Overview

Before styling your hair

Tips and Tricks
Refer to the Quick Start Guide for detailed usage instructions.

( Fig.2 ) There are different points where the curling attachment can be fixed. For your convenience, you can change the position according to the way you hold the appliance
Pre-dry your hair, including the roots, before using the product. For optimal results, hair should be 80%–90% dry
Comb hair thoroughly and ensure that there are no tangles
Separate hair into sections. Keep all unused hair away from the opening. Make sure that there are no stray or loose strands near the opening
Start curling from the back of the head
( Fig. 3 ) Before inserting the hair, check that the opening is clear. Press the rotating button to make sure there is nothing blocking the opening
Twist the hair once to make it easier to put into the opening
Use the contours or the marked arrows to guide hair into the chamber
Place the opening on your hair where you want the curls to start. Do not place too close to the roots
Hold the hair strands taut when putting into the opening
Do not immediately release the rotation button when the hair can no longer be seen at the opening. Allow the rotation to continue for another 10 seconds to ensure that the hair is completely inside the chamber
Check that the ends of the hair strands remain enclosed within the chamber and no stray hair is sticking out
( Fig. 4 ) If hair becomes trapped, switch off the device. Gently remove any trapped hair in thin strands, section by section, until all of the hair is freed. Alternatively, you can press the side buttons () of the air curl attachment to remove the top cover of the attachment and release trapped hair

Brush attachment ()
Remove the protection cap from the brush () before using.
- Make waves/volume in the hair ( Fig.5-B )
1. Place the brush () at the hair tips, and use the rotational button () to roll up the strand from the ends to the roots.
2. Keep the brush at the hair roots until the hair is completely dry.
3. Remove the brush from the hair by using the opposite rotation direction. To avoid tangles, remember to move the brush away from your hair as you do so.
4. To style the rest of your hair, repeat steps 1-3.
- Style the hair tips (Fig. 5-C)

Insert the brush () at the hair tips.
Choose the rotation direction for the desired results ( inwards flicks or outwards flicks ).
Activate the rotation, allowing the brush to rotate at the hair tips until the hair is completely dry and properly shaped.
To style the rest of your hair, repeat steps 1-3.

Straighten the hair (Fig.5-D)

Insert the brush under your hair, at the roots.
Pull the brush down the length of the hair from the roots to the ends, without using the rotation.
