Curling Technique

1. Power On: Turn the curling iron ON using the power switch. Select your desired temperature. The 24K Gold Technology ensures quick heating.
2. Section Hair: Divide dry hair into manageable sections. For best results, use a heat protectant spray.
3. Clamp Hair: Open the styling clamp and place the end of a hair section under the clamp. For smoother ringlet curls, ensure the hair is evenly wrapped.
4. Wrap Hair: Roll the iron upwards towards the scalp, wrapping the hair around the extended barrel. The longer barrel accommodates longer hair lengths.
5. Hold: Hold for a few seconds (adjust based on hair type and desired curl intensity). The consistent heat helps set the curl quickly.
6. Release: Open the clamp and gently release the curl. Allow curls to cool completely before styling for long-lasting results.

• Storage: Store the curling iron in a cool, dry place. Do not wrap the cord tightly around the iron, as this can damage the cord. Use the 2-hour auto shut-off feature for safety.
