Getting started with your Hair Tools Travel Bag

What's inside the bag, how to pack your styling tools, and how to use the built-in heat-resistant mat while you style.

Your Hair Tools Travel Bag does two jobs. It's a padded travel case for your hot tools, and it opens flat into a heat-resistant mat you can rest them on while you style.

Before the first use

  • Check the bag for any damage from shipping.
  • Open it fully and get familiar with the layout: the main compartment, interior pockets, zippered pocket, elastic band sections and attached heat-resistant mat.
  • A new neoprene bag can have a mild scent. If you notice one, leave the bag open to air out for about 24 hours.

What's inside

  • A main compartment for your styling tools.
  • Two interior pockets and one zippered pocket for cords and small accessories.
  • Two elastic band sections for hair clips and other small hair accessories.
  • A zipper and magnetic flap. The bag zips closed, then a flap folds over the top and is held down by two magnets.

Packing your tools

  1. Switch your tools off and unplug them.
  2. Place your styling tools in the main compartment.
  3. Wrap cords loosely and tuck them into the pockets.
  4. Use the elastic band sections to organize hair clips and other small hair accessories.
  5. Zip the bag closed, then fold the flap over the top so the two magnets hold it down.

The bag measures 17 × 5.5 × 5 inches and is designed to fit a variety of everyday styling tools, including flat irons, straighteners, curling irons, curling wands and heat brushes.

Using the heat-resistant mat

  1. Open the bag and place the attached heat-resistant mat on a stable surface.
  2. Rest your hot styling tool on the mat while you're using it.
  3. When you're done, switch the tool off and unplug it.
  4. You can pack the tool while it's still warm, and use the heat-resistant mat to let it rest and cool down when needed.

Safety

  • Always switch styling tools off and unplug them before packing.
  • Use the heat-resistant mat when resting hot tools on a surface.
  • Keep hot styling tools away from children.
  • Keep the bag away from open flames and heating elements.
