FAQs

What hair types is the Shark FlexStyle suitable for?

The Shark FlexStyle is designed for all hair types – from fine to thick, and straight to curly – to achieve a variety of styles.

How does the Coanda Technology work with the Auto-Wrap Curlers?

Coanda Technology uses a high-speed jet of air to create a continuous airflow that automatically wraps hair around the barrel, forming curls without the need for extreme heat or complicated wrapping techniques.

Does the Shark FlexStyle prevent heat damage?

Yes, the FlexStyle measures air temperature 1000 times per second, ensuring consistent, optimal temperatures to prevent heat damage to your hair.

Can I use the FlexStyle on wet hair?

Yes, the Shark FlexStyle functions as a powerful hair dryer for fast drying from wet hair. For styling with attachments like the curlers or brushes, it's often best to use on damp hair that is about 80-90% dry, depending on the desired style.

How do I clean my Shark FlexStyle and its attachments?

Always unplug the device and let it cool completely. Wipe the main unit and attachments with a soft, damp cloth. Periodically clean the air intake filter at the bottom of the unit by gently removing any lint or dust buildup to maintain performance.

Is the Shark FlexStyle good for travel?

Yes, its ultra-lightweight and compact design, along with the included storage case for all attachments, make it highly portable and convenient for travel.

What is the purpose of the Cool Shot setting?

The Cool Shot setting delivers a burst of cold air that helps to rapidly cool down and set your hair style in place, locking in curls or smoothing for long-lasting results.

Troubleshooting

Hair not holding curl or style.

Ensure hair is slightly damp (not soaking wet) when using the Auto-Wrap Curlers or Oval Brush for best results. Always use the `Cool Shot` function for 10-15 seconds after forming each curl or section to set the style. Make sure styling products like mousse or setting spray are applied appropriately before and after styling.

Device is not turning on.

Verify that the power cable is securely plugged into both the FlexStyle unit and a working electrical outlet. Check your circuit breaker. If using an extension cord, ensure it is rated for high-wattage appliances and is fully plugged in.

Weak airflow or reduced drying performance.

Check the air intake filter, located at the bottom of the main unit, for any dust, lint, or hair buildup. Ensure the device is unplugged and cool, then gently clean the filter. Also, check for any blockages in the styling attachments themselves.

Attachments are difficult to connect or detach.

Ensure the main unit's neck is properly rotated to the correct position (either dryer or styler mode) before attempting to attach or detach accessories. Push firmly and twist until you hear a click when attaching. When detaching, twist and pull gently.
