It’s pretty difficult to make your travel photos look fabulous when your hair is a mess and that’s why it comes in handy to always have a hairdryer by your side. Unfortunately, you’ll struggle to make room for one if you’re traveling light. Here are a few things you should consider before doing it.
Accommodation Type
If you’re staying at a hotel or a well-equipped Airbnb, a hairdryer will most likely be available. That’s not always the case with hostels, and some of them either don’t provide hairdryers or they’re not available free of charge. Checking reviews comes in handy, but you can also message the property to ask for the info about their hairdryer situation.
Travel Destination
Packing a hairdryer will be a waste of space if you’re traveling to a country where they’re using different types of outlets. Do some research and see if you should also bring an adapter along because your hairdryer will be useless without it.
Right Season
The date of your trip will play a crucial role in helping you determine if you need a hairdryer or not. Letting your hair dry naturally is much easier during the warmer seasons, but you’ll struggle with it in the winter. Feel free not to pack a hairdryer during the hot summer months, but try to make some room for it in your suitcase once fall and winter arrive.
