Optionally, the bottom surface of the U-shaped groove is obliquely arranged, having a proximal point close to the side notch and a distal point far away from the side notch, and the horizontal position of the distal point is higher than that of the proximal point.
Optionally, the hair fork is provided with a magnet, the out cylinder is equipped with a Hall sensor in telecommunication connection with the circuit board; the hair fork turns an angle so that the avoiding space corresponds to the side notch, the Hall sensor senses the magnet and transmits a signal to the circuit board so as to control the hair fork to stop rotating by the driving assembly.
Optionally, the hair fork includes a rotating base and two shifting pieces extending from one side of the rotating base. The rotating base is connected to the driving assembly. The two shifting pieces are spaced apart from each other to form two of the avoiding spaces facing each other, upper ends of the two shifting pieces are both provided with hooks for catching the hair.
Optionally, the horizontal position of the distal point is flush or tends to be flush with the end of the hair fork.
Optionally, the end of the curling bar extends out to the first cavity and forms a holding part for a finger.
Optionally, the heating member is a PTC electrical corrugated heating element, formed with an airflow cavity for airflow to pass through.
Optionally, one side of the hair fork extends at least two shifting pieces.

The hair fork is driven to make a circular movement around the curling bar so that the hair is wound on the outside face of the curling bar.
The heating member and the fan are started, and the airflow generated by the fan forms a hot airflow after passing through the heating member; the hot airflow enters a second cavity of the curling bar and passes through the ventilation grooves of the curling bar and then is blown to the outside face of the curling bar to form a 360° C. circular air blowing, so as to shape the hair on the outside face of the curling bar. After the shaping is finished, the heating member is turned off, and the fan is maintained to work, the airflow blown out from the curling bar is cold. Since at this time, the hair on the outside face of the curling bar is at a high temperature, when the cold airflow contacts the hair at a high temperature, it can be quickly cooled and shaped.
