A hair treatment apparatus includes a rotary arm having an air flow passage, an electric fan for blowing air through the passage to an outlet for impingement onto the hair being treated and an electric heater installed in the passage for heating the air. The rotary arm is rotatably attached at a tiltable angle to an obliquely downwardly facing body cover supported on a support rod and housing an electric motor driven drive mechanism for reciprocally rotating the arm in a path defining a conical surface about the body cover. The tilted angle of the arm is adjustable to change the apex angle of the conical surface described by the arm during rotation. The rotary drive mechanism can slip should the arm be blocked by an external force. A photo sensor position detecting arrangement controls the limits of the reciprocal rotation of the rotary arm.

A hair drying apparatus consists of a curved radiation element for radiating of infrared rays and a reflector for supporting the radiation element and for reflecting infrared rays radiated from the radiation element. A rotating member is provided for rotatable support of the pivotal motion of the reflector. The hair drying apparatus has a drive engagement for activating a rotating member which includes a slip clutch mechanism stopping the rotation of the rotating member when the radiation element and the reflector strike an object during the rotation.
