Hot/Cold Alternating Mode

Temperature is critical for shiny hair. Hot/Cold Alternating Mode automatically switches between warm and cool air, warming the hair while blowing out curls and then cooling it with cool air to keep the hair straight. Removing waves and straightening the surface of the hair leaves it lustrous.

How to use
Select “HIGH,” or “MEDIUM” with the airflow switching button, and direct the warm air towards your hair, moving the dryer so that all your hair is reached. When it is about 90% dry, select “Hot/Cold Mark (Arrow)” with the air heat switching button.

Intensive Hair Tip Care Mode

Intensive Hair Tip Care Mode automatically detects the ambient temperature with a sensor and alternates between hot and cold airflow at the right intervals and air volume to provide the perfect finish for the ends of your hair. The weak flow of air is easy to direct, enabling you to provide intensive care for all of the ends.

How to use
Select “LOW” with the airflow switching button, and “Hot/Cold Mark (Arrow)” with the air heat switching button.

How to use
Use the air heat switching button to select “SCALP”.
