Crimps

1 Connect the crimping/straightening attachment with crimping
plates to the handle (fig. 8).
2 Take a lock of hair (max. 5 to 6 cm wide), open the attachment
by pressing the lever and place the lock between the plates of the
crimping/straightening attachment. Start crimping at the roots
(fig. 9).
3 Keep the plates locked for 5 to 10 seconds.
4 Open the attachment by pressing the lever and place a lower
section of the same lock of hair between the plates. Make sure
there is an overlap. Repeat this process until you have reached
the end of the lock.
5 Let the crimps cool down. Do not brush or comb the crimps, as
this would ruin them.
The waves, curls and crimps will disappear if your hair gets wet (for
instance when you wash it). You can also use the straightening plates to
make them disappear.

Sleek look

1 Open the crimping/straightening attachment. Remove the plates
one by one by grabbing their cool tips and pulling them out of
the attachment (fig. 10).
2 Turn the plates round and slide them back into the attachment
(fig. 11).
Make sure that the edges of the plates are inserted properly into the
grooves.
3 You have now turned the crimping attachment into a
straightening attachment. Connect the attachment to the handle
and follow the same procedure as for creating crimps. You can
also straighten the hair by slowly sliding the straightening
attachment down the lock.
