2. Brush Sleeve Attachment
• For gentler curls or a gentler style,
use the slip-on brush with the
curling tong. Make sure the barrel
is cool. Slide the brush over the
barrel. Take up a section of hair
and roll around the brush, hold
for about 15 seconds and gently
unroll. Allow your hair to cool
before combing or brushing.

section of hair lightly with
hairspray before working with it.

4. Ceramic-coated straighte-
ning/crimping plates (Fig. 3)
The BaByliss ceramic-coated
straightener and crimper
attachment is an original styling
tool that transforms into either
crimper or straighteners with a
simple ip of a switch. Thanks to
this 2-in-1 attachment, it is now
possible to create all kinds of
styles.
T h e C e r am i c co a t in g of t h e B a B y li s s
heating plates provides a smooth,
even surface. Glide through the
hair is improved by 30%. The hair
is straight, silky and shiny.
Use of the crimping plates
• Work with dry hair. Take up a
section of hair, place it between
the plates and then close the
plates. Hold the unit closed for
about 15 seconds. Release, and
then take up the next part of the
section using the last wave as
a guide. Always work from the
roots to the tips.
• For a more marked eect, rst
mist the section with hairspray
and hold the unit closed for a
little longer.
• Trick: for best results, work on
straight hair or hair that has rst
been straightened.
Use of straightening plates
• Use the straighteners on dry
hair taking up small sections at
a time. Holding the hair taut and
beginning at the roots, slide the
straighteners the length of the
hair. Work smoothly so as to avoid
creating a ridge in the middle of
the section.
• For short, curly styles, use a spray
gel.
• To soften and tame curly hair, use
the straighteners on the lengths
of the hair only, leaving the hair
curly at the roots to keep body
and volume. For this kind of
hairstyle, use the straighteners
following the shape of the style.
