Hello, everyone I am Chifumi Maeda, a Japanese female president living in Bangkok.
Thank you, guys, for visiting this
“True comments from Japanese female presidents living in Thailand” blog.
I have been living in Thailand since 1998 and I came here at that time with just 1 suitcase therefore
I locally procured everything here in Thailand.
When people are coming to live here in Thailand from other country,
some people bring many things with them from
where they came from (I came from Japan) however,
if and when it is available and purchasable here in Thailand,
I think it is best to buy them here just to avoid any unnecessary stress.
Today, I’d like to introduce Hair Straightener which can be purchased in Thailand.
I have short hair now, but I used to have long hair,
so Hair straightener was a must-have item for me…
As for a Hair Straightener, it is best to buy them here.
As the voltage often differs from country to country,
when you want to use electrical appliances, the chances are that you might need transformer.
At the beginning,
It can’t be that difficult if you only need to use a transformer, right?
So, I was thinking
But “sometimes”,
after I finish my vacuum cleaning at home,
I forget to connect the transformer when I want to use the vacuum cleaner again.
And that “sometimes” happened several times and sent them to heaven….
Through those “learning in a hard way”,
my conclusion was that the best way to feel at ease is….
to buy electrical appliances here in Thailand.
And the hair-straightener that I am going to talk about today is no exception.
I’ve selected 3 types of hair-dryers that satisfies the following condition.
Available here in Thailand.
If possible, worldwide voltage (100V to 240V)
Cause no damage to the hair (example: gives out negative ion.)
