How to use

Plug the curling iron into a suitable mains outlet and select an appropriate heating level for your hair type, starting from a lower setting if hair is fine or chemically treated. Allow the device to reach the selected temperature before wrapping a small section of dry hair around the heated barrel, hold for a few seconds until the curl forms, then release gently. Repeat across required sections and finish by allowing curls to cool for longer hold. Turn off and unplug the device after use and let it cool completely before storing.

Recommendations

For best results, work with dry, detangled hair and use a heat protection product to reduce the risk of heat damage. Start at the lowest effective temperature and increase only if necessary. Avoid leaving hair in contact with the heated surface for prolonged periods to prevent overheating. Store the curling iron in a dry place once it has fully cooled.
