TO STRAIGHTEN HAIR

• Connect the supply plug to a convenient socket outlet and switch on.
• Switch the hair straightener on by pushing the “ON/OFF” button on, the hair straightener plates will heat up.
• Use the temperature selection button to set the desired temperature (9 preset temperatures available between 110℃ and 230℃).
• Comb your hair and hold a section that is not wider than 5 cm for straightening.
• Work with the underneath layers first. Place it between the hair straightener plates and press the handles firmly together.
• Slide the hair straightener down the length of the hair in a single motion (Not more than 5 seconds) from root to end, without stopping to prevent overheating.
• To create flicks, turn the straightener 180 degrees (half-circle) inwards or outwards, when it reaches the end of the hair. Hold the straightener in that position for 2 to 3 seconds, and then release it.
• Repeat above steps until you achieve the desired effect. It may be necessary to repeat process on certain areas, depending on the texture of your hair. Some practice is necessary when learning to use a hair straightener.
