Before you do your hair, check out this recall of about 100,000 hot air hair brushes
Styling hair shouldn’t be a deadly danger. That’s why Ecom Brands, doing business as BrushX, recalled 100,000 BrushX hot air hair brushes.
The exact problem, as stated in the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recall alert: “The recalled hot air brushes do not have an immersion protection device, posing an electrocution or shock hazard to the user if it falls into water when plugged in.”
Fortunately, no such problems have been reported yet.
This covers BrushX One, also known as the BrushX Styler, Dryer & Volumizer, and BrushX Gen.2. The recalled brushes have a symbol on the rear of the hair brush that means “not waterproof.”
BrushX asks consumers to unplug the hair brushes, cut the cord and email a photo of the hot air hair brush with the cut cord to replacement@mybrushx.com. Or fill out an online recall form. That will get you a free, upgraded replacement.
Those with questions about this recall should reach out to BrushX at 855-216-3565. The company claims it will respond if you leave a voice mail.
