If brushing blowdrying my hair makes me look fierce, I don't consider it a waste of energy. This one looks much more efficient, though: http://www.hairpower.com/greentechnologyPR.html Well, I suppose you could also say the production of hairbrushes was a waste of natural resources, but the way one’s hair looks is important to many people.

This one appears to be on the high end @ 1800 watts. There are much more energy efficient hair dryers available. According to the US Dept. of Energy, Hair dryers use 1200-1875 watts of energy.

However, they are useful to dry hair at night and on rainy days. Drying clothes in the sun is also more effective using an electric dryer. However, they are needed sometimes when it rainy or snowy, or you live in Alaska and the sun isn't coming out for another couple months. Yes, hair dryers do use a high amount of electrical energy.

Why not just let the sun dry your hair? "Meta-efficient" or not, it is hard not to think of hair dryers as frivolous uses of electricity. Likewise for clothing dryers. Better to use a clothes line or a wooden drying rack. An added bonus is that your clothing will last longer. Aren’t hair dryers instrinsically wasteful?
