How to use?
For fast, effective and safe hair curling you need to use the styler correctly. The styling process consists of several actions that should be followed for a positive result.
- Hair should be washed and thoroughly dried. Do not use the appliance for styling wet hair. This will lead to their dryness and brittleness.
- Then choose the right nozzle, focusing on the desired effect. This can be a plate for straightening hair or a conical nozzle for curls. Then turn on the styler.
- While the appliance heats up to the required temperature, the styling strand must be separated. The rest of the hair is fixed with hairpins or clips so that they do not interfere during operation.
- The selected strand is curled along its entire length. The tips are placed between the clamps. Gently rotate the styler so that the curl completely wraps around the heating element. You can warm the strand for a maximum of 15 seconds. After it is carefully freed by reverse scrolling movements.
If you need to straighten your hair, the selected strand is firmly fixed at the roots, clamped between the plates, and slowly lead down to the ends.
But to give the hairstyle volume, use a brush head. Hair is wound on it so that all of them are placed between the bristles. After 10-15 seconds, the curls are carefully removed.
Some tips from stylists:
- comb your hair before styling, this will prevent tangling;
- use special products that protect the hair from the action of high temperatures (such compounds nourish the strands, preserving the natural beauty);
- when working as a styler at the roots, be extremely careful not to burn your scalp;
- Do not wind the hair too tight, it will only harm them.
