Introduction

The new Philips SalonStraight DUO is specially designed to give you

perfect straight results and to prevent hair damage at the same time.

That’s because this straightener has two sets of plates next to each other,

which give the hair a dual treatment in one single stroke. First, the ceramic

straightening plates with professional styling temperatures glide over the

hair to give perfect results. Immediately after that, the white marble

protection plates softly glide over the hair to neutralise damaging excess

heat within seconds.

Preparing for use

Washing

The straightener gives the best results on well-washed hair.We advise you

to follow the washing tips below:

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

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

straightening. Dry you 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 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.

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

adds shine to the hair.

Note: Philips SalonPro 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.

Using the appliance

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

Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with

care.

Always follow the instructions below to select the right heat setting for

your hair type:

Always select a low heat setting when you use the straightener for

the rst time.

For coarse, curly or hard-to-straighten hair, select a heat setting

between 13 and 25 (155°C-210°C).

For ne, medium-textured or softly waved hair, select a heat setting

between 1 and 12 (115°C-150°C).

1 Insert the plug into the wall socket.

2 Set the on/off switch to ‘on’.

Thestraighteningplatesheatuprapidlyandarereadyforuse

within 60 seconds.

Some condensation may develop on the inside of the window near the

marbleplate.Thisisnormalanddoesnotaffecttheperformanceofthe

appliance.

3 Set the heat setting selector to the preferred heat setting (1-

25) (Fig. 2).

ENGLISH 9

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

smooth. (Fig. 3)

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

one section.

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

underneath rst, followed by the top area.

5 Takeasectionthatisapproximately3-4cmwide.

6 Hold the straightener in such a way that the marble protection

plates point upward and the hot straightening plates point

downwards (Fig. 4).

Look at the symbol on the appliance. (Fig. 5)

If the hot straightening plates point in the wrong direction, turn the

appliance around.When you slide the straightener down the hair, the hot

straightening plates must touch the hair before the marble protection

plates.

7 Pressthehandlesoftheappliancermlytogether.

8 Slide the straightener down the lock of hair in 5 seconds, from root

to hair end, without stopping (Fig. 6).

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

desired look.

10 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.
