What is Nika Ionic Curve Styler?

The Nika Ionic Curve Styler is a professional NIKA flat iron with a curved body and tourmaline-coated ceramic plates, made to create sleek straight looks, soft waves and defined curls with one tool, in the salon and at home. The digital temperature adjusts from 50 to 230 °C, and positive-ion technology helps leave the hair softer, shinier and less frizzy. In the salon it is also the flat iron for the smoothing step of the NIKA Fairy Silk treatments.

How to use Nika Ionic Curve Styler

1. Place the flat iron on a heat-resistant surface and plug it in.
2. Switch it on, choose °C or °F and set the temperature: lower settings for fine or delicate hair, higher settings for thick or curly hair.
3. Wait until the LED display shows that the set temperature has been reached.
4. Apply a heat protectant to clean, completely dry hair and divide the hair into sections with clips, starting at the nape and moving to the sides and the front.
5. For a straight look, glide the iron slowly and steadily from roots to ends without stopping on the hair. For waves or curls, rotate the curved body half a turn while gliding down the strand.
6. After styling, switch the iron off, unplug it and let it cool on a heat-resistant surface.

Care and maintenance

Unplug the iron and let it cool before cleaning. Wipe the plates with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove styling residue; abrasive cleaners and sharp objects damage the coating. Store the iron in a dry place with the cord loosely coiled, and check the cord regularly: a damaged cord must not be used.
