Key Features

Unique steam vent and channel design:

Unique steam vents and channels allow this styler to be safely used on wet or dry hair. The channels extract moisture from damp hair and allow steam to escape through the vents,drying hair and sealing the cuticle at the same time.Creates salon straight,shiny hair in less time,with less damage.

Display:

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) indicates the heat setting numerically and with a circle of bars. A steam icon appears when you have selected a setting appropriate for use on wet hair ??? settings of 16 and higher.

Automatic shutoff:

This styler is equipped with automatic shutoff.This safety feature turns the unit off after 60 minutes,in case you accidentally leave it on after styling your hair. Before turning itself off the LCD will flash for 10 seconds,giving you the chance to stop the shutoff process.While the LCD is flashing, simply press the +/- button to use the styler for another 45 minutes. If no button is

pressed,the unit will turn itself off

when the LCD stops blinking.

This appliance contains a special electronic circuit that automatically converts it for worldwide usage ??? from 100 to 240 volts AC,50 to 60 Hz.Just plug it into the local outlet and use it as normal; the styler will automatically adjust to the local current.
