HOW MIGHT WE CREATE A LESS STRENUOUS WAY TO DRY HAIR?
Smooth-Top and Puff-Top styles
IN CONTEXT
HOW IT WORKS
Step one: turn on fan and adjust heat and intensity settings
Step two: Press "teardrop" button to allow the rotation of dryer on head
Step three: Hold down the side buttons to detach the earpiece
Step four: Bend the headpiece into a handheld device by clicking the ends together
Step five: Dry the ends of hair, by moving hand up and down

Refinement and Feedback
Feedback:
- Too many parts, it’s overcomplicated
- A headband won’t dry all parts of your head
- The dryer will not be strong enough if it’s in the headpiece
More Research
Bladeless fan - blades are hidden in the base Utilizes powerful air-multiplication technology to push air through a smooth, controlled stream
Bernoulli’s principle - an increase in the speed of air creates a decrease in pressure
