Release the stretchy band from around the bottom of the blinger hair stage (the bottom platform) and place it in the notch located on the top of the blinger tool.  This allows the blinger styling tool to be open and ready to use! 2. To load the rhinestones, first open the loading area by pushing down on the lip while pulling up on the top of the blinger tool. 3. Place one blinger rhinestone disc, with rhinestones facing up, onto the pegs on the carousel.  When properly aligned your rhinestones will be in the center of each hole on the carousel. 4. Press the clear cover down to close, snapping it shut. Make sure you press down on the clear cover only and not the top of the hair stage.  If you push down and close using the top of the hair stage, you risk ejecting a rhinestone.
