The ceramic-coated surface also helps
smooth down flyaways and frizzies while
curling. As you wind each strand around the
barrel, it evenly distributes heat so that the
style you create has a salon-perfect, silky
smooth, shining finish. Hair slips right off the
barrel after it's curled as well.
The ceramic technology is a pleasure to
work with and makes styling your hair easier
and the results more professional.
CURLING BASICS
1. Be sure the locking mechanism on cool tip is
locked to keep barrel closed while curling.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each
section before winding. Pressing the auto-
matic curl release, place curling iron midway
up the hair section, then spread hair evenly
between spoon and barrel. Release automat-
ic curl release to hold hair in place. Gently
slide curling iron down to hair ends. To avoid
crimped ends, make sure they are securely
wound under the spoon in the direction of
the desired curl. Remember, always place
the spoon above the hair strand when mak-
ing a curl you want rolled under; place the
spoon under the hair strand when making a
flip style.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it
curled, being careful not to let the iron touch
the scalp. Hold in place for 8-12 seconds
depending on the texture and length of your
hair. For tighter, bouncier curls, roll less hair.
For looser, free-flowing curls, roll more hair.
4. When finished, unwind the hair and press
the automatic curl release. To set the curl, do
not comb or brush through hair until it cools.
