5. Operating Instructions
Achieving perfect curls with your MiraCurl 3 is simple with these steps:
- Prepare Hair: Ensure hair is clean, dry, and combed through to remove any tangles.
- Select Settings: Adjust the desired temperature, timer (8, 10, or 12 seconds for looser to tighter curls), and curl direction (Left, Right, or Alternate) using the control buttons on the device.
- Section Hair: Take a small section of hair, no more than 1 inch wide. For best results, ensure the section is clean and free of knots.
- Position Device: Hold the MiraCurl 3 with the open part of the curl chamber facing towards your head. Position the hair section into the device where you want the curl to begin.
- Initiate Curl: Close the handles of the device. The hair will automatically be drawn into the ceramic curl chamber.
- Wait for Beeps: The device will emit a series of individual beeps as it heats the hair. Once the set time is complete, it will emit a rapid series of beeps.
- Release Curl: Open the handles to release the perfectly formed curl. Allow the curl to cool completely before styling for maximum hold.
- Repeat: Continue this process section by section until all desired hair is curled.
