Operating Instructions
For best results, ensure your hair is completely dry before curling. Use a heat protectant spray to minimize heat damage.
- Prepare Hair: Section your hair into manageable portions, approximately 1-inch wide.
- Position the Iron: Open the clamp and place a section of hair between the clamp and the barrel, starting a few inches from the roots.
- Wrap Hair: Close the clamp and wrap the hair around the barrel, away from your face, ensuring the ends are securely held by the clamp. Utilize the extra-long barrel to wrap longer hair sections without overlapping.
- Hold and Release: Hold for 5-10 seconds, depending on your hair type and desired curl intensity. For softer curls or waves, hold for a shorter duration. For defined curls, hold longer.
- Release Curl: Gently open the clamp and release the curl. Allow the curl to cool completely before touching or brushing to set the style.
- Repeat: Continue this process for all sections of your hair.
