Try blowdrying your hair straight. It does the same thing as a straightener but quicker i think it looks better too. Other wise, you can put your hair in a messy bun or ponytail or somethin cute like that. If you HAVE to have your straightener just put it at the bottom of your bag with TONS of stuff on top. Yea, they will probably move the stuff but only for like 2 seconds and i dont think your dad is going to be watching that closely. WEll, i hope i helped.

Sorry but if you're going to Europe the straightener you're using now won't work their because the voltage(the rate at which energy is drawn from a source that produces a flow of electricity in a circuit) is different, so it'll totally mess it up and won't work. The only way is to buy a new one while you're in Europe, unfortuneately. Hope this helps :)

Dear, unless you are staying on an American cruise ship you wont be able to use your straightener anyways.

The plugs in Europe are different from an American plug. The outlets are shaped differently and provide a different amount of power. Unless you have a converter (which you could buy for about $10 - $20 bucks) no American appliance will even work.

If you do have a converter, wrap the straightened in your underwear or put it in tied close bag with your shampoo and other hair products, throw it in your swim bag if you have one, anything were it is covered will work. Underwear or pajama rolls are particularly good, since your dad wouldn't likely look in them, put a thick sweater works too.

But really, is anyone you know going to see you in Europe? If not, why do you even care about the straightener. Stranger's wont give a damn about your hair and it's just more to lug around the airport. My advice would be to just leave the damn thing at home.

Carry a bag just for you like makeup, magazines,sunglasses and money that kinda stuff. Or take a big purse and put it in there.
