Making loose curls in short and medium
hair length

determine how long the brush should be held in
your hair to achieve a good result. Start with 8 to
10 seconds.You may have to hold the brush
longer in your hair for tighter curls. Less tight
curls will require less than 8 seconds.

the styler. A 'click' will be heard.

Take a lock of hair and wind it round the
brush. Make sure the end of the lock is
wound in the required direction.
- Do not wind too much hair around the barrel
at a time.
- The thinner the lock of hair, the tighter the curl
will be.
- Do not wind a lock of hair more than twice
round the barrel.
- Make sure the lock of hair is in contact with
