A hair styling appliance is described having a pair of electrodes, a chamber located between the electrodes for receiving a section of hair, and a drive unit for applying an alternating voltage to the electrodes to heat the hair dielectrically. The appliance also has a pair of arms having an open position and a closed position. The arms grip the hair when in the closed position, and at least one of the arms is moveable relative to each of the electrodes.

A hair styling appliance is described having a first electrode and a second electrode, and a drive unit for applying alternating voltages to the electrodes to heat dielectrically hair located between the electrodes. The drive unit applies a first alternating voltage to the first electrode and a second alternating voltage to the second electrode, and the second alternating voltage is phase shifted relative to the first alternating voltage.
