The Airstyler Pro Ceramiq has three heat settings: 35°C, 70°C, and 110°C. Fine, thin, or chemically treated hair styles best at 35°C or 70°C, while thick, coarse, or hard-to-style hair usually responds better to the highest setting of 110°C. If you're not sure which to use, always start on the lowest setting and work your way up only if the result doesn't hold enough.
In short
- The Airstyler Pro Ceramiq has three settings: 35°C (low), 70°C (medium), and 110°C (high).
- Fine, thin, or chemically treated hair: use 35°C or 70°C for the best results.
- Normal to thick hair: 70°C works for most everyday styling.
- Coarse, very thick, or hard-to-style hair: 110°C usually gives the longest hold.
- If you're unsure, always start on the lowest setting and only work your way up if needed.
Below, you'll learn why choosing the right temperature matters just as much for your result as the technique itself.
Why does the Airstyler Pro Ceramiq have three settings instead of one fixed temperature?
Not every hair type responds to heat the same way. Fine or chemically treated hair is more sensitive to heat exposure and often needs only a lower temperature to take on a curl or shape. Thick or coarse hair usually needs more heat to hold that same shape over time.
By offering three settings (35°C, 70°C, and 110°C) instead of one fixed level, you can match the temperature to your own hair instead of accepting a compromise that isn't optimal for anyone.
Which setting suits which hair type?
For fine, thin, or chemically treated hair (for example, bleached or color-treated), 35°C is often already enough, and a lower temperature avoids unnecessary extra heat exposure on hair that's already more fragile. For normal to slightly thicker hair, 70°C is a good starting point for everyday styling.
For thick, coarse, or hard-to-style hair, the highest setting of 110°C usually gives the longest hold, because this hair type needs more heat to actually hold the new shape. On the highest setting, work in smaller sections for an even result.
Frequently asked questions
Which heat setting should I use for bleached or chemically treated hair?
The lowest setting, 35°C, is the safest starting point for bleached, colored, or chemically treated hair, to limit extra heat exposure on hair that's already more fragile.
Can I always style on the highest setting for the best result?
Not necessarily. The highest setting (110°C) gives more hold for thick or coarse hair, but it isn't necessary and can be needlessly harsh on fine or thin hair, which often does just fine on a lower setting.
What happens if I choose the wrong heat setting?
With too low a setting for thick hair, you may get less hold or a curl that drops faster. With too high a setting for fine or fragile hair, you risk unnecessary heat exposure without a noticeably better result.
Should I always start on the lowest setting?
That's a safe approach if you're unsure about your hair type or new to the device: start low and only work your way up if the result doesn't hold enough.
Three settings, so your hair gets exactly the temperature it needs.
The Airstyler Pro Ceramiq offers 35°C, 70°C, and 110°C on a fully ceramic-coated curling attachment, so you can match the heat to your hair type instead of settling for one fixed, universal level.
