Getting to know your device

The beurer HS 20 Cordless hair straightener can be used to quickly and gently straighten and style hair.

The hair straightener glides through hair particularly smoothly thanks to the ceramic-coated hot plates with tourmaline crystals. Tourmaline crystals are semi-precious stones that release negative ions when heated, meaning they prevent static charging of the hair, thereby enabling smooth hair with a silky shine. The cordless hair straightener has a lithium-ion battery, and can be used cable-free for up to 30 minutes. This makes the Cordless hair straightener the perfect travel companion for when you're out and about.

Thanks to built-in fast heating, this cordless hair straightener is ready to use in just a few minutes. Three variable temperature settings (approx. 160–200°C) facilitate professional styling of different hair types. The LED readiness indicator flashes while the device heats up. When the hot plates have reached the required temperature, the LED readiness indicator lights up steadily.
