USE
Read the Safety Instructions before use.
To straighten your hair
• Prepare your hair for straightening: wash and blow dry your hair and untangle
using a large-toothed comb.
• Separate your hair into sections. Clip the upper layers to the top or your head to
work with the layers underneath.
• Plug in the BaByliss Ceramic-Tourmaline straightener and press the 'I' button.
When using the unit for the first time, you might notice a little smoke and a
distinct odour: this is common and will disappear in the following use.
• Select a temperature on the temperature control. It is generally recommended to
use a lower temperature for fine, lightened and/or damaged hair, and a higher
temperature for curly, thick and/or hard to straighten hair. Use the following table
for reference:
Temperature
130°-160°C
160°-200°C
200°-230°C
• The indicator light will come on: after a very short preheating time (about 15
sec.), your straightener is ready to use.
• Take a section of hair about 2 to 3 cm wide and place it between the 2 heating
plates close to the roots.
• Press the handles of the straightener, grip the straightener tightly to hold the
section and slide it slowly from the roots to the ends. Repeat if necessary, then
release the handles.
• Take a new section and repeat until you have straightened all of your hair.
• Note! Every time you use the straightener, there might be a little smoke. This
could result from evaporating sebum or the remnants of hair products (leave-in
hair care, spray, etc.) or damp hair.
• Give your hair the final touch. Set the style with a light mist of hairspray or a small
amount of mousse, but do not brush your hair.
• After use, press the '0' button and unplug the straightener. Allow it to cool
completely before storing.
To shape your hair
The BaByliss Ceramic-Tourmaline straightener can also be used to accent certain
sections of hair (to straighten the fringe or create a tousled look, etc.)
• To style your hair with the ends curling under, follow the above instructions but
turn the appliance inwards (as you would with a brush when blow-drying). Hold
in place for a few seconds, then release. (FIG. 1)
• To have the ends curl out, use the same movement but turn the straightener
outward. (FIG. 2)
