Abstract: A drying hair curler for use with an electric hair dryer having a tubular end through which pumped heated air is expelled. The curler comprises a coupling section mountable on the tubular end and an axially aligned concentric and smaller tubular section adjacent the coupling downstream thereof so that it receives a core of the expelled air from the coupling. The smaller section has peripheral apertures for outward radial air flow and the coupling section forms a bypass directing air axially along the outer surface of the smaller tubular section so that hair wound on the curler receives both radial and axial hot air flow simultaneously for better drying.
