Using crepe-/flat iron

Use the adapter (b) to change accessories such as flat- or crepe irons.

oMake sure the crepe iron/hair straightener is switched off and push down the adaptor until

the arrow is aligned with the two straight lines – the accessory is now a hair straightener.

oPush the adapter up until the arrow is aligned with the two wavy lines – the accessory is

now a crepe iron.

oWhen the adapter is aligned with the dot in the middle the crepe-/flat iron is locked.

Using the narrow hair straightener

The narrow hair straightener is used as a separate hair straightener without an adaptor. It is used for smaller locks than the crepe iron/hair straightener.

Using curling irons

There are three different sizes of curling iron: The thinnest gives tight curls and the thickest loose curls.

The larger the amount of hair treated at a time, the looser the curls will be.

You can also make curls softer using the brush accessory (2) and coil accessory (3) (see below).

Styling tips

Brush hair thoroughly before setting. Divide your hair up into small sections, and deal with them separately piece by piece as described below until the desired result is achieved.

Creped hair:

oStart with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide and close the crepe iron’s ceramic plates (a)

around the hair near the scalp.

oKeep the plates closed for approx. 10 seconds.

oOpen the plates and close them again further along the lock of hair.

Flat, smooth hair:

oStart with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide (4 cm wide when using the narrow hair straightener) and close the accesory’s

ceramic plates around the hair near the scalp.

oSlowly slide the apparatus towards the hair ends in a fluent movement. Keep the hair tight to avoid kinks. For more lift in the hair, smooth only the outer part of the hair lock.

Hair with a flick:

o Start with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide. Hold the curling iron so that the jaw is at the reverse side of the lock and close the jaw close to the scalp.

oSlide the apparatus slowly towards the hair ends.

oFinish by curling the last piece of hair a little out at the ends.

Hair with a curl:

o Start with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide. Hold the curling iron so that the jaw is at the front of the lock and close the jaw close to the scalp.

oSlide the apparatus slowly towards the hair ends.

oFinish by curling the last piece of hair under at the ends.
