Description
This recall involves XZT Huizhou's compact mini hair dryers. The foldable dryers were sold in blue, green, pink and white, and have a white switch with two gear settings and a thermostatic function. "Fashion Hair Dryer" and an image of two animal faces appear on the side of the hair dryer next to a white button with "OK" embossed on it.
