Unfortunately, I usually don't dry my hair long enough for that to happen. It's just recently she has started being startled by it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-get-scared-by-the-hair-dryer#post-337987 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 10:07:54 +0000 kiddosc 337987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E loves the sound of the hairdryer and the vacuum.
