IEC 60335-2-23:2016 is available as <>
IEC 60335-2-23:2016 is available as IEC 60335-2-23:2016 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
60335-2-23:2016 deals with the safety of electric appliances for the care of skin or hair of persons or animals and intended for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. Examples of appliances that are within the scope of this standard are:
- curling combs;
- curling irons;
- curling rollers with separate heaters;
- facial saunas;
- hairdryers;
- hair straighteners;
- hand dryers;
- heaters for detachable curlers and permanent-wave appliances.
Appliances covered by this standard may incorporate steam-producing or spray-producing devices. Appliances not intended for normal household use but that nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons. However, in general, it does not take into account persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; children playing with the appliance. This standard does not apply to:
- appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;
- appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive  atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas);
- shavers, hair clippers and similar appliances;
- blankets, pads, clothing and similar flexible heating appliances;
- appliances for skin exposure to optical radiation;
- sauna heating appliances;
- cosmetic and beauty care appliances incorporating lasers and intense light sources or appliances intended for medical purposes.
This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2003 including its Amendment 1 (2008) and its Amendment 2 (2012). This edition constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fourth edition of IEC 60335-2-23 are as follows (minor changes are not listed):
- added hair straighteners to the list of examples covered by the standard;
- modified 7.12 to apply to appliances, and not just to hairdryers;

- in 22.103, added a requirement for protection against hair being pulled into hair dryer intake;
- revised Subclause 24.101 to indicate that protective devices shall not be self-resetting and reviewed and converted notes to normative text in Subclauses 19.7, 22.32, and 25.14. It was established on th

IEC 60335-2-23:2016 traite de la sécurité des appareils électriques pour les soins de la peau ou des cheveux des personnes ou des animaux, destinés aux usages domestiques et analogues et dont la tension assignée n'est pas supérieure à 250 V. Des exemples d'appareils compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme sont donnés ci-après:

- les appareils à permanente. Les appareils couverts par la présente norme peuvent comporter des dispositifs à production de vapeur ou à aspersion. Les appareils non destinés à un usage domestique normal, mais qui peuvent néanmoins constituer une source de danger pour le public, tels que les appareils destinés à être utilisés par des utilisateurs non avertis dans des magasins, chez des artisans et dans des fermes, sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme. La présente norme traite des dangers raisonnablement prévisibles présentés par les appareils, encourus par tous les individus. Cependant, cette norme ne tient pas compte en general des personnes (y compris des enfants) dont les capacités physiques, sensorielles ou mentales; ou le manque d'expérience et de connaissance les empêchent d'utiliser l'appareil en toute sécurité sans surveillance ou instruction; de l'utilisation de l'appareil comme jouet par des enfants. La présente norme ne s'applique pas:
- aux appareils prévus exclusivement pour des usages industriels;
- aux appareils destinés à être utilisés dans des locaux présentant des conditions particulières, telles que la présence d'une atmosphère corrosive ou explosive (poussière, vapeur ou gaz);
- aux rasoirs, tondeuses et appareils analogues;
- aux couvertures, coussins, vêtements et appareils chauffants souples analogues;
- aux appareils d'exposition de la peau au rayonnement optique;
- aux appareils de chauffage des saunas;
- appareils destinés aux soins cosmétiques et esthétiques comportant des lasers et des sources de lumière de forte intensité ou aux appareils à usage medical. Cette sixième édition annule et remplace la cinquième édition parue en 2003, son Amendement 1 (2008) et son Amendement 2 (2012). Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications majeures suivantes par rapport à la quatrième édition de l'IEC 60335-2-23 (les modifications mineures ne sont pas répertoriées):
- ajout des lisseurs à la liste d'exemples couverts par la norme;
- modification de 7.12 pour qu'il s'applique aux appareils, et non uniquement aux sèche-cheveux;

- exemption des sèche-cheveux installés à poste fixe et des sèche-mains installés à poste fixe de la fourniture d'un autre format d'instructions;
- exclusion des surfaces des parties frisantes amovibles de l'exigence relative à l'échauffement au Paragraphe 11.8;
- clarification dans le Paragraphe 19.7 précisant que l'appareil ne doit pas émettre de flammes après l'essai;
- clarification de la méthode d'essai et des critères de conformité au Paragraphe 21.101;
