The Twist Hair Dryer is one of few examples of such an appliance that appears to really strive to accommodate the wrist. Sure, the conventional L-shape of most hot air stylers provides a better grip from most angles, but it can be awkward to handle when working with the sides and the top of your head.
The solution put forth by the clever designer Yu Hiraoka is a compact contraption that is capable of changing form. Its two halves come together at about a 45-degree angle to link up as a straight capsule or a gadget with a right angled bend.
Just a flick of the wrist can quickly reconfigure and transform the tiny electric Twist Hair Dryer for better portability, improved handling and more natural wrist positioning.
