Electrician type place

Hello, My brothers girlfriends hair straightener broke during the week. I'm pretty sure it's an electrical fault because when you hold it at a certain angle it comes on. Where is the best place to drop it off and try and fix it? Thanks

I've taken apart numerous types of these. 99% of the time it's people wrapping the lead too tightly that they kink it and it breaks! My advice is buy a new one and treat it better as the cost too strip it down, re saulder the connections and put it back together would be more then the thing is worth!
