Abstract: The invention relates to a hand-held hair dryer that includes a cylindrically shaped housing having a central axis extending between a first end and a second end of the housing. The housing includes an air inlet located at the first end of the housing and an air outlet opposed to the air inlet, wherein the air outlet is located at or near the second end of the body. The housing supports a fan disposed inside the housing for generating an airflow from the air inlet to the air outlet. The housing also supports a heater disposed inside the housing for heating the airflow. The housing further supports an attachment engaged with the second end of the housing such that the attachment is in communication with the air outlet and receives the airflow from the housing. The attachment supports one or more tines, and in one embodiment a plurality of tines, wherein the tines include a length and at least one air exit defined along the length.
