There are so many things you can quickly take for granted when you are not on the road and within the comfortable setting of your own home. For example, the handiness of having a kettle, oven, shower and washing machine that you can use with no hassle or worries about the effect it\u2019ll have on your electricity supply. The same could be said too of appliances and accessories such as hair dryers. What do you do when you\u2019ve washed your hair when you\u2019re finished in the shower or bath? You undoubtedly head to your bedroom, switch on the hairdryer and hey presto, depending on how thick and long your hair is, within minutes you\u2019ve got stylish and dry locks and are ready for action.<\/p>\n

While you are on the road though, things are not nearly that easy. It\u2019s when you\u2019ve just had a shower and try to dry your hair either using just towels (heated town rail article here<\/a>) or that hairy dryer (12v hair straighteners<\/a>\u00a0also available here) you took from home that you run into problems. Those problems could be something as serious and embarrassing as shorting the electrics in your caravan or the electric hook-up at the caravan park or site you\u2019re staying at.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why, and if you\u2019ve read some of our other posts, you\u2019ll probably be already aware of this, that you can\u2019t just use the same appliances and accessories that you use at home while you are staying in your caravan. That includes a powerful and fancy hairdryer. You need to make some compromises by investing in a 12-volt model.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to understand though, that travel hair dryers, like many other appliances and equipment designed for camping and caravanning, are not going to give you the same user experience as the one you have at home as the wattage is a lot lower.<\/p>\n
