Ionic Technology

Many aspects of modern living, including air conditioning,
contact with man-made  bres and air pollution contribute to
a build-up of static electricity in the hair. Even brushing and
towel drying the hair, can increase these levels causing the
surface of the cuticle to become rough.
Consequently, hair may have a dull appearance. Also high
levels of static charge cause hair to become “ y-away” and
dif cult to style. The ion generator produces a stream of
negative ions which act to neutralise the static charge,
smoothing the scales on the cuticle for shiny, smooth and
manageable hair so you can achieve your desired style easily.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
General

• Towel dry and detangle the hair.

• There are 3 heat / 2 speed settings. Use a high heat/speed
setting for rough drying. Use the low heat/speed setting as
hair begins to dry and for styling and scrunch drying.

• Use the cool shot button on warm hair to “set” a curl or
wave.

• After use, switch off and unplug the appliance. Allow to cool
before storing away.

How to use the concentrator nozzle

The concentrator nozzle is great for straightening or styling
hair with a brush. Use the professional concentrator nozzle for
directing the air just where you want it. For additional control
use one of the lower settings and point the air- ow along the
surface of the hair to be dried.

How to use the diffuser

Diffuser drying gives you more control over your hair. It is kinder
and more gentle to your hair than conventional blow drying. It
gives diffused heat which is perfect for enhancing natural curls.
Tilt your head forward and aim the diffuser upwards so
that the warm air circulates freely through your hair. Use your
 ngers to lift the hair up from the roots. When dry, arrange
your hair as required for a casual, tousled look.

IMPORTANT

Only use the diffuser with your dryer on the lowest heat / speed
setting.

Cool shot button

Use the cool shot button on warm hair to set the wave or curl
in place for a really long lasting effect.

STYLING TIPS
Body & volume

To help create extra body and volume in the hair, tilt your head
forward so the hair is upside down when drying. Position the
air ow towards the roots for maximum lift. When hair is dry
brush in to desired style.

Straightening

To create a super straight look,  rst divide the hair into sections
then using a brush and the concentrator nozzle, hold hair taut
and let the brush glide down the hair as you dry.
