RECOMMENDATIONS

Choose lower speeds and temperature settings to put the finishing touches on the style or to dry and style hair which is delicate, colour-treated, or permanent waved.

Use high heat only when the hair is wet, or you may burn the hair or the scalp. Reduce the temperature as the hair dries.
