A haircare appliance

A controller for a haircare appliance, the controller configured to:

• receive an attachment signal indicative of which one of a plurality of attachments is attached to a main unit of the haircare appliance;
• receive a user signal indicative of one of a first type of interaction with a user actuatable element of the haircare appliance and a second type of interaction with the user actuatable element;
• when the user signal is indicative of the first type of user interaction with the user actuatable element, output a first control signal to cause operation of the haircare appliance in a first mode of operation, the control signal based on the attachment signal;
• and
• when the user signal is indicative of the second type of user interaction with the user actuatable element, at least one of:
• output a second control signal to cause operation of the haircare appliance in a second mode of operation, different to the first mode of operation;
• and
• modify a future response of the controller to receipt of a future user signal indicative of the first type of user interaction with the user actuatable element.

A non-transient data carrier comprising machine readable instructions that, when executed, cause operation of one or more controllers of a haircare appliance to:

• receive an attachment signal indicative of which one of a plurality of attachments is attached to a main unit of the haircare appliance;
• receive a user signal indicative of one of a first type of interaction with a user actuatable element of the haircare appliance and a second type of interaction with the user actuatable element;
• when the user signal is indicative of the first type of user interaction with the user actuatable element, output a first control signal to cause operation of the haircare appliance in a first mode of operation, the control signal based on the attachment signal;
• and
• when the user signal is indicative of the second type of user interaction with the user actuatable element, at least one of:
• output a second control signal to cause operation of the haircare appliance in a second mode of operation, different to the first mode of operation;
• and
• modify a future response of the controller to receipt of a future user signal indicative of the first type of user interaction with the user actuatable element.
