Structure of Hair Dryers

Moving on to the structure of hair dryers, most devices have the following basic components:

- Electric motor

- Heating element (spiral or also known as thermal wire)

- Thermal protection base

- Motor start button and mode switch

The operating principle of hair dryers is quite simple, similar to other electrical appliances such as rice cookers or irons. Most hair dryers nowadays use a coil of wire combined with a large resistor. This allows the device to generate more heat whenever electricity flows through it.

As a result, the blown air will be heated instantly, and this hot air will help you dry your hair quickly.
