as described in this manual. Do not use attach-
ments not recommended by the manufacturer. 

5. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. 
Do not pull, twist, or wrap line cord around 
appliance, even during storage.

6. Never block the air opening of the appli-
ance or place the appliance on a soft 
surface, such as a bed or couch, where the 
air openings may be blocked. Keep the air 
openings free of lint, hair, and the line. Unplug

13. This appliance is for household use only.

14. Attachment may be hot during use, allow

This appliance is intended for household use. 
Use on Alternating Current (60 Hertz) only. 
Standard appliances are designed to operate at 
120 volts AC.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade 
is wider than the other). As a safety feature, 
this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one 
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, 
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact 
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat 
this safety feature.

CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into a standard 
household electrical outlet (120V). When the 
red Ready dot on the spoon of the iron turns 
white, proper styling temperature has been 
reached.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each 
section before winding. Pressing the automatic 
curl release, place curling iron midway up the 
hair section, then spread hair evenly between 
spoon and barrel. Let go of the automatic curl 
release to hold hair in place. Gently slide curling 
iron down to hair ends. To avoid crimped ends, 
make sure they are securely wound under the 
spoon in the direction of the desired curl.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want 
it curled, being careful not to let the iron touch 
the scalp. Hold in place 8-12 seconds. For 
tighter, bouncier curls, roll less hair. For looser, 
free-flowing curls, roll more hair.
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and 
press the automatic curl release. To set the 
curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
5. Some experimenting is necessary when 
first using the curling iron, or when changing 
to a different hair style.
FOR TOUSLED HAIR

Create soft, tousled waves by curling each hair 
section in a random direction. Then, turn head 
upside down, shake, and gently scrunch hair 
with fingers. Bring head back to position and 
repeat for fullest volume.

Pick up a section of hair and place the curling 
iron under it close to the scalp, making half 
a turn downward. Remove the curling iron. 
Working with the same hair section, start 
where you left off and place the curling iron on 
top of the hair, curling it up half a turn. Proceed 
down the same hair section, alternating the 
curl upward and downward. Repeat proce-
dure with remaining sections of hair. For best 
results, hair should be about 6-8 inches long.

HOT BRUSH BASICS
1. Plug the hot brush cord into a standard 
household electrical outlet (120V). When the 
red Ready dot turns white, proper styling
temperature has been reached.
2. Use of the hot brush is very easy to master. 
Roll one section of hair at a time around the hot 
brush from the bottom up. To avoid tangling, 
never roll the hair around the hot brush 
more than two times. When hair is warm (not 
hot) to the touch, the curl is set. For hair that is 
harder to curl, leave the hot brush in place a 
little longer. A hot brush generally gives a lighter 
curl than a curling iron – for very hard to curl 
hair, try switching to your curling iron.
3. The hot brush can be used for quick touch-
ups without shampooing. After heating the 
hot brush, simply brush the hair back to its 
original style.
To change the style, mist the hair lightly with 
water before using the hot brush. No combing 
is necessary!
