A dual-purpose hair straightener sold online through Shein has been recalled because its electrical wires are held only by welds that could detach and touch the metal casing.

This product was distributed in France and does not meet electrical safety standards.

*CRAST*
Product
Hair straightener. Product sold online, in particular via Shein (unique product identifier: sb25070354235882854). Dual purpose hair straightener
Reason
The electrical wires are held only by welds, which could become detached. If a wire detaches, it may come into contact with the inside of the accessible casing of the appliance. In addition, the clearance distance between the live parts and the accessible parts is insufficient. Therefore the user can access live parts and receive an electric shock. This product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
