rjack22 Posted February 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Yes you can, as long as it has a automatic shut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpcv77 Posted February 18, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2014 My dd and I both brought flat irons. No one asked about auto shut off (hers has it mine doesn't) but as with any heat producing appliance, we are very, very careful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizard-of-roz Posted February 18, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2014 The Cabin Steward will look for such devices that are plugged in and unattended and he is told to unplug what he feels could be dangerous. It's part of his job. It's unfortunate that he/she must babysit some folks but it's for the safety of all of us who are onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizard-of-roz Posted February 18, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I bet you thought that he/she was there to just "freshen-up" your cabin! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpcv77 Posted February 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I am a compulsive "un-plugger" even at home. I once drove home, after driving half way to work, because I thought I'd forgotten to un-plug something! Three cheers for the cabin steward.

kendon Posted February 18, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Interesting, but I didn't see a blow dryer on the Royal last week. I always bring my own anyway. If that's important to you, you may want to inquire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tntfox Posted February 18, 2014 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hair dryers are almost always tucked away in a desk drawer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made me drive back home because he thought he had left the oven on [guess what, he did!]. I agree about the Cabin Steward! They do go above and beyond!

OCruisers Posted February 18, 2014 #12 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Ladies.. can you take a curling Iron on board a Princess ship...:o Thanks CC Yes! I always take my curling iron. On our January (2014) cruise on Crown Princess mine stopped working. I almost panicked! :eek: Thankfully, they sold curling irons in the gift shop!

If that's important to you, you may want to inquire. Hair dryers are almost always tucked away in a desk drawer.Actually, this is incorrect when it comes to Princess. :( On the Ocean and Pacific Princess, it's a machine mounted in the bathroom. On all other ships other than the Royal, a hair dryer is mounted on the wall above the desk. On the Royal Princess, it's in the drawer.

kitty52 Posted February 18, 2014 #14 Share Posted February 18, 2014 While we are on about hair. How good are the hairdryers on the Coral? I find that some of the wall mounted hairdryers take so long to dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted February 18, 2014 #15 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I always pack my own because of my thick hair. And because I like a variety of speeds and heat. If you have to ask about the drier, I'd say you are like me and you should bring your own to avoid disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpcv77 Posted February 18, 2014 #17 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hair dryers? Not so good. I have thick curly hair that's slightly below my ears. I have a stretchy diffuser sock that I use on the Princess supplied dryers but only dry my hair about 3/4 of the way. I use my mini straightener to tame the bangs a bit, but I'm ok with the wind blown curly look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted February 19, 2014 #18 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Back to the OP question on curling irons .... If curling irons were a "no-no", Princess gift shops would not sell them. I was so happy to find a curling iron in the gift shop on Crown Princess when mine quit working. :) LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newport dave Posted February 19, 2014 #19 Share Posted February 19, 2014 You can also use your 'Flat Irons'/Straighteners as a makeshift Iron as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
