GETTING STARTED
The iron's 25 temperature settings and
Instant Heat technology provide styling
versatility for all hair types. If you have fine
hair, a low temperature will provide the best
results. If you have thick, wavy or hard-to-
straighten hair, keep the heat setting on
high. You can vary the iron's temperature
according to your particular need!
