Adjusting Barrel Size

To adjust the barrel size, grasp the rotating cool tip and twist. The barrel will expand or contract to the desired size. Ensure the barrel is securely locked in place before use.

Curling Technique

1. Ensure hair is clean, dry, and detangled.
2. Section your hair into manageable portions.
3. Wearing a heat-protective glove (if included or desired), take a section of hair and wrap it around the barrel, starting from the root or mid-shaft, down to the ends. Avoid touching the hot barrel directly.
4. Hold for a few seconds (duration depends on hair type and desired curl intensity).
5. Release the hair from the barrel.
6. Repeat for all sections of hair.
7. Allow curls to cool completely before styling or brushing for best results.
