hair, has a regenerating effect and makes it softer and
easier to comb, with greater volume and shine.
No electrostatic charge or “fly away”
Negatively charged ions help to reduce static electricity,
the “fly away” effect and unwanted frizzles.
Important: never leave the appliance unattended when
it is turned on.
OPERATING TIPS
• Recommended temperatures:
up to 150°C for fine, straight and coloured hair
up to 180°C for fine, wavy hair
up to 230°C for thick, curly hair
• Hair that has just been washed and dried can be
styled better.
• The first few times you use this unit it is advisable to
practice on small areas of your hair.
This appliance is designed to smooth, straighten and
style your hair, leaving shinier. To use the appliance
proceed as follows: let the appliance heat until it reaches
the desired temperature. Separate your hair into sections
about 5 cm wide. Put one section at a time between the
smoothing irons and close the irons by exerting force on
the handles.
To obtain a straightening effect: slide the irons slowly
through your hair from the roots to the ends (fig.4). If
necessary repeat this operation until the required effect
is created.
To obtain tight or loose curls proceed as shown in
figures 5, 6, 7.
Let your hair cool before combing or brushing.
Please note: prolonged and repeated use of the appliance
at high temperatures may result in a long-term
straightened effect. This means each individual hair will
struggle to regain its natural wave.
X’BRUSH ACCESSORY
(for models
supplied with this accessory)
The X’Brush accessory was designed to achieve 3
results in a single action (fig. 3):
1. DETANGLING: the bristles detangle and guide the hair
between the plates for gentler, quicker straightening.
2. PERFECT STRAIGHTENING, thanks to the 5 layers of
tourmaline ceramic coating the plates.
3. MAXIMUM SHINE: the bristles stroke the hair while it
is still warm, smoothing the cuticles and eliminating
excess heat to straighten kinks.
Fit the accessory to the appliance as illustrated in fig. 2.
Proceed as illustrated in fig. 3 and 4.
Important: replace the accessory after use so that the
bristles are not crushed or bent, as their shape may be
altered.
Thermocap accessory
(for models
supplied with this accessory)
Protective band
(for models supplied
with this accessory)
The Thermocap accessory (fig. 1, ref. 9) and the
protective band (fig. 1, ref. 10) provide heat protection,
for use when closing the straightening plates (fig. 1, ref.
2) as the appliance is being put away after use.
