Preparing for use

Washing your hair

Everybody wants shiny and beautiful hair. A good hair-washing routine can

help to achieve this.

1 Wet your hair thoroughly for 30-60 seconds.

2 Pour some shampoo into the palm of your hand. Spread it between

your hands and distribute it evenly through the hair.

3 Gently massage your hair and scalp. Do not rough up the hair or

pull up long hair onto the scalp, as this may cause tangles.

4 Massageyourscalpwithyourngertips.Thisstimulatesblood

circulation and is gentler to the hair cuticles.

5 Rinse your hair thoroughly, as poor rinsing can result in dull hair.

Finish with a cold rinse for extra shine.

Drying your hair

To get super-smooth results, it is essential to prepare your hair for

straightening. Dry your hair properly with a hairdryer to ensure a

professional, smooth nish.

1 After washing, squeeze excess water out of the hair with your

hands and then towel-dry the hair. Use a comb to disentangle the

hair gently from the roots to the tips.

2 Divide the hair into sections using clips. Start at the back.

3 Todryeachsection,pullastraighteningbrushdownthehairlength.

Follow the brush with the hairdryer, with its nozzle pointing

towards the hair ends.

4 Whenyouhavenisheddryingeachsection,setthehairdryerto

thecoolsettingforanalcoolshot.Thisclosesthecuticlesand

adds shine to the hair.

Tip: Philips Salon Pro hairdryers have a lower drying temperature and a

stronger airow than regular dryers. Thanks to this combination, they dry just

as quickly as regular hairdryers but in a gentler way.

Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in.

Always put the appliance on a heat-resistant surface when it is heating

up and when it is hot.

Straightening your hair

Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with

care.As with all straighteners that reach salon high temperatures, do not

use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair.

If you use the straightener incorrectly, you could overheat your hair

or even burn it.Always follow the steps below:

1 Put the plug in the wall socket.

2 Set the on/off switch to ‘on’.

The power-on light goes on.

3 Let the appliance heat up.

The plates heat up rapidly and are ready for use within 90 seconds.

4 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and

smooth. (Fig. 2)

Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not put too much hair in

one section.

Note: It is better to section off the crown area and to straighten the hair

underneath rst. Then straighten the top area.

5 Takeasectionthatisapprox.3-4cmwide.Placeitbetweenthe

straighteningplatesandpressthehandlesoftheappliancermly

together.

6 Slide the straightener down the length of the hair in a few seconds,

from root to hair end, without stopping to prevent

overheating (Fig. 3).

ENGLISH 9

7 Repeat this process after 20 seconds until you have achieved the

desired look.

8 Let your hair cool down. Do not comb or brush it before it has

cooled down, as this would ruin the hairstyle you have just created.

Cleaning

1 Make sure the appliance is switched off and unplugged.

2 Let the appliance cool down completely on a heat-resistant surface.

3 Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.

Storage

Never wind the mains cord round the appliance.

1 Make sure the appliance is switched off and unplugged.

2 Let the appliance cool down on a heat-resistant surface before you

store it.

3 Use the easy-lock system to lock the straightening plates together

before you store the appliance. (Fig. 4)

Environment

at the end of its life, but hand it in at an ofcial collection point for
