Do you ever use your hair dryer for anything besides drying your hair? If my clothes gets wet for some reason before heading out I'll dry it with the dryer.

I don't use a hair dryer at all. But my husband is an artist, and he uses one sometimes if he needs a coat of paint to dry quick!

How can you take a hair dryer outside and melt the ice off of your windshield? I mean,where do you plug it in? I also use a hair dryer to dry my nails.

I don't dry my hair with one...I have used it for all worts of art projects though (with paint, or glue gun, or just things that are wet that need to be dried faster). I have used it to dry carpet or upholstery when a drink was spilled on it and left it a bit wet.

When I have an earache, I put it on the lowest setting and warm and blow it in my ear. It's nice and it helps.

For thawing out the frozen hot water pipes if I forget to leave it dripping on really cold nights. In fact, I keep it in the basement in the winter because I rarely use it for hair.

That was in Minnesota. Where I live now, there are electrical outlets in my carport and in my garage, but I don't need to thaw my windshields here. In Minnesota, we used to keep our vehicles plugged in during the winter, or they would not start. We even did this for the time we lived in apartments by just running a log cord out to the car. Lots of apartments there have outlets that are designated for the apartments, and they are at the designated parking places for this purpose.

I've used mine to dry my jeans after dumping water on myself (by accident of course).

Got some great ideas in here. I like the one about warming up your socks before putting them on and the straightener to iron a shirt collar down.

I've used my hair dryer for most of these things too ... and I don't use it on my hair (unless I'm doing a fancy style for something) -- my hair dries fast enough as is! My hair dryer stays with my craft supplies (unless dh seizes it to do something with his model railroad!)

I use mine to dry the inside of tennis shoes that are still damp after going through the washing machine.

Hair dryers are great to inflate blow up mattresses if any of you camp or ever use them for company. They work really fast. I also use them to remove stickers from glass or any hard surfaces that won't peel off cleanly.

Hair driers are good for jump starting the drying process for ski boots.
