You can purchase transformers that will convert 220V to 110V at reasonable prices. You will also need a plug adaptor to convert Bangladesh plugs to North American plugs. Go to a store that specializes in electric appliances, or talk to a travel agent about exactly what you need.Will my hair curler n hair straightener work in asia?
No. The US is 110v and just about everywhere is 220v or 240v. So unless your device is 250v compliant it will probably explode if you plug it in. Check the area around the cord, the US requires that they list the AC power rating for every commercial device. The adaptors you buy are only for electronics that are 250v compliant or have a step down transformer.
