use the heat protection stand to avoid causing
damage to surfaces.

Divide your hair into sections, brushing each
section thoroughly. Use small sections of hair for
tighter more defined curls, and larger sections
for softer larger curls.
n

5
Raise the tong by pressing the tong lever. Place
the outer section of the hair between the lever
and the barrel. Lower the lever to trap the end of
the hair. Rotate the handle to wind the hair
round the outside of the tong. You may find it
easier to hold the finger grip loosely with your
other hand.

Leave the tong in place for about 10-15
seconds, depending on the length and thickness
of your hair. Unwind the hair carefully, and raise
the tong lever to release the hair. For best results
secure the curl to the head with a grip until you
have completed all sections. Leave in place to
cool, and then run your fingers gently through
the curl to soften the finish.

Repeat on all sections of the hair.

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