I STRAIGHTENING FUNCTION

the plates.
• Close the plates firmly and slide the appliance slowly down the length of hair
from the root to the tip of the hair.
• You can adjust the temperature during the straightening process by using the
+ and – buttons (C).
• The ceramic coating of the plates protects your hair against excessive temper-
atures, by distributing the heat in a uniform manner.
• Wait until your straightened hair has cooled down before styling it.
HAIRDRESSER’S TIP
• To avoid a stripy effect forming along the length of your hair, ensure your
movement when straightening hair is smooth and continuous.
• To emphasise the effect, you can apply a hair styling mousse before straight-
ening.

function selector switch (I).
• Form a lock of hair 2 to 3 cm wide.
• Open the grip (H) by pressing down on the lever (G) and slip the tip of your
hair between the tube and the grip.
• Release the grip (H) to close it.
• Check that the tip of your hair is rolled around the grip, in the direction of the
curl.
• Use your other hand to support the stay cool tip (K).
• Turn the appliance in order to wind the lock of hair around the appliance.
• Carry on turning the lock of hair, moving up towards the scalp, taking care not
to burn yourself.
F
• Keep the curling iron in this position for around 20 seconds (longer for tighter
curls).
• Unravel the curling iron halfway and then open the hair grip by pressing
down on the lever to release the hair.
· Repeat as often as necessary using a new section of hair to make new curls.
HAIRDRESSER’S TIP
• To give more volume: you can divide the curls up with your fingers.
• To obtain very tight curls: only wind small sections of hair around the appli-
ance at a time.
• For more wavy curls: wind bigger sections of hair around the appliance.
• To ensure the hair ends behave themselves: check that the ends are properly
wound under the hair grip, in the direction of the curl.
• For a more natural wave result, after your curls have cooled down you can
gently comb or brush your hair.
Leave your hair to cool down before styling it
