USEFUL ADVICE
Quickly gained experience in using your hair straightener will help you determine exactly how
long to set the hair for the effect you want.
- Each time you use your straightener make sure that your hair is perfectly dry, clean and
free from all traces of hairspray, mousse or gel;
- start styling from the back of the neck, then on the sides and end with the forehead.
- when using the hair straightener and during the heating up and cooling down phases,
place it on a smooth and heat-resistant surface;
- while styling, take care not to bring the straightener too close to sensitive areas of the
face, the ears, the neck or the skin;
- after use, let the hair straightener cool down completely before putting it away.
Warning:
When you have finished using the hair straightener, make sure it has cooled down
completely before winding the power cord.
PREPARING THE HAIR
- Wash the hair as usual and brush out any tangles.
- Dry it completely, brushing it from the roots towards the tips.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
- Your hair straightener comes with an electronic temperature control system. This allows
you to regulate the temperature of the plates according to your hair type and the kind of
style you want.
- Press the + button to increase the temperature and the – button to decrease it.
- You can select a temperature of between 140°C and 200°C.

comes on;
- take a thin and limp lock of the same size as the straightener between your fingers and
place it between the two plates;
- hold the lock taut with one hand, close the straightener and slide it down from the roots to
the ends with the other hand;
You can change the temperature whenever you like.
Warning:
While you are using the appliance, you may notice some steam coming out, which is
excess moisture in the hair that soon evaporates. This is not damaging and is a sign
of your hair’s natural hydration.
AUTOMATIC SWITCH-OFF (where available)
The straightener switches off automatically after one hour.
CLEANING
Only clean the plates and the leather handle with a soft, damp cloth:
- unplug the appliance
- check that the plates are cool
