How do I use a hair dryer in French Guiana?

Which is a good blow dryer for thick curly hair?

Thick hair takes longer to dry and can be difficult to do so without your hair turning frizzy, so the best option is an ionic blow dryer, if the hair is curly use a diffuser as both are suitable to dry and manage hair smoothly. Either an Hot Tools 1044 Ionic Travel Dryer or the X5 Superlite Ceramic Ionic are suitable as they both have powerful motors, ionic outlets and included diffusers, avoid buying a hair dryer with a motor that is less powerful than 1600 watts as it will struggle to dry thicker hair.  [12] [13] [AD]

Which is the smallest dual voltage hair dryer for French Guiana?

• If you want to dry fine and thin hair whilst on the go the 1200 watt ceramic Conair MiniPRO is the best value small ionic blowdryer available on the market.
• The BaBylissPRO Tourmaline Titanium is both small and lightweight enough to carry in a handbag because of the 10.5oz body with folding handle that also includes features reserved for larger dryers including a tourmaline outlet which can emit infrared heat to protect against heat damage during styling resulting in a glossier finish.

Both of these are dual voltage mini hair dryers when used with a suitable plug adapter for a French Guianese power outlet they should work in French Guiana and fold conveniently making them small enough to be carried for styling on the go. Both are twin speed, have a 1.5m electric power cable and include a concentrator.  [14] [14] [15] [AD]

Are there hair dryers in hotel rooms in French Guiana?

Depending on the individual hotel or bed and breakfast and class of the accommodation a hair dryer might be available in the room, either packed in a bedroom wardrobe, cupboard or drawer, found attached to a bathroom wall unit or could potentially be a slower air hose type. When staying in cheaper hotels, hostels and motels a shared hair dryer could be offered at reception, however that might involve waiting in turn for other guests. If you are uncertain about the hotel hairdryer policy you can either call ahead to your hotel in French Guiana or check on the hotel web site to find out what type of hairdryer is available to guests. Hair dryers in hotels are usable but are typically basic models lacking a diffuser and notorious for slow air speeds and low heat. For those concerned with hygiene should remove grime from previous guests on a shared hair dryer as the hotel room service might not have scraped this off when cleaning the room.

Remember, if in doubt either call ahead to your hotel in French Guiana or use a suitable dual voltage travel hair dryer ^[2].  [2] [AD]

Is it better to bring a travel hair dryer or domestic blow dryer to French Guiana?

Packing a dual voltage travel hair dryer is preferable to packing an existing blow dryer to French Guiana as it ensures that it will work with the 220 volt power outlets used with a French Guianese power outlet (as long as you use the correct plug adapter for French Guiana). Travel hair dryers normally feature a collapsing handle and are much lighter, this helps reduce the size and weight when packed in luggage compared to packing a domestic blow dryer. Please note that packing your expensive domestic hair dryer could place it at risk because of potential loss or damage in transit by airline baggage handlers. The inconvenience and costs of replacing or repairing an expensive quality domestic hair dryer in French Guiana might be more than purchasing a much cheaper dual voltage travel hair dryer ^[2] with a suitable travel hair dryer case .  [19] [AD]
