The appliance features 1-second heat-up technology, reaching your desired styling temperature almost instantly.

3.2 Adjusting Wind Speed

Press the Wind Speed Button to select from 3 airflow intensities. The device uses a 110,000 RPM turbo motor to blast 23m/s ionic airflow.

3.3 Wet-to-Dry Straightening

This appliance is designed for use on both wet and dry hair. For wet-to-dry styling, ensure hair is towel-dried to remove excess water. Section your hair and pass the straightener through each section. The high-speed ionic airflow will dry and straighten simultaneously.

For dry hair, select your desired temperature. Section your hair and glide the appliance from roots to ends. The floating ceramic plates ensure smooth movement without snagging.

Press the Cooling Button to set your style with a burst of cool air. This helps to lock in the style for longer-lasting results.
