Using the Coanda Smoothing Dryer

Creating Curls and Waves with the 1.2" Airwrap Long Barrel

Attach the 1.2" barrel. Using high heat and high airflow, allow air to automatically wrap damp hair tresses around the barrel. Hold until hair is dry, then use a cold shot to set the style. Turn the machine off before removing it from hair.

Volumizing with the Large Round Volumizing Brush

Defining Curls with the Diffuser
