SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s well maintained. Always treat hair right with superior quality
shampoos, conditioners, and finishing products.
The Hair DesignerTM by Conair® is an innovative, revolutionary hot air styler that has effectively eliminated the need for
a hair brush and brought salon quality results to your home.
DRYING/STRAIGHTENING BASICS
1. Shampoo and condition hair with products of your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel-dry hair to remove excess moisture.
Select a small section of hair and pass the hot air styler through it to smooth out curls and help control frizz. Start at a
lower setting and direct hot air through a section of hair at a time. Direct air flow at hair, not scalp. Clouds of negatively
charged ions will help to reduce static electricity, control frizzy flyaways and contribute to your hair’s shine.
2. Keep hot air styler's air intake vents unobstructed and free from hair while drying.
3. To avoid overdrying, do not concentrate heat on any one section for any extended length of time. Keep hot air styler
moving as you style.

temperature setting, then finish styling on cool setting to close hair shaft and lock in style.
