Styling your hair
This wave iron was designed for creating
waves in medium to long hair.
Proceed as follows:
● Comb the hair and divide it into even, lat
strands about 2 to 3 cm wide.
● Make sure that adjacent strands are
slightly offset.
● Attach the upper strands to the top of the
head with hair clips; start the styling proc-
ess with the lower strands (Fig. 1).
● Insert a strand of hair at the upper third
into the gap in the heating element. For
easier threading, make sure that you hold
the wave iron with the longer end of the
heating element facing down (Fig. 2).
● Hold the strand of hair at its end and wrap
it once around the tongs of the heating
element in a igure-eight (Fig. 3).
● Push the wave iron towards the hair roots
(Fig. 4).
● Weave the rest of the strand around in a
igure-eight shape.
● Treat the woven strand of hair for
approximately six seconds; keep holding
the strand at the tip (Fig. 5).
● Now pull the strand sideways from the
wave iron (Figures 6 and 7).
● Put the wave in its proper position right
away, keep it in place with a hair clip and
let it cool.
● Treat all strands in the same manner.
● When all strands have been treated, style
the hair with a large-toothed comb or with
your ingers.
