Q: This is very important, as it will protect your hair from heat damage. Heat-damaged hair can often look dry, frizzy, or ratted. To prevent this from happening, apply a heat protectant spray to your hair, focusing on the ends. You should have the bottom third or bottom fourth of your hair loose. The thicker you hair is, the more sections you will need to work with. Take a small section of hair, and place a round brush under it, as close to your roots as you can. Turn on your hairdryer, and place it right over the brush. Keep the hairdryer directly over the brush at all times. Do not pull the brush completely past the ends of your hair. If your hair is not smooth, pull the brush completely past your hair and start again. When your hair is smooth, rotate the brush back towards your scalp, rolling the hair around it. Leave the brush in your hair as it cools. Once it is cool to the touch, carefully pull the brush out of your hair. At this point, you can move onto the next section. If your hair is very fine, consider giving it a quick spray with a lightweight hairspray before moving on. Save power by turning your hairdryer off while you wait for your hair to cool. Keep working in small sections and thin layers until you have straightened all of your hair. If you are happy with this look, you are done and can go about your day. If your hair isn't straight enough for you, pass a hair straightener through the ends and the upper layers. Pull the hair straightener through your hair using an upwards motion rather than straight down. This will help create extra volume. Here are some more pointers on straightening your hair: For even more volume: roll your hair up in a round brush or thermal styling brush, about 1 to 2 inches (3.81 to 5.08 centimeters) away from your scalp. Keep the brush in your hair until your hair cools before pulling it out. Pass your hair straightener through your hair, right under the brush, while unrolling it to make your hair even straighter. Run a brush or your fingers through your hair, starting at your forehead, and moving straight back. This will help create extra volume. After that, you can part or style your hair however you like.
A: Spray your hair with a heat protectant spray. Pull the top part of your hair up onto a loose bun. Start with a small section close to your hair line. Pull the round brush slowly towards the ends of your hair. Make sure your hair is smooth, then roll the brush back towards your scalp. Pull the hairdryer away and wait until your hair cools, then carefully pull the brush out of your hair. Continue straightening the rest of the layer in a similar fashion before moving onto the next. Run a paddle brush through your hair, then pass a hair straightener through it, if necessary. Comb your hair, then give it a spray with a quick spray with a volumizing or texturizing hairspray.

Q: Most digital multimeters use a symbol similar to |( to signify capacitance. Move the dial to that symbol. If several symbols share that spot on the dial, you may need to press a button to cycle between them until the capacitance symbol appears on the screen. If your tool has several capacitor settings, choose the range that fits your best guess for the capacitor's correct value. (You can read the capacitor's label to get a rough idea). If there is only one capacitor setting, your multimeter can automatically detect the range. If your multimeter has a REL button, press it while the test leads are separated. This will zero out the capacitance of the test leads themselves, to avoid interfering with the measurement. This is only necessary if measuring small capacitors. On some models, this mode disables auto-ranging. Note that electrolytic capacitors (most commonly shaped like cans) are polarized, so identify the positive and negative terminals before you connect the multimeter's leads. This may not matter much for your test, but you'll certainly need to know this before using the capacitor in a circuit. Look for any of the following: A + or - next to a terminal. If one pin is longer than the other, the long pin is the positive terminal. A colored stripe next to a terminal is an unreliable marker, since different types of capacitor use different standards. The multimeter will send out a current to charge the capacitor, measure the voltage, then use the voltage to calculate the capacitance. This process can take several seconds, and the buttons and display screen may be slow to respond until it's finished. An "OL" or "overload" reading means the capacitance is too high for the multimeter to measure. Set the multimeter to a higher range if possible. This result can also mean the capacitor has shorted. An auto-ranging multimeter will test the lowest range first, then increase if it hits an overload. You may see "OL" appear on the screen multiple times before you see the final result.
A:
Set the multimeter to measure capacitance. Activate REL mode if present. Connect the leads to the capacitor's terminals. Wait for the result.
