I brought a Remington hair straightener today that works on worldwide voltage. However I noticed on the iron that it says 120-240V~. Will this still work in Japan, but only slower?Will a 120V hair straightener work in Japan?
Japan runs on 100V, but if your hair straightener runs on 120V, it ';should'; be okay. For a short trip, nothing bad will happen. It's only 10V. However, if you plan to live in Japan for up to a year, you may consider buying a new one. I have a set of electric clippers that broke on me, but only after 2 years in Japan, and it was already over 7 years old when it broke. It wasn't ';worldwide voltage'; rated. Only North American rated.
Japan also runs two types of Hz cycles. 50Hz in Tokyo and 60Hz in Osaka. It shouldn't be a big problem either.
