newone17 Posted September 30, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Hello, I'm cruising out of Baltimore on 10/22 and wanted to know how good is the hair dryer in the cabins. I know that ship has been around a little))), so is the dryer modern or old as ship?)) I've been on Norwegian Crown 10 years ago - the ship was 20 years old, so was the dryer..)) Thank you, and i'm on the desk 2.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted September 30, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Welcome to CC. The age of the drier may vary, but it should be functional and fairly up to date. If there's an issue with it, you can ask your cabin steward for a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msjaxson Posted September 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2016 All of the blow dryers on the ships are low wattage and you have to hold the button in ...doesnt work for my longer thick hair .. been on ships from majesty to anthem this past year all the same..

newone17 Posted September 30, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Thank you much, all! I got it.. My hair is also long and thick, so i guess, i'll go into "vacation mode"))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted September 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I bring my own. The dryers do get hot, but don't blow worth a damn. You will spend about double the time trying to get your hair dry, and it will NOT look as good as with a dryer that actually blows!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted September 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 30, 2016 lousy, especially if you have thick, long or hair that requires actual effort. Luckily that's not mine.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg1phileshipper Posted September 30, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Hairdryers on Adventure blew air, but mom said it took much longer than at home and the location in the desk drawer wasn't the best. She has short hair, so she was okay. If you have long or tick hair, you're better off bringing your own.

BND Posted September 30, 2016 #8 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) I do not have long or thick hair, but I have always brought my own travel dryer. It's more powerful and I don't have to hold the button down. I do not like the dryers they provide (any cruiseline).

newone17 Posted October 1, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Thank you, ladies. Probably, that would be the best solution to bring my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted October 1, 2016 #10 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Alternatively, wash and comb hair, sit on balcony with a big glass of wine and let your hair dry naturally.....may not look as good as with the hairdryer but after the wine who cares!

sdear Posted October 1, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Bring your own. I have made the mistake a few times of not bringing my own, and I regretted it each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinola Posted October 1, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 1, 2016 A good hairdryer will give you volume. Theirs, with such a low wattage can make your hair look flat, de-proofed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awhfy Posted October 1, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I bring my handheld folding hair dryer. I didn't bring on one cruise & wore a lot of hats! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
