A pressing iron contains a safety turn-off switch to prevent scorching if the iron is held stationary for too long. An acceleration sensor produces a signal in response to a predetermined acceleration of the iron and an actuating circuit turns off the iron if the iron is not sufficiently accelerated.

A smoothing iron sole includes a sole body comprised at least partly of a glass material. A heating conductor is mounted on a glass-material surface of the sole body facing a sole surface and the sole further includes a thin fabric layer of heat-resistant fibers covering the glass-material surface for defining the sole surface. The heat-resistant fibers are sealed and closed off relative to the heating conductor arrangement by a heat-resistant connecting material which is firmly bonded to the glass-material surface. In one embodiment the heat-resistant fibers are glass fibers and in another they are boron carbide. The connecting material has a melting point which is lower than that of the heat-resistant fibers.

A collapsible flexible hair drying hood includes a base air chamber communicating with a blower and flexible hoselike hood portions. The hoselike hood portions extend upwardly from the base air chamber when the hair drying hood is in use. The hose-like hood portions define nozzle orifices for blowing hot air from the blower onto hair and elongated slots therebetween for communicating the interior of the hood with the free environment.

A pressing iron comprises basically a sole-body, housing halves, a clamping device and a circuit support plate. Inclined surfaces on the sole-body and the housing halves cooperate to hold all of the members together when the housing halves are clamped together by the clamping device. Additional features are disclosed for providing an improved pressing iron.
