rdsqrl Posted August 13, 2010 #26 Share Posted August 13, 2010 It works fine for my flowing locks. :D I thought you'd gone for dreads so you wouldn't have to blow dry anymore? just back off ruby and for the first time on a cruise I didn't take my hairdryer,It is above the dressing table so you can sit comfortably and have a huge mirror in front of you. The cable was really long and it had 2 heat settings. I have shoulderblade length hair and it dried my hair really well. As pam says - the water is really soft so this changes how your hair will behave. My almost poker straight hair became rather wavey which I quite liked but can't replicate with ease at home.........is that good enough reason to go back on the ship next week do you think???????[/quote] In a word, yes!!!! Nothing is too much trouble to ensure a good-hair day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veggie59 Posted August 13, 2010 #27 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Was on the Emerald last week. The dryers are in the cabin area, not in the bathroom. And they are crap. I started drying my hair, which is below my shoulders and thick, my husband got in the shower, out, dressed in his tux and I was still drying my hair. After that is was a ponytail for the rest of the cruise.:) Thanks.....I will bring my own. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 HappyCruiser Posted August 13, 2010 #29 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I have had those hair dryers shut off for me a number of times. I always bring my own, very small, travel blow dryer. I just have it ready for when the cruise ships dryer gives out. My hair is chin length and not very thick. I'd say, the dryers last about 5-7 minutes on high before shutting down. They cut our only if you hold it very close for to long. After a while you sort of know how close you can go without it overheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdblakeslee Posted August 13, 2010 #30 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Seems like I remember thinking after pondering this situation months ago that I decided to buy a blow dryer at our embarkation port in Rome. I'll have other "necessities" shopping to do before we board, so this item might go on my list! Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
