I have a Jilbere de Paris Palladium Ceramic Curling Iron 1 1/2 what are the heats for the 5 different hairs?>

Try putting styling gel or hairspray that is heat resistant in your hair first before curling it. but make sure products are for heat and styling first so it wont burn your hair! I have very fine hair that is straight as an arrow, and very hard to curl so before i use any curlers or curling irons, i put styling gel or mousse in it first then once I brush it out spray it again to hold the style

Delilah, if it is a new curling iron and you plug it into a known good working outlet and does not heat up, it is defective. Return it to store for replacement or refund. If it is older and out of warranty, it is probably burnt out limit switch or may need rewired with new plug and cord(probably not cost effective, unless you can test and change)
Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

Hair too strong

If you know anything about electronics you could probably fix it. Those kinds of devices have a fusable link in series with the heater and when they exceed their rated temperature then open up to keep things from starting a fire. Typically you can purchase them at a place like Radio Shack if you can determine the temperature and current rating. Good luck.

the glove is a heat protective styling glove so you can touch your hair without burning your hand. It is pretty easy to burn yourself because it is so hot. try watching the TiGi videos on YouTube. For a more wavy look I keep my hair around the curler for a couple of seconds and then I run my fingers through.

The main types of hair irons are;

Curling irons - they create a curl or wave in the hair

Straightening irons - flatten or straighten the hair

Crimping irons - create a look similar to crimps left after braids are removed.

I recommend to get a better hair straightener, I bought mine at safrons it's the Karmin G3 Salon Pro with ceramic tourmaline plates to avoid hair damages, it heats up really quick and leave my hair soft, shiny and super straight, hope this helps.

well my flat iron dosnt have that pronlem but in the middle of the plates it has a gap in it .....did yours have a gap in the middle of the plates??
