With the dryer turned off, attach the
concentrator to the end of the nozzle. Brush
hair from underneath using a large, round
brush or paddle brush. Pull hair down until
the hair is fully extended and taut. Run the
dryer slowly down the length of the hair
several times until dry. Repeat with all
sections of hair until it is completely dried.
Lock in the style with the Cool Shot.
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.
When finished drying, lock in the style with
the Cool Shot.
■
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.
■
For a super smooth, salon-like blow dry,
finish by running a straightening iron
over dried hair.
■
For a quick touch-up between sham-
poos, mist hair to dampen it, then style
with dryer.
