Temperature-Setting Hair Dryers

'Dial' is a Reimagined Hair Dryer with Customizable Settings

'Dial' is a reimagined hair dryer that offers more temperature options than the standard "hot" or "cool" settings. The conventional design of a hair dryer doesn't take into account the wider opportunity for use the device possesses. Although the standard "hot" setting is ideal for an adult, it could seriously burn a child or pet, resulting in the common but much slower technique of towel-drying.

Dial features advanced temperature control settings, enabling the device to be deemed appropriate for a wider range of tasks. Through Dial, it becomes possible to set the device's temperature to better suit appropriate and changing situations. In addition to its customizable properties, Dial features a sleek and design-oriented form, deviating from the traditional facade to achieve a more sculptural bathroom staple, any homeowner would want to display.
