I purchased a hair curler from the UK. The seller told me that it had universal voltage and that I would only need an adapter. However, I don't see that printed anywhere. The voltage reads 230v ~ 5a-60Hz 35W. So do I just need an adapter or a voltage converter? Thanks

Sorry, No straight help here. Although there are places that you can plug in ( with a adapter plug) it will not be in the bathroom. If you plug it into 120 vac it will get warm not hot! The only other possibility is an isolation transformer, wired to add 120 volts to the 120vac house power but you will be pulling more than 10 amps.

You need a voltage converter; 110 V to 230 V, 35 W or higher.
