>Operating instructions

After washing, towel dry your hair. Comb your hair well and do not use hair lacquer or other flammable chemical hair care products.

The rollers are heated on the base. Use the rollers on clean, dry or towel-dry hair. The strength of the curls depends on how long the curlers are kept in and the condition of your hair.

• Place the set on a hard, heat-resistant surface.
• The heated rollers are designed to work on ordinary household current only (120 - 240 volt). It is not intended for commercial use.
• Plug cord into outlet, leaving the pouch open.
• If the rollers are ready for use the red dot on the roller turns light-coloured (visible 'ready for use' color indication).
• Section hair and comb it smooth. Hold the upper and lower part of the hot roller. To avoid scalded fingers, never hold the middle part of the hot roller.
  Take a lock of hair not broader than the length of the roller and pull it vertically from the scalp.
• Bring the ends of the lock onto the roller and now roll towards the scalp while holding the lock taut and vertically from the scalp. The tauter the roller is placed against the scalp, the better the result will be.
  Take the matching butterfly clamp and insert it crossways over the roller, so that the roller remains firmly in place.
• Use medium rollers for smaller curls and the large rollers for bigger curls.
• It is recommended to test on a lock of hair how long the roller must remain in the hair in order to obtain the desired effect. If your hair curls easily, a short time is sufficient. However, if your hair curls with difficulty, it is recommended to leave the rollers in the hair until they have cooled. When the hair is still towel dry when you roll in the rollers, you can, after rolling in all rollers, blow dry your hair with a hair dryer. This provides for

an optimal effect.

• For extra long life of the curls, you can apply a light stiffener in the hair before rolling in the rollers.
• Remove the rollers by taking the ends carefully between thumb and forefinger and rolling them out of the hair. Now reset the curl into the shaped model with the fingers and allow it to cool for a moment. This provides an optimal result. After the hair has cooled, you can bring the hair into the desired model with a rough brush or comb and/or with the fingers.
• Disconnect the plug from the socket outlet when all rollers have been used.

Important!

The rollers are hot, avoid touching with the skin. Ensure that there is a roller on all irons during heating.
