What are the side effects of hair dryers? Professional hair dryers do not pose any harm to hair, but many people have reported that using hair dryers can lead to dry and broken hair. In fact, this is because some hair dryers may have many problems during use, such as inaccurate temperature control and unstable wind speed, which can damage hair follicles and scales on the scalp, leading to excessive dryness, knotting, yellowing, and hair loss. What are the hazards of using unprofessional hair dryers? Below, I have summarized four specific hazards of hair dryers for everyone:
(1) Causing damage to hair quality
As a convenient and fast tool, hair dryers are widely used in daily life, but they also have certain hazards. Firstly, the high-temperature wind of a hair dryer can cause damage to the hair. When using a hair dryer, direct contact with hot air can cause dehydration and brittleness of the hair, leading to problems such as breakage and branching. In addition, prolonged use of a hair dryer can also make the scalp too dry, leading to problems such as dandruff and scalp inflammation.
(2) Potential injury hazards exist
Unprofessional hair dryers have long-term hidden chronic hair injury hazards, as these products have not been optimized and tuned, resulting in poor constant temperature performance, insufficient wind speed stability, and poor maintenance effects. They can scorch hair, burn scalp, damage hair essence, and even damage hair follicles!
(3) Odor and loud noise
Hair dryers can produce a certain odor and noise during use. To accelerate hair drying, a hair dryer usually heats up the air. Prolonged blowing can lead to the release of odors in the air, causing discomfort to the human body. In addition, the motor of the hair dryer produces noisy noise during operation, which not only interferes with people’s normal life but also causes certain damage to their hearing. Especially in the home environment, prolonged exposure to the sound of wind blowing can cause difficulties for family rest, learning, and communication.
(4) There are safety hazards present
The use of hair dryers also poses certain safety hazards. Firstly, due to the need to connect the power supply for hair dryers, there is a risk of electric fire if the socket ages or is not used properly. Secondly, low-quality hair dryers may cause problems such as wire aging, short circuits in electrical components, and even electrical malfunctions and fires. In addition, many hair dryers use low-quality plastic shells, which can easily cause electric shock accidents if they accidentally come into contact with water during use.
