ABSTRACT:
A bonnet style hair dryer includes integral left and right speakers. Both rigid bonnet and soft bonnet embodiments are described. In either embodiment, each of the speakers is positioned proximate a respective ear of the user when the bonnet is placed over the user's head. Air deflectors prevent heated air form being directed onto the speakers. A stereo audio cable is connected to the speakers with the opposite end connected to a stereo audio jack positioned within the bonnet. The speakers can thus be connected, via a removable external audio cable, to any suitable audio source, including radio, television audio, stereo music source, etc. so that a user can receive audio entertainment or information while her or his hair is being dried. At the same time, should the user not desire to listen to audio programming, the external cable can be easily removed and the entire stereo audio system becomes virtually invisible from the exterior of the hair dryer.
