Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

AG Hair is recalling approximately 3,100 Sweet Heat handheld hair dryers because they lack an immersion protection device. This safety feature is essential to prevent electrocution or electric shock if the hair dryer is accidentally dropped into or immersed in water. The recalled dryers are white with "Sweet Heat" printed in black near the nozzle and were sold at ULTA Beauty, hair salons, and beauty supply stores nationwide between May 2013 and March 2015 for about $100. Consumers should immediately stop using the product and contact the company for a full refund.

Risk

The hair dryer lacks a safety device that automatically cuts power if it falls into water. This creates a severe risk of electrocution or electric shock to the user if the dryer is immersed while plugged in.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your hair dryer for the words 'Sweet Heat' printed in black near the blower nozzle and 'AG Hair' printed in grey and black on the back of the blower nozzle above the handle.
  2. If you have a recalled unit, immediately unplug it and stop using it.
  3. Contact AG Hair toll-free at (866) 924-4247 from 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, or email recall@aghair.com to request a pre-paid mailing label and packaging for returning the dryer.
  4. Return the hair dryer using the provided packaging to receive a full refund.
  5. Visit www.aghair.com and click on 'Recall Notice' for more information and to process your request online.
