• Use on Dry Hair: Ensure that your hair is completely dry before using any of the styling tools. Wet or damp hair can cause damage and pose a safety risk.
• Proper Storage: Store the hair styling tools in a cool, dry place when they are not in use. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or humidity, which can damage the tools and pose safety hazards.
• Unplug After Use: Always unplug the tools from the power source when you have finished using them. This prevents accidental burns and electrical hazards.
• Avoid Contact with Water: Keep the hair styling tools away from water, sinks, bathtubs, or any other sources of moisture. Using these tools near water can lead to electrical shock.
• Use the Provided Accessories: BaBylissPRO often includes heat-resistant gloves and styling clips with their styling tools. Use these accessories to protect your hands from burns and assist with styling. Follow the instructions provided for their safe use.
• Avoid Overheating: Do not set the tools to excessively high temperatures that are not suitable for your hair type. Higher temperatures can cause damage to your hair and increase the risk of burns.
