STRAIGHTENER
:
n
n
1
Choose either setting I or II dependent on the
temperature you require. The temperature you
need will depend on the thickness of your hair
and the result you want to achieve. Setting ‘I’ is
the lowest, ‘II’ the highest. The red indicator
light will illuminate when you select the heat
setting required.

Once the straightener has reached a temperature
suitable for use, the light will begin to flash. This
usually takes less than 1 minute.

Ensure your hair is thoroughly dry before you
begin styling – this will avoid damage to the
hair.
n

Divide your hair into sections, brushing each
section thoroughly.
n

Clamp a section of the hair between the
straightening plates, as close to the roots as
possible. Gently slide the straightener down
your hair shaft to the ends. For more difficult
sections of hair, you may need to repeat this.
Avoid leaving your hair clamped inside the
straightener for more than a few seconds, as this
could cause unnecessary damage to the cuticle.

To create movement in the hair, use your wrist
to shape the ends either inwards our outwards
depending on the style you wish to achieve.

Repeat on all sections of the hair.

CLEANING
:
It is normal to find build up of hair products on the
straightening plates. In order to avoid this you
should clean your straightener regularly. Always wait
for the plates to cool down thoroughly before
cleaning. Use a damp cloth to remove any build up.
If this fails to clean the plates, try a non abrasive
cleaning wipe e.g. CIF.
