Select the C-Shells you want to use. The large and small C-Shells are mostly interchangeable, however you may want to use small C-Shells on bangs and around face. Make sure all 10 C-Shells are secure on Thermal Base and Thermal Base is plugged in and the lid is open. The lid should remain open during use and while the base is cooling after use. TopStyler Quick Start Guide Powering TopStyler On/Off 1. Plug in your TopStyler. You will see a Red status indicator light. 2. Press the Orange Power Button to turn the heater ON. You will see a Blinking Green status indicator light as the heater begins heating your C-Shells (approx. 6 Minutes). 3. When the status indicator light turns Solid Green your C-Shells are heated and ready for use. 4. To turn your TopStyler OFF, press the Orange Power Button again. The status indicator light will turn Red and the heaters will turn off. 4
As a safety precaution your TopStyler s heater will automatically shut-off after 45 minutes. If your style requires more than 10 C-Shells, simply put another C-Shell on the Thermal Base as you remove each hot one. The new C-Shells need only 4½ minutes to heat. Start with clean, dry and detangled hair. Normal styling products can be used before and after to set your style. Section your hair and wrap each section into clean, smooth curls around your finger(s) or around the split handle of your EZ Wrap Styling Comb. (see enclosed diagram or user manual for more detailed instructions.) Place C-Shell over the finger curl you just formed. Once your C-Shells are in place on your sectioned curls, allow them to cool for 1 to 10 minutes, depending upon desired result. Use more cooling time for longer hold. As with any hot styling tool, the style will change depending on how long you leave the C-Shells in. Have fun and experiment. You can do no wrong. Once the C-Shells have cooled as much as you like, remove them from your sections and allow hair to drop. Your hair can then be loosened with fingers for a gorgeous natural look, or brushed out for more glamorous body. 5
The Basics 1. Section and Spray 2. Wrap 3. Pinch and Slide 4. Clip and Set 5. Cool and Remove 6
1. Section and Spray Using your EZ Wrap Comb, detangle all hair then gather a section of hair with fingers or with the split handle of the comb. The section can vary in size depending on the look you want. Smaller sections give you a more defined look, while larger sections give you a more natural loose wave look. Spray (optional): To help set the style, the section of hair can be spritzed with a thermal setting spray or professional quality finishing spray before adding a C-Shell. 7
2. Wrap Hair can be wrapped into a curl using either the split handle of the EZ Wrap Styling Comb or fingers. 8
3. Pinch and Slide Once the section is fully wrapped into a finger curl with the fingers or comb, pinch the curl with thumb and forefinger of your free hand making sure to keep hold of the ends of the hair. Hold the curl in place then slide your fingers out. 9
Finger Curl Here is an example of a clean, well executed finger curl. Notice the hair ends are pinched in place with the curl. Practice makes perfect! 10
4. Clip While holding the curl you just made, clip the C- Shell onto your formed curl. As the C-Shell is applied, you can pull your thumb and forefinger out. Incorrect placement of a C-Shell. Do not crush the curl. The C-Shells are hot! Use caution when handling. As with any hot tool there is risk of burn. If you experience discomfort, remove C-Shell immediately. 11
5. Cool and Remove Allow C-Shells to cool in place on the head to set the style. This is an example of how the C-Shells can be placed on the head. Place them wherever you want curl, more body and volume. Depending on the amount of definition you want, and your hair type, keep the C-Shells in place on your finger curl for 1-10 minutes. The longer you allow the C-Shells to cool, the longer your style will hold. 12
Finishing Tips You can easily finish the curls by gently running your fingers through the curls. For a more formal look, gently brush the curls out with a brush. 13
Finger Curls and Wraps Express yourself. Create a variety of looks using different techniques. Have fun and experiment. You really can t make a mistake. Finger Wraps Finger Twists 1-2 Wrap 1-2-3 Wrap Figure 8 Wrap Funky Finger Wave 14
Finger Wraps 1 Finger Wrap This wrap is achieved by loosely wrapping the hair around the index finger (or any finger depending on what size curl you want). The result is similar to a curl you would get with a small curling iron, but without the barrel marks and creases. 2 Finger Wrap or 3 Finger Wrap This is a wrap using 2 or 3 fingers. The result is a loose, bouncy curl that can also be loosened into a fun, natural wave. 15
Finger Twists 1. 2. 1 or 2 Finger Twist Twist the section of hair then wrap it around 1 or 2 fingers. The result is an edgy, contemporary look. 16
1-2 Wrap 1. 2. 1-2 Wrap Begin by wrapping hair around one finger then two fingers. This will give amazing lift at the roots and a more natural wave/curl on the ends. 17
1-2-3 Wrap 1. 2. 3. 1-2-3 Wrap Begin by wrapping the same section of hair around one finger, then two, then three. This will give lift at the root with a beautiful erratic wave on the mid-section and ends. 18

To get the most out of your TopStyler, learn how to direct your curls for maximum control.
Directional Wrapping The direction you wrap the finger curl also determines the type of look you will achieve. Always wrap hair in the direction you want it to move and flow. (When possible, allow the C-Shell to lay on the head in the direction you made the wrap.) Forward Wrap Backward Wrap Upward Wrap Downward Wrap 22
Forward and Backward Wraps Forward Wrap holding fingers vertically and wrapping hair in towards your face will frame the face. Backward Wrap holding fingers vertically and wrapping hair away from your face will push hair out and away from your face. 23
Upward and Downward Wraps Upward Wrap wrapping hair under your finger first then over the top of the finger will result in a fun, informal flip look. Downward Wrap wrapping over the finger first, then go under the finger to achieve a formal Classic Wave or S-Pattern style. 24
Special Wraps for Short Hair (3-6 Inches) 1 Finger Wrap with Large Section Gives hair a more finished look with lots of body and movement.

Two popular spot wraps are at the Crown for that bump of volume, or at the Temples to give body on the sides of the head. All-Over Volume Twist a section then wrap into a finger curl. The result is a fun, funky texture. NOTE: These wraps can also be done on hair that is any length. All of these looks can be mixed and matched to make up your own fun style! All of these wraps can be done using larger and smaller sections of hair. Larger sections used will result in a more natural look, and smaller sections will give a more defined style. It is easy to achieve 4 different looks with just one simple wrap. The variables are: 1. With or without styling product 2. Direction of Wrap 3. Length of cooling time allowed for the C-Shells 4.
