Which power adapter will I need to bring to use a hair dryer in Jordan?

Jordanian power outlet

Will my hairdryer work in Jordan?

First check your hair dryer can handle the voltage in Jordan:

If not then you can either:

  • Use a power converter (or voltage transformer) - this enables you to use your existing hair dryer and other applicances with a 230 volt Jordanian power outlet, however this is substantially bulkier and more expensive than a dedicated travel hair dryer. A voltage transformer changes the voltage but not the physical shape of the plug on your hair dryer to fit in the wall outlet used in Jordan, therefore check that your voltage transformer has a power adapter for Jordan otherwise you will still need to bring another power adapter. Also worth noting that your own existing hair dryer might not be suited for travelling and you risk potential damage in a suitcase. [15] [AD]
Warning: If your hair dryer won't handle 230 volts you run the potential risk of a blown fuse, damage to your hair dryer or even an electrical fire hazard. Prior to using your hair dryer in Jordan please read the instruction manual first to ensure safe operation.

Using a hair dryer in Jordan

Will my hair dryer work in Jordan?

That will depend on if your hair dryer is designed to operate using the 230 volt power outlets used in Jordan. If you're using either a dual voltage hair dryer or your hair dryer is designed to operate using 230 volts and you have the appropriate plug adapter then you should be able to use the hair dryer in Jordan. If not then you will need to consider purchasing either a dual voltage travel hair dryer [2] or a heavier and more expensive power converter, read our guide on do you need a power converter to use your hair dryer for help deciding which solution is more suitable. [15] [AD]

How to choose the best hair dryer for Jordan

An ALCI safety plug

How to choose the best hair dryer for Jordan

When looking for the best travel hair dryer for Jordan choose a strong but light dual voltage dryer which works with a 230 volt Jordanian power outlet power outlet, includes an ALCI safety plug, long power cord and a folding handle. For drying thick hair buy one with a bundled diffuser that has a higher 1600+ watt motor.

Things to consider when buying a new hair dryer

  1. Try looking for lightweight travel dryers which are durable enough to survive being transported in baggage, dryers with a folding handle will mean more space.
  2. Modern hair dryers might feature a cool shot option for quickly cooling hair down after drying to hold the style but this option could be missing in cheaper models.
  3. A travel hair dryer needs to support dual voltage to function in Jordan.
  4. Ideal travel hair dryers for styling allow you to alter both speed and temperature settings with 2 options - a faster hotter speed can quickly dry wet hair whilst slower speeds with lower temperatures reduce damage to your hair.
  5. Buying the cheapest travel dryer available might be risky - as well as safety concerns there is also a greater risk that the dryer could fail during your trip abroad due to a flimsy build.
  6. Rather than looking for more expensive 3rd party attachments which fit the unique barrel size securely it might be cheaper buying a hair dryer that is supplied with a concentrator and a diffuser from the manufacturer as these should fit perfectly.
  7. The safest travel hair dryers will include an 'ALCI' safety plug which reduces the risk of overloading the motor leading to a fire - these can be recognised by the 2 test and reset switches on the plug.
  8. Depending on the accommodation there could be a fixed mirror installed away from the nearest outlet which could make it cumbersome to dry hair, therefore look for a unit with the lengthiest power cord available.
  9. If you have thicker or curlier hair then you might need a travel hair dryer with a stronger motor, a higher wattage ceramic dryer which has a diffuser will dry hair much faster to prevent damage.

What is the best travel hair dryer with a diffuser attachment for Jordan?

  • A X5 Superlite Ceramic Ionic is a 1600 watt travel hair dryer with a 1.65 metre electric power cable, it is supplied with a tourmaline diffuser but it is missing a cool shot feature.
  • A Hot Tools 1044 Ionic Travel Dryer features a long 1.82 metre electric power cord for more freedom when styling with an ALCI safety plug and removable filter for easy cleaning. It also utilises a strong 1875 watt motor including a cool shot option making it more suited for drying thick hair.

What is the best mini ionic travel hair dryer?

BaBylissPRO Tourmaline Titanium

What is the best mini ionic travel hair dryer?

  • A Conair MiniPRO is the best value mini ionic hairdryer available to buy, this ceramic 1200 watt dryer will be suited for quickly drying thin and fine hair on the go.
  • A BaBylissPRO Tourmaline Titanium is both lightweight and small enough to transport in a purse due to the 10.5 ounce body and folding handle that includes features reserved for larger hair dryers including a removable filter and a tourmaline outlet which emits infrared heat to protect against heat damage during use for a glossy finish.

What is a good blow dryer for thick curly hair?

Thicker hair takes much longer to dry and could be difficult to do so without hair turning frizzy, so the best option will be an ionic blow dryer and for curly thick hair use a diffuser as both are able to dry and manage hair smoothly. Both the X5 Superlite Ceramic Ionic or a Hot Tools 1044 Ionic Travel Dryer are suitable because of their powerful motors, ionic outlets and bundled diffusers, avoid buying a blow dryer with a motor that is less powerful than 1600 watts as this won't be strong enough.  [16] [17] [AD]

Jordan power outlets and plug sockets

What frequency is used in a Jordanian power outlet?

The frequency of the current from a Jordanian power outlet is 50Hz. [22]

What is the mains voltage in Jordan?

Power outlets in Jordan are 230 volts.

Which travel adapter do you need to bring for using a hair dryer in Jordan?

There are six different types of power outlets used in Jordan, types G, B, C, D, F and J with the primary power outlets being type G:

  • Plug Type A - The power socket (known as the type A power outlet) can be recognised by 2 thin adjacent slots for live and neutral blades.
  • Plug Type B - You can identify the wall socket by two slots adjacent to each other for live and neutral blades with a semicircle hole below for the long grounded pin.
  • Plug Type C - You can identify the power outlet by the two holes adjacent to each other for live and neutral.
  • Plug Type D - You can recognise this plug outlet by the 3 round holes in a triangular configuration.
  • Plug Type F - You can identify the wall socket by two large holes 19 mm adjacent to each other for live and neutral and a pair of thin grounding clips above and below.
  • Plug Type G - You can identify this power outlet by the three holes forming a triangle shape for live, neutral and earth.
  • Plug Type J - This flattened hexagon shaped power socket (known as a type J power outlet) looks like 3 large circular holes forming a flattened triangle pattern.

A suitable travel adapter to bring to use a 230 volt hair dryer in Jordan is a Type G plug adapter; read the simple guide below for full details of using a power adapter for Jordan. Be aware that unless you that have a dual voltage hair dryer you might also need to use a voltage converter.  [12] [23] [AD]

Which travel adapter do you need to bring for using a hair dryer in Jordan?

Dual voltage hair dryers

Is my hair dryer dual voltage?

Single voltage hair dryer

Is my hair dryer dual voltage?

An easy way how to tell if your hair dryer will handle a dual voltage power outlet is to check for either a sticker or numbers printed on the handle, base or plug. This location will vary depending on the make and model of your hair dryer and should also state in the instruction manual. Some dual voltage hair dryers might change automatically but other hair dryer models will feature a switch which allows you to change between different voltage ranges depending on which country you are in.

  • Single voltage could say a specific number - such as 110V. If this number matches the 230 volts used in Jordan then you should be able to use your hair dryer with a Jordanian power outlet.
  • Single voltage could also have a small voltage range with a dash to accomodate small voltage fluctuations - such as 100-120V. If the 230 volts used in a Jordanian power outlet falls within the range shown on your hair dryer then you can use it in Jordan.
  • Dual voltage will typically say a large range separated with a slash - such as 100/240V. Your hair dryer will be capable of being used in Jordan or any other country if these numbers are shown.

How do I use a dual voltage blow dryer in Jordan?

  1. First ensure that you are have a dual voltage hair dryer or it will operate with a 230 volt power outlet.
  2. If the hair dryer is dual voltage please make sure it is switched to the 220-240v range. This is usually found on the base or handle of the blow dryer and requires a screwdriver or coin to switch.
  3. Plug the hair dryer into the power adapter for Jordan and then plug in the power adapter into the Jordanian power outlet.
  4. It is common on most travel hair dryer models operating in the 220-240v range to only work safely on a low speed setting - however this speed should still be adequate enough for drying hair. We recommend checking the hair dryer guidelines to see if this rule is appropriate for your model of dual voltage dryer to prevent overheating.
  5. Your hair dryer is now ready to be used with a Jordanian power outlet.

How should you change the voltage on a travel hair dryer?

  1. Normal dual voltage hair dryers have a switch which changes between 2 voltages although some hair dryers are capable of automatically detecting the voltage from a Jordanian power outlet.
  2. This switch or dial needs either a screwdriver or coin to set the dryer to the correct voltage between a 110v-120v range or the 220v-240v range.
  3. In addition to switching this it's worth making a note of the 2 switch positions as the painted numbers are prone to rubbing off on some models of travel dryer.

Travelling to Jordan with a hair dryer

Should you bring a travel hair dryer or domestic hair dryer to Jordan?

Bringing a dual voltage travel hair dryer is preferable to bringing your existing blow dryer to Jordan (marked with 'For domestic use only') as it ensures that it will work with the 230 volt power outlets used with a Jordanian power outlet (provided that you use the correct power adapter for Jordan). Travel hair dryers typically feature a collapsible handle and will be lighter, this will help reduce the size and weight in luggage compared to bringing a domestic blow dryer.

It is also worth bearing in mind that bringing an expensive domestic hair dryer could put it at risk because of potential damage or loss in your suitcase by airport baggage handlers. The cost and inconvenience of replacing an expensive quality hair dryer in Jordan could outweigh the cost of purchasing a cheap dual voltage travel hair dryer [2] with a suitable travel hair dryer case before your trip .  [24] [AD]

Do hotel rooms in Jordan have hair dryers?

Hotel hair dryer

Do hotel rooms in Jordan have hair dryers?

This will all depend on the hotel or bed and breakfast and the quality of the accommodation. Hotel hair dryers are normally found attached to a bathroom wall, these could be a slower air hose variety, or might be found in a bedroom drawer, wardrobe or cupboard. In budget hostels, motels and hotels a shared hair dryer might be available at reception, however that might involve waiting in turn for other guests. If you are uncertain as to hotel hairdryer policy then either call ahead to the hotel in Jordan or check on the booking web site to find out what is available to guests. Hair dryers found in hotels are usable but normally basic models lacking a diffuser, notorious for slower air speeds and low heat. Those concerned with hygiene should check for the burnt hair from other guests on a shared hair dryer as room service might not have scraped this off when cleaning the room.

For guests who aren't sure that a suitable and germ-free hair dryer is readily available should put their mind at rest by bringing their own dual voltage travel hair dryer.  [2] [AD]

Can you bring a hair dryer in your carry on luggage to Jordan?

Folding travel hair dryer with cord wrapped for carry on

Can you bring a hair dryer in your carry on luggage to Jordan?

According to the TSA guidelines for hair dryers there are no restrictions when bringing a mains powered blow dryer in your hand luggage through airport security in the United States. The TSA suggests that you should verify that your airline who is taking you to Jordan will allow hair dryers onboard and that it will fit in the overhead bin or underneath the seat of the aircraft. Packing your hair dryer in a dedicated heat resistant protective travel hair dryer case leaves it easily accessible when going through airport security, it can be packed away quickly avoiding a tangle of power cords in your carry on luggage (the TSA recommends wrapping cables tightly around electronic items such as blow dryers). If you do intend to pack fragile or expensive blow dryers in your hand held luggage then it is recommended to use hard carry on luggage as this provides the most protection against knocks and drops during your journey.   [24] [25] [26] [AD]

Power converters for Jordan

Do you need a converter to use your hair dryer in Jordan?

The correct type power converter (or voltage transformer) will allow your hair dryer using a different voltage to work with the 230 volt power outlet used in Jordan. A power converter is more suited for travellers wishing to bring their own hair dryer, but it could be cheaper to purchase a dedicated dual voltage travel hair dryer [2] than it is to purchase a power converter. Also worth noting, a power converter is considerably bulkier and heavier than a travel hair dryer making a power converter less suited for travelling compared to a travel hair dryer. [15] [AD]

What is the difference between a plug adapter and a power converter for Jordan?

Voltage converter

What is the difference between a plug adapter and a power converter for Jordan?

A heavy and expensive power converter converts the voltage of 230 volts from a Jordanian power outlet to work with a non-230 volt hair dryer, however a cheaper and smaller power adapter (or plug adapter) will change the shape of the plug on your hair dryer to slot into a power outlet found in Jordan. [15] [AD]
