Camaro9840 Posted September 16, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Hi, we will be on the Freedom at the end of the week. I know a iron is not allowed, but my wife wants to know about a curling and straightening iron for her hair, is this allow on RCCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted September 16, 2012 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Yes, you can bring a hair straightener or electric curlers or curling iron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondcat Posted September 16, 2012 #3 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I bought on both (both cruises) no issues. Unthinkable to have a trip without straighteners!! Enjoy! Sent from my BlackBerry 9300 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseprincess27 Posted September 16, 2012 #4 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I'd be lost without my flat iron. Never had any problem bringing it on any RC ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wants2cruise2 Posted September 16, 2012 #6 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Used my flat iron on liberty of seas last Feb. in my cabin. On damp hair. Steam from hair set off alarm on celing I was sitting under....smoke alarm going off,,,,DH yelling,,,,phone ringing with security calling,,,,me and DD fanning the air and opening balcony doors,,,,,the security knocking on the cabin door. Was not pretty all around. Probably leaving my flat iron home next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your flat iron, dry hair first and have a great cruise. Safe travels. Sue and crew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dchillis Posted September 20, 2012 #10 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I brought toe nail clippers and re-usable Q-Tips on my last cruise. No one said anything :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty red faced when security knocked on the door. But really nice to know they wanted to see the room, not just take our word that everything was ok over the phone. And it was nice to know they were calling us seconds after the alarm went off. Someone really does watch for alarms somewhere. They wern't mad or anything. I just felt stupid.

punky_b Posted September 20, 2012 #12 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Glad to hear no one had trouble getting straighteners on board. I was worried about this too. I just went out and bought a cheap travel sized straightener and plan on packing this in my hand luggage, and my big one in my suitcase... that way I figure I've doubled my chances of at least getting one of them on board! I'm sure there won't be a problem though... And, will watch out for steam! Didn't realise steam could set off smoke alarms :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
