You press a button to set the temperature (instructions included).  Wait about 10 seconds.  While waiting, put on the heat-proof glove (included) on your non-dominant hand.  Divide your hair in half along your part and clip (clips included).  Then divide the half you will start with in half top to bottom and clip the top half.  Simply brush through your hair at a slow pace.  I count to 5 to make it through one section of hair and repeat as needed.  My hair is naturally wavy, not curly, so you may need to make multiple passes.  The great thing is that you can grab the hair and hold with the gloved hand immediately and not burn your fingers.  Also, the black tips aren't hot so you don't hit your ear tips or your scalp.  Only the blue part gets hot.  Repeat through the remaining 3 sections of hair.  It takes me about 10 minutes to get hair as straight as with an iron but without the damage and burns to my hands/face/ears.  I immediately bought another one for a family member after using this one.
