SuperSonicTM Features · stronger motor · more powerful fan design · larger air intake area · fast air concentrator · 5 ionic ports · ceramic radiant heat technology · full size design · 1875 watts · 3 heat settings · 2 speed settings · cool shot · easy-to-clean grille · 6-foot cord with hang loop Helical Fan Design If you look down through the top of the dryer, you will see that the fan is not centered within the top grille area. This is a natural part of the design and it maximizes flow efficiency. 5x Ionic 1875 Watts Product Features Air Intake Grille External Ionic Ports Cool Shot 3 Heats 2 Speeds Ceramic Coated Grille 6-Foot Cord with Hang Loop SuperSonicTM Dryer Technology Wet hair holds 90% of its moisture in its inner layer. Air that is too hot causes hair's outer layer to seal shut ­ trapping water inside and slowing down the drying process. The SuperSonicTM dryer generates more airflow than other dryers so it can use less heat to dry hair more quickly. Fast Air Concentrator Exclusive vent design pulls in more air for faster precision styling. 5 Ionic ports for more ionic conditioning Negative ions neutralize the positive ions that cause static and frizzies. Ceramic Radiant Heat Technology Ceramic emits far-infrared, radiant heat to help dry water molecules inside the hair strand. This fast and efficient process helps prevent heat damage for less frizz and more shine. No matter what style you ultimately achieve with this dryer and a brush (your hairdresser may recommend a particular one), the first step is to remove most of the moisture from your hair. Start by blotting hair dry with a towel (rubbing creates tangles). COOL SHOT Once you fully dry your hair and fashion the style, press the Cool Shot button to "set" the style. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS 1. Do not wrap cord around dryer. BEGIN TO SHAPE With a wide-tooth comb, start at the nape of your neck and comb out small sections of hair at a time. Put the dryer on HIGH air speed and HIGH heat, and rotate nozzle quickly all over head, fluffing up hair with fingers. Starting at nape of neck and moving up, brush hair from scalp out to the ends, always following movement of brush with dryer (keep dryer 8 inches from scalp). Then quickly do the same thing, starting from the front and sides of head down to the nape, brushing in the direction of your hair from scalp out to the ends.
