BASIC HAIR CARE INSTRUCTIONS
For optimal results, shampoo and condition your hair prior to styling. Dry your
hair thoroughly before using your Pro Shine Hot Rollers and make sure that it is
tangle free. The hot rollers are suitable for all types of hair although the length
of time for which they should be kept in the hair will depend on individual hair
types, and also the type of curl that you wish to achieve.
HOW TO USE YOUR REMINGTON® PRO SHINE HOT ROLLERS
Place the unit on a flat, hard, heat resistant surface. Plug the unit into a
household (230/240V AC) power outlet. Switch power on. The on indicator
light will illuminate. Allow the rollers to heat up with the lid closed, the rollers
will be ready to use in about 10 minutes. When the rollers are ready to use, the
ready to use dot indicator will change to light pink and the rollers will feel warm
to the touch.
Each roller has an exclusive wax core that retains heat for longer, creating curls
that last. The rollers are thermostatically controlled and cannot overheat.
Section the hair and make sure it is smooth and tangle free before beginning
to style. Wrap a section of hair around the roller from the ends and keeping the
hair taut, wind the roller up all the way to the roots or to mid length, depending
on desired results.
Secure the roller in place with an appropriate size metal pin or easy to use clip.
The pins and clips are colour coded by size and match the stay cool outer rim
of the roller – white pins and clips are small to use on the small rollers, pink
pins and clips are medium to use on the medium rollers and silver pins and
clips are large to use on the large rollers. Place the pin or clip across the roller
as close to the roots as possible.
Use the small size rollers for tight curls, the medium rollers for loose curls and
the large rollers for volume and waves.
Because hair types vary from person to person, it is advised to perform a curl
test on your hair to determine how long the rollers should be left in the hair.
Usually after a short time of about 5 – 10 minutes, there will be a soft curl in
the hair. The longer the time the rollers are left in your hair, the more curly the
effect. If your hair curls easily it may need only a few minutes, but hard to curl
hair may need 10 minutes or until the rollers have cooled.
If you wish to reuse the rollers, return them to the unit and wait until the ready
dot indicator lightens (approximately 10 minutes).
