OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This curling appliance is intended for household use. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. Standard curling appliances are designed to operate at 120 volts AC.
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.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Before using Shiny Styles™Iron:
1.Place unit on a firm surface for safety.
2.Select and change plates before heating unit. NEVER CHANGE PLATES WHEN HOT!!! To change plates, simply hold the side button down as you slide the plates off the unit (diagram 1). Replace desired plates by aligning the grooves on the bottom of the plate with the unit. The plate should click into place and be flush with the unit.
3.Plug unit in, allowing 20 - 25 minutes for opti- mum heat.
4.Use Shiny Styles™Iron on dry hair. You can use mousse, gel and other hair preparations before or after using Shiny Styles™ Iron to achieve the look you desire.

STYLING WITH Shiny Styles™Iron
1.Deep wave plates: Deep wave plates can be used on the entire head or on small sections of hair. Shiny Styles™ Iron works well on wavy hair, giving it a more uniform glamorous look, and on straight hair, giving it body and texture. Take one small section of hair at a time, place it between plates, and gently press the plates shut. Always work from the roots toward the end of the hair. Keep plates closed for 5 - 10 seconds. Release that section of hair and reposition the styler so that the next crimp falls in line with the first.
2.Straight plates: The straightener is designed to smooth unwanted curl or frizz, to shape and straighten your hair in the latest stunning styles. Take one small section of hair at a time. Pull the hair downward and hold taut. Starting at the root, run the straightener down the hair in one smooth movement. Keep the strands of hair smooth while you work, to avoid ridges.
Removable combs: Your straightening iron includes two removable comb attachments. The nat- ural boar and nylon bristle comb will help to provide tension and guide your hair as you use the straight- ening iron. To remove or attach the comb, turn unit off and allow unit to cool. Hold unit firmly with one hand; with your other hand, slide comb away from the iron. When replacing the comb, align the comb with the slot on the side of the iron and slide comb into position. Make sure the comb securely locks into position.
3.Micro crimp plates: Similar to the deep wave plate, the micro crimp plate can be used on the entire head or on small sections of hair, to
give it volume and texture.
4.Star imprint plate: First choose a spot where you'd like to 'print' a star on your hair. A strand near your face, or a pair – one on each side of your face – or a strand of hair directly in the back is a good spot, but use your imagination. One star imprint makes a good 'shining impression', but if you have hair long enough, several looks great. Close the iron over the strand of hair to be imprinted, hold for about 5-10 seconds and release. Add a little gel or mousse to the strand before or after you 'print' and the impression will last longer. Spray helps too.
Combinations: Mix and match shiny strands with micro crimp strands and/or stars. Experiment with different styles, using only one plate or a combi- nation of different plates.
