BASIC HAIR CARE INSTRUCTIONS

For optimal results, shampoo and condition your hair, then dry your hair thoroughly and make sure that it is tangle free prior to straightening. Note: This Galaxy Straightener is not suitable for use on synthetic wigs or hair extensions.

AUTOMATIC WORLDWIDE VOLTAGE

The Galaxy Straightener features automatic voltage adjustment for international use. Plug the unit into any domestic power outlet and it will adjust automatically to the voltage being supplied. Note: Some countries will require the use of a plug adaptor that is not included with your straightener.

HOW TO USE YOUR REMINGTON® GALAXY STRAIGHTENER
  • Before use, ensure the hair is clean, dry and tangle-free.
  • Section the hair prior to styling. Style the lower layers first.
  • Plug the product into the mains power supply, and move the On/off switch into the “On” position until you see the on indicator light begin to flash.
  • The indicator light will continue to flash until the straightener has heated up. The straightener will be ready to use in 30 seconds.
  • Take extra care when using the straightener, as it can get very hot. Ensure you test the straightener on a small section of hair first.
  • To switch your straightener off, move the On/off switch into the “Off” position.
To Straighten Your Hair
  •  To make styling easier, part the hair either in the middle or to the side and use clips to section your hair, top, sides and back.
  • You may need to comb through your hair before straightening to ensure that it is tangle free.
  • Start at the nape of the neck and straighten the underneath sections of hair first. When the underneath sections of hair are complete, move to the next layers, finishing with the hair around the part line.
  • Take about a 5 cm section of hair and pull taut, and down and away from the scalp. Holding the straightener with the other hand, start at the roots and clamp the hair firmly between the plates.
  • Firmly holding the plates together, run the straightener down through the entire length of the section of hair from roots to ends, in one smooth stroke.
  • Repeat on the same section of hair if it needs extra straightening.
  • Repeat until the desired amount of straightening has been achieved.
To Curl Your Hair
  •  Section your hair as above.
  • Take about a 5cm section of hair and firmly grip it between the plates, close to the roots. Note: The smaller the section the tighter the curl.
  • Keeping tension firm gently rotate the straightener 180º whilst pulling through the length of the hair section.
  • Make sure to keep rotating the straightener.·
  • Remove the straightener and holding the hair length, allow the curl to spring into shape.

MAINTENANCE

This straightener is designed for household use and is virtually maintenance free. If cleaning becomes necessary, disconnect the straightener from the power outlet, allow it to cool, and then wipe the exterior surface with a soft damp cloth. Do not immerse the appliance in any liquid. Do not use an abrasive cleaning fluid or material to clean the ceramic plates as this will scratch the surface.

STORAGE

When not in use, always unplug the straightener from the power outlet. Allow the straightener to cool and store out of the reach of children in a safe dry place. Never wrap the power cord around the straightener as this will cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Handle the cord carefully for long life and avoid jerking, twisting or straining especially at the power plug and straightener connections. If the cord becomes twisted in use, periodically straighten it. Store your straightener with the plates locked. This will ensure that the plates are protected and prevented from being easily scratched.

Immediately cease using this product if the power cordshows any signs of damage.This product conforms to radio frequency interference requirements.
