TEMPERATURE SETTING

perature settings allow adjusting the temperature of the heating surface to the structure and type of hair, which is to be styled.

Guidelines for selecting correct temperature:

Use lower temperature for soft, thin hair, and higher temperature for thicker and coarse hair.
- Start hair styling with lower temperature, check your hair and touch it; if more curling is required increase the temperature and try again to work out the correct temperature for your hair.

Too low temperature may not curl your hair or the result will not be long lasting; too high temperature may burn your hair.

It is advisable to have one hour break between attempts not to damage your hair.
