Overview

The Remington Salon Stylist Hair Dryer (AC4000AU) is a professional drying kit designed for household use, offering a powerful and efficient solution for various hair styling needs. This hair dryer is equipped with an AC motor, which provides superior high-velocity airflow, making it suitable for quick drying, straightening, creating natural wavy textures, and adding lift and volume to hair. The device comes with several attachments, including a professional slimline concentrator, a diffuser, and a paddle brush, enhancing its versatility for different styles and hair types.

Function Description

The primary function of the Remington Salon Stylist Hair Dryer is to dry and style hair using a combination of heat and airflow. It features a unique triple infusion coating on its air outlet grille, which combines Keratin, Argan, and Ceramic. This innovative coating ensures even heat distribution, contributing to strong, healthy, and shiny hair. Additionally, the hair dryer incorporates Ionic Conditioning technology, designed to provide 90% more ions for frizz-free shine, helping to achieve a smoother and more polished finish.

The hair dryer offers multiple settings to cater to diverse styling requirements. It includes three heat settings: low heat, medium heat, and high heat, allowing users to select the appropriate temperature for their hair type and desired style. Complementing the heat settings are three speed settings: off, low speed, and high speed, which control the intensity of the airflow. This combination of heat and speed options provides precise control over the drying and styling process.

A notable feature is the "Cool Shot" button. This true cool shot function is essential for setting hairstyles. By pressing and holding the cool shot button, a rapid burst of cool air is delivered, effectively locking in the style once the hair has been shaped. This helps to ensure longer-lasting results and adds a professional touch to home styling.

The included attachments further expand the hair dryer's functionality. The professional slimline concentrator is ideal for precision drying and straightening, directing airflow to specific sections of hair to minimize frizz and achieve sleek results. The diffuser is designed for gentle drying, particularly beneficial for naturally curly, permed, or fine hair, as it helps to maintain the hair's natural texture and can be used to boost volume without disturbing the curl pattern. The paddle brush assists in detangling and smoothing hair during the drying process, making it easier to manage and style.

Usage Features

Before using the hair dryer, it is recommended to shampoo and condition the hair, then towel dry to remove excess moisture for optimal results. The hair dryer is not suitable for use on synthetic wigs or hair extensions.

For quick drying, users should select the high heat and high speed settings. While drying, it is advised to roughly dry the hair, using a brush or hands to shake out excess moisture, and keep the hair dryer in constant motion to prevent heat concentration in one area.

When straightening, begin by selecting the high heat and high speed settings to roughly dry the hair. Once the hair is nearly dry, attach the concentrator nozzle. Reduce the heat and speed settings for more controlled styling. Section the hair according to thickness and start straightening the bottom layers first. Using a brush, follow the concentrator from above, slowly gliding down each section from roots to tips. After the bottom layers are straightened, proceed to the mid-section and complete by straightening the top layers.

To achieve a natural wavy texture, use the low heat and low speed settings. "Scrunch" sections of hair with fingers into the palm of the hand while directing airflow through the fingers. Once the desired effect is reached, use the cool shot on each section to hold the style. For added volume, leaning forward and drying the hair in an upside-down position is recommended.

For lift and volume, the hair dryer should be used on the low heat and low speed settings. Work from the roots of the hair, starting at the back of the head. Section the hair and use a brush to dry against the natural growth pattern of the hair. This technique helps to create lift at the roots, resulting in a voluminous style.

When styling with precision, set the hair dryer to low heat and low speed, and attach the concentrator nozzle. Section the hair and style using the brush, concentrating the airflow directly on the hair in the desired direction. For additional hold, the airflow can be held for 2-5 seconds on each section while curling under or over.

The diffuser is particularly useful for drying hair fast without blowing out the style, making it perfect for enhancing natural curls, perms, or fine hair, or for adding volume. When using the diffuser, it is crucial to always select the lowest heat setting to prevent damage to the attachment. To dry hair with the diffuser, begin at the roots and use circular motions, always moving in the same direction. Set the hair dryer to low heat and low speed. Continue drying, holding the hair dryer at a 90-degree angle from the scalp to lift the roots and create volume. Finish by drying the ends. To add more volume, tilt the head upside down and dry so that the roots fall away from the scalp, pointing the hair dryer at the roots with the diffuser on low heat and low speed, then continue the process to the ends.

The hair dryer is equipped with a thermostat that will automatically cycle 'OFF' if the temperature exceeds a comfortable level due to partially blocked air inlet or outlet openings. If the hair dryer stops during use, all switches should be turned off, and the device allowed to cool down, at which point the thermostat will automatically reset. Before resuming use, it is important to check that the air inlet and outlet openings are not blocked.

Maintenance Features

The Remington Salon Stylist Hair Dryer is designed for household use and is virtually maintenance-free, requiring no lubrication. To ensure peak product performance and longevity, regular cleaning of the air inlet filter is important.

To access the air inlet filter, twist the rear grille anti-clockwise and pull it away from the back of the hair dryer. This action releases the air inlet filter, which can then be cleaned using a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff, or hair accumulation.

To replace the filter and grille, align the three lugs on the rear grille with the three corresponding notches at the back of the hair dryer. Push and twist the grille in a clockwise direction until it locks securely into position. The exterior of the hair dryer can be cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth.

For storage, always unplug the hair dryer from the power outlet when not in use. Allow the hair dryer to cool completely before storing it in a safe, dry place, out of the reach of children. It is crucial to avoid wrapping the power cord around the hair dryer, as this can cause premature wear and breakage of the cord. The power cord should be handled carefully to prolong its life, avoiding jerking, twisting, or straining, especially at the plug connections. If the cord becomes twisted during use, it should be periodically straightened. The integrated hang loop can be used to store the hair dryer within convenient reach, ensuring it is hung in a location where water cannot be splashed onto it.

The power cord should be regularly checked for any signs of wear and tear. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agents, or similarly qualified persons to avoid a hazard. Immediate cessation of use is advised if the power cord shows any signs of damage. The appliance should never be left unattended when plugged into a power outlet. It is also important to keep hair away from the air inlet grille during use to prevent it from being drawn into the appliance.
