Diffuser Diffuseur This new diffuser has been especially developed for use in both curly and straight hair. The diffuser enables you to dry curled hair so that the curls keep their bounce and shape. You can also use this attachment to add volume to the hair close to the scalp. Adding volume to the hair close to the scalp: Insert the pins into the hair until they touch the scalp. The best results are obtained if you start at the lower part of the head and move slowly upwards, always making the rotating movements. This special diffuser brings the warm air evenly to the scalp. The lower section of the hair is dried directly by warm air whirling from close to the skin. Curled hair: For hair with curls or waves hold the diffuser at 10-15 cm distance from the head to let the hair dry gradually. While this happens you can model your hair with your free hand or with a coarse-toothed comb. When using you hand, you can best knead the hair to model the curls and waves while drying. Doing so you prevent the curls from dropping out or becoming fuzzy. Long hair: You can dry long hair by stretching it on the diffusor.
