standards of engineering provide you with a
Uniform Heat Recovery System that maintains
the iron at constant temperatures.
There is a constant flow of power to ensure
that heat is continuously delivered for optimal
styling results, unlike other units which lose
heat during use. This provides consistent styl-
ing power so that every strand of your hair is
set with the same level of heat and comes out
the same way for a perfect finish.
