A system comprising:
- a hairbrush heating device, the hairbrush heating device comprising:
- a housing;
- a hairbrush cavity formed in the housing and configured for receiving a portion of a hairbrush including a plurality of hairbrush bristles such that a handle of the hairbrush extends outside of the hairbrush cavity;
- and
- a sensor for determining presence of the hairbrush within the hairbrush cavity;
- and
- wherein a blower heater assembly supplies heated air to an air supply plenum duct which feeds the heated air through inlet apertures in the hairbrush cavity in order to heat the hairbrush received within the hairbrush cavity;
- the hairbrush cavity further comprising outlet apertures that supply air from the hairbrush cavity to an air return plenum duct to return to a blower heater, forming a continuous circuit within the housing of air cycling between the blower heater assembly and the hairbrush cavity via the air supply plenum duct and the air return plenum duct;
- the blower heater operable to selectively generate heat based upon a signal from the sensor indicating the hairbrush is present within the hairbrush cavity;
- and
- wherein the heated air is configured for providing heat to the portion of the hairbrush received within the hairbrush cavity including the plurality of hairbrush bristles without heating the handle of the hairbrush.
