INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is intended for household use
only. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only.
Standard Dryers are designed to operate at 110
to 125 volts A.C. 

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade 
is wider than the other). As a safety feature, 
this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only 
one way. If the plug does not  fit fully in the 
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, 
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt 
to defeat this safety feature.

IMPORTANT OPERATING GUIDE

Use of this dryer on the same circuit or fuse with
other electrical products or appliances may trip
a 15 amp circuit breaker or blow a 15 amp fuse.

NEVER replace the fuse with one rated higher
than the capacity of the circuit. Doing so could
result in an electrical fire.

SUPER STYLING GUIDE

Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s
well maintained. Always treat hair right with
superior quality shampoos, conditioners, and
finishing products.

DRYING BASICS

1. Shampoo and condition hair with products 
of your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel blot
hair to remove excess moisture. Section hair. 
Using the dryer along with your styling brush,
direct hot air through a section of hair 
at a time. Move dryer steadily across each 
section so that the hot air passes through
hair. Direct air flow at hair not scalp.
2. Keep dryer’s air intake vents unobstructed 
and free from hair while drying.
3. To avoid over drying, do not concentrate
heat on any one section for any length of
time. Keep dryer moving as you style.
4. For quick touch ups, between shampoos, 
dampen hair with a mist of water before
styling with the dryer.

GETTING TO KNOW

YOUR HAIR DRYER 

BODY & VOLUME

To create extra 
volume, turn head
upside down while 
drying. Position the air
flow toward the roots
for maximum lift.
When hair is dry, toss
head back and brush
hair into place.

STRAIGHTENING

Work with hair 
in sections when
creating a super
straight look. Using
a large round brush
(approximately 2”
diameter), hold hair
taut in each section
and bend ends
slightly under as you
dry.

MAKING WAVES

Tousled, natural-
looking waves 
are easily created by
grasping hair 
at the roots 
and scrunching
between fingertips
while drying
