Hairdryers...

[CruisingSnooter]

Anyone have any recent experience with the hairdryers in the room?

[Cruiseaholichal]

It was there-- I used it.

My wife says the cabin hair dryer is better than no hair dryer at all, what ever that means.:rolleyes:

[NoDayButToday]

They are ok...simple and not very high powered. My dryer from home is way better, but I have short hair so I normally end up just using the room one.

[CruisingSnooter]

Thanks all! :)

[lovecarnivalcruises]

I always bring my own.

My wife has fairly long hair, and she usually tries to use it...but eventually gives up. She said that she is taking her own this summer.

I used it but the power barely dried my hair. This last cruise I brought my own. My friend who was in the next cabin over just went out on the balcony to let the wind dry her hair.

Yep, wife used one on our first cruise. The combination of the hair dryer and steam from the shower set off the smoke detector in the cabin, which we did not realize until cabin phone rang, person on other end was the ships captain asking if everything was ok, then a knock at the door and 2 crew members with fire gear showed up. Don't believe she's used once since.

I always use it, but I have very fine, medium length hair. If I were trying to style my hair using it I would probably not, but I still use a curling iron for styling. The hair dryer is in a drawer and attached to the drawer. The cord is not very long so I would think it would be hard to use to style your hair.

I've always used the one in the cabin. My hair is fine, medium length. If you have thick hair, you may want to take your own.

I brought my own and was glad I did. They do have one but it's pretty low powered. I have very thick hair and it would've taken forever to dry.

[N2Mischief]

I have a neuro-muscular auto-immune disease which causes rapid muscle fatigue. I have to use a band around the button to keep the dryer going. It irritates me that the dryer wont just stay on, so I bring my own now. I have long hair and the dryers are pretty weak.

I've never had an issue with them but then again I'm bald. 😛

You don't say which ship you're interested in as some ships don't have any hair dryers. Do you have a specific ship in Mind?

[Prisc777]

Wasn't very powerful but we got the job done lol!

[lisajm]

DH thinks that I am crazy, but I take my own blowdryer everywhere I travel.

[eng4]

If you have short hair its fine. You have to hold the button down the whole time you use it. I have thick hair, I bring my own.

Really?? I thought they all had them. Does the Splendor have dryers? I told our group of 4 cabins not to bother bringing dryers.

Splendor yes. But not all ships do; the fantasy class ships do not; Conquest, Splendor, Spirit classes all do.

I'll be on the Pride. Thanks for all the feedback...I have naturally curly hair that I like to straighten, so I think I will lug mine with me!

The ones we had last year on the Triumph were a freaking joke. :( I have fairly thick hair and at the time, it was longish (past my shoulders). It took over an hour to dry my hair properly and after the second day of that, I gave up because it was just too big of a pain in the neck.

[Runaway Parent]

Elation did not have hairdryers.

[In2why]

The breeze on the balcony dried my hair quicker.
