your not suppose to use household extension cords with any blow dryers, hair irons, kitchen appliance, air conditioners & vacuum cleaners. for those types of items you have to use those bright orange ones that you see on construction sites. (it all depends on the voltage)

those household extension cords should be used for televisions, media centers, portable fans.

& surge protectors should be used for computers.

edited to add:
after the kitchen wall went on fire because of an old AC & at the same time my sister started an electrical fire in her outlet due to having her iron plugged into an extension cord, my dad freaked & tossed all the extension cords into the garbage.

Well look at it this way... at least your gorgeous hair didn't light on fire!
(i've had that happen)
Sorry you have bum luck with electronics lately though
