Hazard

The electric hair dryer's power cord does not have an immersion protection plug. Therefore, if the hair dryer falls into water during use, it can pose a shock and/or electrocution hazard.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these hair dryers immediately and return them to the store where purchased to receive a full refund.

Incidents & injuries

None reported.
