(Review) Which brand of hair dryer is good, performs well, and is hair-friendly (2024)?

I have been living in Thailand since 1998 with just one suitcase,

so everything I use is purchased locally in Thailand.

If I have to travel from another country (in my case, Japan) to Thailand,

many people may bring items from abroad.

However, for me, it’s more convenient to purchase things in Thailand if they are available here.

Today, I will introduce hair dryers that are available for purchase in Thailand in the year 2024.

The hair dryer used in Thailand should be purchased in Thailand for the best quality.

This is because each country has different electrical voltage standards.

If you want to use electrical appliances purchased from abroad in Thailand,

you often need to use a voltage converter as well.

At first, I thought,

But one day, after I cleaned and unplugged the devices,

when I tried to use them again,

I forgot to reconnect the voltage converter.

This led to several electrical appliances malfunctioning repeatedly.

From this experience,

I concluded that it is more convenient to buy electrical appliances directly in Thailand.

This time, I chose a hair dryer that meets the following 3 criteria:

Available for purchase in Thailand.

Easy to use (e.g. lightweight, durable, adjustable airflow and mode, etc.)

Hair-friendly (i.e. contains ions)

For the period of 1 Jan – 15 Feb 2024.
