Hot hair tool use in Europe

Hi,
I am going to be traveling to France and Italy in a few weeks and I was wondering if I can bring my thermal brush for my hair. It is 100-240V, 50/60 Hz, and 50 W. Do you think this will be okay with just a plug adapter?

100-240V indicates dual voltage so it should work with just an adapter. Check the instruction booklet to see if you need to switch something to change the voltage (my hair dryer has a small dial on it).

I always have a problem when I bring my own hairdryer and I don’t like using the hotel hairdryers. I have difficult hair so I want to bring my own. So, now I just buy one from Amazon by changing my country choice. They’ll ship it here for a fee, of course, but I can then travel without worrying about adaptors and converters. (Most of Europe uses the C plug so I can use it in multiple countries).

Or- buy one in Europe once you arrive. Safe travels!
