Crimping Tongs
For optimum results, work on smooth hair or hair that has previously been straightened.
To create small curls in the hair, place both heating plates into
the tongs so that the curled sides are resting on one another.
1. Partition off and tauten strands of hair.
2. Open the tongs, insert the strand at the highest point and
close the tongs. Hold them in position for a few seconds.
3. Open the tongs and then start again a little lower on the
curl that has been created. Repeat until the hair is as curly
as you want.
Straightener Tongs
To straighten the hair, place both heating plates into the tongs
so that the smooth sides are resting on one another.
1. Partition off and tauten strands of hair.
2. Open the tongs, insert the strand at the highest point and
close the tongs.
3. Allow the tongs to glide down to the tips of the hair with a
fl
owing movement.
To make frizzy hair softer, place the crimping tongs on
the lengths and leave the hair curly at the base. This
will preserve the volume.
Curling Iron
1. Separate off a strand of hair. Take thin strands of hair for
small and
fl
exible curls and thicker strands for soft,
fl
owing
curls.
2. Press the lever to open the curling tongs of the curling
iron (
1
). Place the tip of the strand into the curling tongs
and release the lever. This
fi
xes the strand in place.
3. Rotate the curling iron and wind the strand evenly around
it. Keep twisting the hair up to the point at which the curls
should begin. Make sure that the curling iron does not
come into contact with the scalp.
4. Hold the curling iron in position for a few seconds.
5. Then open the curling tongs and pull out the curling iron.
