How to Use

Basic Drying Techniques

• Gently towel dry hair to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing hair with towel – this creates split ends and frizziness. Detangle hair with a wide-toothed comb.
• Be sure dryer is turned off. Plug dryer into an electrical outlet.
• Set dryer to the high setting. Remove some of the additional moisture from your hair by briskly blow drying it all over, using your fingers to "comb" through hair.
• When hair is almost dry, lower the heat and speed setting and begin to style.
• Divide hair into manageable sections. Begin at the nape of your neck and brush hair, following the movement of the brush with the dryer. Continue working your way up your scalp, then to the sides and the front, drying small sections at a time.
• When finished unplug the unit.

Cool Shot:
The Cool Shot sets the style by blowing a cool stream of air. Press and hold cool shot button to set style. Release button to return to warm air flow.

For straight, smooth hair
Use a large, round brush or paddle brush to brush hair from underneath. Pull hair down until the hair is fully extended and taut. Run the dryer with concentrator slowly down the length of the hair several times until dry. Repeat with all sections of hair until it is completely dried.

For curly hair
Use dryer on a low heat and speed setting and move it quickly about your head. As you dry your hair, scrunch it with your favorite styling product or twirl strands of hair around your fingers to add definition.

Hair Care Tips

• Keep the dryer about 8 inches away from your head to avoid burning scalp or damaging hair.
• Always keep the dryer pointed down the hair shaft to smooth the cuticle and create a silky, shiny style.
• To help prevent heat damage and add shine, spritz damp hair with heat protection spray before blow drying.
• To create a style with lots of body, apply volumizing mousse to towel-dried hair. Distribute it evenly from roots to ends, then blow dry as usual. Hair will be soft, shiny and full of volume.
