Introduction

The Glam Shine Curler is our first curler with ionic care and titanium enriched barrel for gorgeously shiny curls and waves. Unique Curl Ready Indicator helps you create consistent curls all around and protects you from overheating.

  • Key Lock Function
    If no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds, the Key Lock is activated automatically and the key lock icon will be displayed ( 9 ). The first automatic activation after switching on the appliance is after 15 seconds. To unlock the appliance, press the ( 8 ) for 1 second.
  • Curl Ready Indicator
    A unique curl-ready indicator with choices of 8, 10, and 12 seconds lets you know when your curl is ready by giving a “beep” alert with no more hair overheating.
  • Ionic function
    The ions provide additional shine and reduce frizz when curling your hair. You may smell a special odor and hear a sizzling noise. It is common because they are caused by the ion generator.

Curl your hair

  1. Connect the plug to a power supply socket. Before you start curling, spray heat protectant on your dry hair for more protection.
  2. Press and hold the on/off button( 6 ) for one second to switch on the appliance. Select your desired temperature setting ( 8) and time setting (7 ) according to the table below:
    → The curler is ready for use when the temperature indication ( 9 ) stops blinking.
    Note: If you want to change the temperature or time setting during use, you might have to deactivate the key lock by pressing for 1 second.
  3. Brush to de-tangle your hair. Depending on your desired results, take a hair strand between 2cm and 4cm ( for tight curls take a thinner strand, for loose waves take a thicker strand ).
  4. Hold the curler horizontally and point it away from your head and face. Start at the widest point of the barrel ( 2 ), place the curler near the hair roots and wrap the hair around from root to tip.
  5.  Hold your hair tips at the cool tip ( 1 ) with your fingers and press the curl ready button ( 10 ). When you hear the “beep”, the time counting starts.
  6. When your curl is ready, you will hear a “beep” alert three times.
  7.  Release the hair tips and hair will fall off the barrel.
  8. Repeat steps 3-7 until all the hair is curled.
  9. To finish, break up the curls with your fingers and wind each smaller curl around your finger for extra definition.

After use:

  1. Switch off the appliance and unplug it.
  2. Place it on the resting stand (4 ) until it cools down.
  3. Remove hairs and dust from the barrel.
  4. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
  5. Keep it in a safe and dry place, free of dust. You can also hang it with the hanging loop (5 ).

Tips and Tricks

  • If this is your first time using a clipless curler, practice without switching on the device to get familiar with the handling.
  • The narrow end of the barrel creates small curls, while the broad end creates bigger curls or waves. You can use the whole length of the barrel, or you can choose to use just
    one area for a larger or smaller curl.
  • For a modern wave, start the curl at the level of your cheekbone. Also, leave the last few centimeters uncurled. Comb it through with your fingers or a brush.
  • This curler can also be used for creating volume at the hair roots. Hold a section of hair at 90º to the scalp. Place the barrel 1cm above the roots (avoid touching the scalp) and lay the strand onto the widest part of the barrel.
  • To create curls with modern fullness and bounce, twist your hair before wrapping it around the barrel so that it does not spread out flatly on the curler.
  • If your hair has a natural wave, you can use the curler on just a few of the top sections to enhance the curls all around.
  • For defined curls, do not brush your hair after curling. For a wavy, voluminous look, gently brush the curls out with a natural bristle brush. Start by brushing through the ends and work your way up.
  • When you have finished curling your hair, allow all the curls to fully cool down before continuing with styling.
