The chargers for those devices generally run on 110VAC to 240VAC. (Confirm by checking the sticker on each charger.) For those you need a simple adapter that converts 2-prong plugs into 2-pin plugs. You can buy them at most dollar stores for $1.

hair straightner, hair dryer

Those are high current devices. You should be able to find converters that step up the voltage at travel stores and even Radio Crap (TSCC.) Some use transformers and are quite heavy. Others use electronics and are much lighter and cheaper. For appliances that use heating elements the latter is adequate as long as it can handle the current (Amps) or wattage (Watts) that your appliances draw.

If you're moving back permanently you may be better off to buy new hair appliances when you get there.
