Heat Settings
Your styler features two heat and a cool setting. 
Off = “0” setting on switch 
Low heat = “I” setting on switch . 
High heat = “II” setting on switch 
Cool setting = * setting on switch (note : brush does not rotate on 
this setting)
•  Use the high heat setting for initial drying, and the low heat setting 

as the hair begins to dry and for styling. 

•  Use the cool setting to set the style for longer lasting results after 

drying and styling.

Brush rotation settings
Your styler has a two-way , rotation that can be used when styling 
(heat settings only) .
To make the brush head rotate press the switch marked  << and >> 
on the styler handle. These will make the brush head rotate in a 
clockwise or anticlockwise direction. 
The styler has 2 heat/speed settings plus cool. When the styler is set 
on the high heat setting the brush head will rotate faster. When 
the styler is set on the low heat setting the brush head will rotate 
slower. 
Note: The brush head does not rotate when used on the cool 
setting.
 
The styler can also be used as a fixed head brush for styling. 

Attaching and removing the brush heads
To attach the brush head (50mm or 38mm), line up the guides on 
the handle and the brush head and press the brush head onto the 
handle until you here a click. To remove the brush press on the 
unlocking buttons located on the sides of the unit and gently pull 
the brush head off.

How to use your Big Hair Styler 1000
1.  Remove all packaging and promotional labels before use. 
2.  Remove the protective brush cover from the brush barrel by firmly 

sliding upwards. 

3.  Plug the styler into a power outlet and select either the low or 

high heat settings – Depress the << or >> brush rotation buttons 
to ensure you understand the rotation direction before styling 
your hair .  

4.  Wash and condition your hair as usual.  Comb hair before using 

to detangle. 

5. Using a hair dryer, dry your hair first until it is 80% dry. For added  
  volume, turn your head upside down as you dry.
6.  Once hair is 80% dry, you should start to create your style using 

the Big Hair Styler.

7.  Ensure you section your hair using clips before styling . 
8. Take a hair section to start styling with approx. 2.5cm - 5cm wide  
  and no more than 1cm thick (if you have thick hair make the  
  section around 50mm thick).
9.  Slide the on/off temperature switch to either the low or high heat 

setting. 

10.  Place the styler under the section of hair, close to the roots and 

brush  through  the  section  to  remove  tangles  (without  brush 
rotating). 

11.  For added volume at the root of the hair , hold the brush in place 

at the root (hair section is draped over top of brush) for a few 
seconds.

12.  Move  the  brush  through  the  hair  section  (hair  is  draped  over 

top of brush), towards the ends and as you reach the end of the 
hair section, start to rotate the brush away from your head by 
pressing and holding the appropriate rotation direction switch. 

13.  As you do this it is important to resist the rotation of the brush 

by pulling the brush downwards. The brush should be rotating 
through  the  section  of  your  hair  (without  the  hair  becoming 
wound round the brush head if you are holding the styler with 
the correct tension against the hair) to create a brushing effect 
as it dries and styles the hair. 

IMPORTANT! It may take several attempts to perfect this technique. 
If the brush spins too quickly and hair wraps around the brush head , 
simply release the rotation button and remove from the hair. Use the 
low heat setting (low brush speed) and practise rotating the brush 
on the lower ends of your hair until you feel comfortable with the 
styling action.  If hair continues to wrap around the barrel you need 
to increase the downward tension. 
It is important to section your hair before styling and style section by 
section to get the best results. 

14. For even more volume, allow the brush to rotate, winding the  
 

entire section of hair around the barrel, the brush will move  

 

upwards towards your scalp then release the the rotation switch  

 

and leave in the hair for a few seconds.

15. To release the section of hair, press and hold the opposite
 

rotation button to unwind the hair section. If using the styler as  

 

outlined in points 14. and 15., do not wind the hair too tightly  

 

near the scalp as over time this could flatten your bristles.
