Preparing for use
Washing your hair
Everybody wants shiny and beautiful hair. A good hair-washing routine can
help to achieve this.
1 Wet your hair thoroughly for 0-60 seconds.
 Pour some shampoo into the palm of your hand. Spread it between
your hands and distribute it evenly through the hair.
 Gently massage your hair and scalp. Do not rough up the hair or
pull up long hair onto the scalp, as this may cause tangles.
 Massage your scalp with your fingertips. This stimulates blood
circulation and is gentler to the hair cuticles.
5 Rinse your hair thoroughly, as poor rinsing can result in dull hair.
Finish with a cold rinse for extra shine.
Drying your hair
To get super-smooth results, it is essential to prepare your hair for
straightening. Dry your hair with a hairdryer until it is dry or almost dry
to ensure a professional, smooth finish.
