CURLING BASIC: Plug the curling iron cord into any household outlet (120/240V). Press the ON button. The iron will heat up very quickly. To turn off, press the OFF button (light will go off). Never leave your curling iron on and unattended. However, should you fail to turn the curling iron off, it will shut itself off automatically within 60 minutes at 60 Hz, 72 minutes at 50 Hz. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each section before winding. Pressing the automatic curl release, place curling iron midway up the hair section, then spread hair evenly between spoon and barrel. Release automatic 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 making a curl you want rolled under; place the spoon under the hair strand when creating a flip style. 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 to 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. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and press the automatic curl release. To set the curl, do not comb or brush curls until cool.
