Attachments
Rotating 50mm Soft Bristle Brush Attachment
To make the brush rotate, press and hold the buttons marked '<<' and '>>'. This will make the brush head rotate clockwise and anti-clockwise.
- Place the brush underneath the hair section close to the scalp and hold for a few seconds to boost volume at the roots.
- Move the styler down through the hair and start to rotate the brush away from your head by pressing and holding the appropriate rotation button.
- As you do this, resist the rotation of the brush by pulling the brush downwards. This will create tension through the section of hair.
- As you reach the ends of the hair section, continue rotating the brush to roll the ends under.
- Repeat for each section of hair.
20mm Soft Bristle Brush Attachment
- Place the brush head under a section of hair, close to the roots.
- Slowly move the brush down along the section, towards the ends of the hair. Rotate the appliance slightly to curl the ends under.
- Repeat for each section of hair.
Straightening Attachment
Turn the tension control dial on the top of the straightening attachment to select the required setting for your hair type. When using the straightening attachment for the first time, select setting 1 and gradually increase the tension until the desired result is achieved.
Tension Settings Guide:
- Fine Hair = Setting 1
- Medium Hair = Setting 2
- Thick Hair = Setting 3
- Curly Hair = Setting 4
- Place the straightening attachment under a section of hair, as close to the roots as possible with the straightening comb pointing away from your head.
- Use your other hand to pull the hair section taut against the brush head until the straightening combs penetrate through the hair.
- Gently glide the straightening brush through the section of hair, until you reach the ends.
- Repeat for each section of hair.
Drying Nozzle Attachment
Direct the airflow onto the hair and move the airstyler around the head to remove excess moisture pre-styling.
Heat Settings
There are 2 heat settings plus a cool setting. Slide the switch to the first position for the cool setting '*', the second position for the low heat 'I', and the third position for the high heat 'II'.
Note: If you have delicate, fine, bleached or coloured hair, use the lower heat settings. For thicker hair, use the higher heat setting.
