BASIC HAIR CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • For optimal results, shampoo and condition your hair prior to styling, then dry your hair thoroughly and make sure that it is tangle free.
  • For extra protection use a heat protection spray.
  • Hairsprays contain flammable material – do not use while using this product.

Note: The Mineral Glow Straightener is not recommended for use on synthetic wigs or hair extensions.

CERAMIC COATED FLOATING PLATES, INFUSED WITH 4 NATURAL MINERALS

The ceramic coating is infused with opal, moonstone, tourmaline & quartz, for a smooth glide.

HIGH HEAT PERFORMANCE UP TO 230°C

Ready to use in 15 seconds with the fast heat up system.

HOW TO USE YOUR MINERAL GLOW STRAIGHTENER

  • Plug the product into the mains power supply. When the styler is plugged in but not turned on, ‘—‘ will show in the digital temperature display indicating the styler is in standby mode.
  • Press and hold the power on/off button to switch on.
    The digital temperature display will show a flashing blue illumination and flashing bars, indicating the straightener is heating up to the default temperature.

Note: Temperature setting will default to 190ºC.

  • Once the default/selected temperature has been reached, the blue illumination and bars in the digital display will become solid.
  • To select a higher/lower temperature, press the ‘+’ or ‘-’ temperature increase/decrease button.

CAUTION: Take extra care when using the straightener, as it can get very hot. It is important to establish the correct temperature for your hair type prior to use, to prevent over drying or damage to your hair. If in any doubt, start with the low temperature setting first, and increase the temperature gradually by pressing the “+” temperature increase button.

  • Working on one section at a time, run the straightener through the entire length of the hair without stopping.
  • To switch your straightener off, press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds.

RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURES

Temperature Hair type
150°C – 170°C Thin/fine, damaged or bleached hair
170°C – 190°C Normal, healthy hair
210°C – 230°C Thick, very curly and difficult to style hair

TEMPERATURE BOOST FUNCTION

  • This straightener features a turbo boost function which will automatically boosts to the highest temperature of 230ºC. This function is designed for quick touch ups of stubborn, hard to style sections.
  • Press and hold the ‘+’ temperature increase button for 2 seconds to operate.

CAUTION: The highest temperature is not suitable for every hair type. If you plan to use the boost function of 230°C, test on a small section of hair first.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL LOCK FUNCTION

This straightener has a temperature lock to prevent the selected temperature from being accidentally altered during use.

  • When the selected temperature has been reached, simply press and hold the ‘–’ temperature decrease button for 2 seconds. This will lock the current heat setting and a padlock icon ( ) will appear on the digital display.
  • To unlock the temperature lock, simply press and hold the ‘–’ temperature button for 2 seconds.

AUTOMATIC SAFETY SHUT OFF

If the straightener is not used for a period of 60 minutes (temperature is constant) it will automatically shut off.

TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR

To make styling easier, part the hair either in the middle or to the side and use clips to section your hair, top, sides and back. You may need to comb through your hair before straightening to ensure that it is tangle free.

  • Start at the nape of the neck and straighten the underneath sections of hair first. Then, move to the next layers, finishing with the hair around the part line.
  • Taking about 5cm section of hair at a time, firmly holding the plates together, run the straightener down through the entire length of the section of hair from roots to ends, in one smooth stroke.
  • Repeat until the desired amount of straightening has been achieved.

TO CURL YOUR HAIR

  • Section your hair as above.

  • Take about a 5cm section of hair and firmly grip it between the plates, close to the roots.
    Note: The smaller the section the tighter the curl.

  • Keeping tension firm, gently rotate the straightener 180° whilst pulling through the length of the hair section.

  • Make sure to keep rotating the straightener all the way down to the ends.

  • Removing the straightener and holding the hair length, allow the curl to spring into shape.

STORAGE, CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Let the straightener cool down before cleaning and storing away.

  • Safely store the straightener with the plates locked together.
