3. Setup
- Prepare Hair: Ensure your hair is thoroughly brushed and free of tangles. For heatless curling, start with damp hair. For heated curling, start with dry hair.
- Adjust Ribbon Length: The satin curling ribbon features snaps that allow you to adjust its length to suit your hair length (long, medium, or short). Secure the snaps to achieve the desired length.
- Heated Option Preparation (if applicable): If using the heated function, plug the USB power cord into the curling ribbon and connect it to a compatible USB power source (not included). Allow a few minutes for the ribbon to heat up. The ribbon is designed to provide gentle heat.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 General Curling Steps
- Place the curling ribbon on top of your head, ensuring it is centered.
- Secure the curling ribbon in place using the provided claw clip at the crown of your head.
- Starting from the top, take small sections of your hair and wrap them around the ribbon, moving downward. Ensure the hair is wrapped smoothly and evenly.
- Once a section of hair is wrapped, secure the end with one of the satin scrunchies.
- Repeat this process for the remaining hair on the other side of the ribbon.

4.2 Heated Curling (for dry hair)
For faster results and defined curls, use the heated option on dry hair. After wrapping your hair as described above, allow the curls to set for approximately 15 minutes. The gentle heat helps to quickly form and set the curls.
4.3 Heatless Curling (for damp hair)
For soft, natural-looking curls and to minimize heat exposure, use the heatless option on damp hair. After wrapping your hair, leave the curler in place for several hours or overnight. Ensure your hair is completely dry before removing the curler for best results.

4.4 Removing the Curler and Styling
- Once the curls have set (after 15 minutes for heated, or when dry for heatless), carefully remove the scrunchies from the ends of your hair.
- Gently unwrap your hair from the satin curling ribbon, moving upward.
- Remove the claw clip and the curling ribbon.
- Style your newly formed curls as desired. For a more natural look, gently separate the curls with your fingers.

5.2 Storage

6. Troubleshooting
- Curls are not holding:
- Ensure hair is completely dry before removing the curler for heatless styling.
- For heated styling, ensure the USB cord is properly connected and the ribbon has had sufficient time to warm up.
- Try wrapping smaller sections of hair for tighter, more defined curls.
- Consider using a light hold hairspray after removing the curler.
- Heated option not warming up:
- Verify the USB power cord is securely connected to both the curling ribbon and a functioning USB power source.
- Ensure the power button on the USB cord is activated.
- Allow adequate time (a few minutes) for the gentle heat to become noticeable.
- Hair slipping off the ribbon:
- Ensure hair is wrapped tightly and evenly around the ribbon.
- Use the claw clip to firmly secure the ribbon to your head.
- Secure the ends of the hair with the scrunchies to prevent unwrapping.
