Use
W Risk of burns!
Never allow appliance to come into
contact with skin (scalp or ears).
You can use the hair straightener to
straighten or curl your hair.
■ Only use the appliance on dry hair.
Note: Fine hair responds particularly quickly
to the treatment with the heating plates.
The even heat emission of the heating
plates is especially gentle on the hair.
The result is smooth hair with an intensive,
silky shine.
Important: Never apply in one place for
longer than 2 seconds.

■ Starting from the roots, place a strand of
hair between the plates.
■ Press the plates together and pull down
gently and evenly toward the ends of the
hair.
■ Treat all strands in the same manner.
Allow hair to cool completely before
styling.
Tip: For shoulder-length hair, each strand
should take about 10 seconds.
Curling your hair
There are three methods for curling hair.
For each method, separate dry hair into
even sections, roughly 2 cm wide. The finer
the strand, the tighter the curl.
