Overview

The BaByliss Keratin Shine Volume Airstyler, Model 2993U, is a versatile 1000W hot air styler designed to add volume, shape, and smoothness to various hairstyles. It incorporates keratin-infused ceramic technology and super ionic conditioners to deliver a smooth, shiny finish, promoting healthy-looking hair.

Function Description

This airstyler functions as a multi-purpose hair styling tool, combining the power of a hairdryer with the shaping capabilities of a brush. It utilizes hot air to dry hair while simultaneously styling it with interchangeable attachments. The keratin-infused ceramic barrels work to distribute heat evenly and protect hair, while the super ion generator releases negative ions to neutralize static charge, smooth the hair's cuticle, and enhance shine and manageability. The device offers two heat settings and a cool shot function, allowing users to customize the styling experience based on their hair type and desired look. The primary goal of the airstyler is to provide a salon-quality finish at home, focusing on volume, body, and a smooth, frizz-free appearance.

Usage Features

The BaByliss Keratin Shine Volume Airstyler comes with three interchangeable attachments, making it suitable for a wide range of styling needs. These include a 50mm thermal brush for creating dramatic volume, a 38mm thermal brush ideal for shorter styles, layers, and fringes, and a nozzle for precise styling.

To begin styling, users should first rough dry their hair to about 80% dryness, especially if they have long or thick hair, to remove excess moisture. For added volume during this initial drying phase, turning the head upside down is recommended. Once the hair is partially dry, an attachment can be secured onto the airstyler by aligning the small cut-out area behind the buttons and pushing it until it clicks into place. To remove an attachment, both buttons must be pressed and held while pulling the attachment away from the handle.

The airstyler features a slide switch with three positions: 'I' for low heat, 'II' for high heat, and '*' for the cool setting. Users can select the appropriate heat setting based on their hair type and the desired style. The low heat setting ('I') is suitable for cooler drying and less heat, making it ideal for shorter styles and finer hair. The high heat setting ('II') provides faster drying and more heat, recommended for long styles and thicker, coarser hair.

For creating maximum volume and body, one of the thermal brush heads should be used. The brush head is placed into the hair close to the roots and held for a few seconds before slowly moving the styler down the hair section. This technique helps to lift the hair at the roots, adding fullness. To create shape at the ends, the brush head is run from the root to the ends. As the brush reaches the end of the section, rotating it inward will achieve a turned-in style, while rotating it outward will create a flicked-out style.

Hair should be separated into manageable sections for effective styling. The brush head is placed under each section, as close to the roots as possible, and used to lift the hair while drying. The styler is then moved gently down through the hair, brushing as it dries. This process is repeated across all sections until the hair is dry and the desired style is achieved.

The cool setting ('*') is a crucial feature for setting the style and ensuring a long-lasting effect. Once styling is complete, switching to the cool position and brushing through the hair section with cool air helps to lock in the style.

After use, the airstyler should be switched off and unplugged from the socket. It is important to allow the appliance to cool completely before storing it away. The swivel cord enhances ease of use by preventing tangles during styling.

Maintenance Features

Proper cleaning and maintenance are essential to keep the BaByliss Keratin Shine Volume Airstyler in optimal condition and ensure its longevity.

General Care:

  • Cord Storage: Do not wrap the lead tightly around the appliance. Instead, coil the lead loosely by the side when storing to prevent damage.
  • Power Point Distance: Avoid using the appliance at a stretch from the power point, as this can strain the cord.
  • Unplugging: Always unplug the appliance after use.

Cleaning & Maintenance Steps:

  1. Cool Down: Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down completely.
  2. Rear Filter Access: To clean the rear filter, firmly pull the top of the filter towards you. This action will open the filter compartment.
  3. Filter Cleaning: Use a soft brush to clean any accumulated hair and other debris from the filter. This step is crucial for preventing overheating and maintaining efficient airflow.
  4. Filter Replacement: After cleaning, push the rear filter back into its original position until it is securely in place.
  5. Exterior Cleaning: To clean the outside of the appliance, wipe it with a damp cloth. Ensure that no water enters the appliance and that it is completely dry before its next use.

Safety Thermostat:

The airstyler is equipped with a safety thermostat. In the event of overheating, the appliance will either stop automatically or run hot and cold intermittently. If this occurs, switch the airstyler to the "0" position, unplug it, and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Before resuming use, ensure the rear filter is clear of any hair or debris. If the appliance continues to overheat after these steps, discontinue use immediately, switch off, unplug, and contact the Conair Customer Care Line for further assistance.

Regular maintenance, particularly cleaning the rear filter, is vital for the safe and efficient operation of the airstyler. This helps prevent the fan from pulling in hair, which could lead to overheating and potential damage to the appliance.
