Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for optimal curling results:

1. Power On: Press and hold the power button to turn on the curler. The display will illuminate, indicating it is heating up.
2. Temperature Selection: Use the '+' and '-' buttons to select your desired temperature. The curler offers a range of settings, with a maximum of 200°C for quick and effective curling. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the curler to reach the set temperature.
3. Hair Preparation: Ensure your hair is clean, dry, and detangled. For best results, apply a heat protectant spray.
4. Curling Technique:
   • Take a section of hair, typically 1-2 inches wide.
   • Open the clamp and place the end of the hair section under the clamp.
   • Wrap the hair around the tourmaline ceramic barrel, winding it from the ends towards the roots. Ensure the hair is evenly distributed around the barrel.
   • Hold the curler in place for 5-10 seconds, depending on your hair type and desired curl intensity. The tourmaline ceramic coating helps protect your hair from heat damage and reduces frizz.
   • Release the clamp and gently slide the curler out, allowing the curl to fall naturally.
5. Repeat: Continue curling sections of hair until your desired style is achieved.
6. Power Off: After use, press and hold the power button to turn off the curler. Unplug it from the electrical outlet.

• Storage: Store the curler in a dry, safe place away from moisture. The curler features a convenient hanging loop for easy storage. Allow it to cool completely before storing.
