Here’s a curious revelation. However, almost all of us used to coil our hair dryer cords, obviously for convenience. Before putting them away in the closet, we carefully wrap them up to prevent tangles. Well, today we’re getting a good pat on the back because we’re told this habit is harmful to our devices. If you want them to last, you shouldn’t coil your hair dryer cord anymore. And here’s why.

In the summer, we prefer to let our hair air dry. In the winter, a hairdryer becomes indispensable: to avoid catching a cold, it’s best to use our blow dryer to speed up the process. This is why it’s important to take care of it. However, we must admit that almost all of us make the same mistake: rolling up the cord after each use before putting it away. If you want its performance to last, you need to break this bad habit.
Why isn’t it advisable to wrap this cord around the edges of the hair dryer? Simply because when the appliance is in use, the main outlet area may remain hot for some time, which could damage the cord and ruin the dryer. Furthermore, if you wrap this cord incorrectly, the pressure exerted could deform it and prevent the appliance from functioning properly once plugged in.
