STRAIGHTENING BASICS
- Plug the straightening iron into a standard electrical outlet (120-240V~). It is not necessary to touch the iron with your hand to judge readiness.
- Use the +/- temperature controls to select the setting for your hair type. You can use the chart outlined below as a reference. The iron will heat up very quickly.
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS| HAIR TYPE
---|---
300°F (150°C)| Fragile, very fine hair
340°F (170°C)| Thin, easy-to-straighten hair
375°F (190°C)| Normal textured hair
410°F (210°C)| Wavy or curly hair
450°F (232°C)| Coarse, very thick - Section dry hair evenly, and comb each section. Position the iron on the hair as far up as you want hair to be straightened, being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp. Close the iron with the hair between the two plates and gently pull the iron down to the end of the section of hair you are straightening. Repeat this process several times, if necessary. Let the hair cool before combing.
STYLING TIPS USING STRAIGHTENER
For short, spiky looks use gel or spray and hold the sections up and away from
the head while you straighten.
For smoothing and taming curly hair, or creating a stylish, smooth bob, use
the straightener just on the ends, leaving the hair wavy at the roots for lift
and body. For this type of effect,\ keep the straightener moving while
following the shape of your hairstyle.
