OT electricians

Both of my daughter's bedroom (side-by-side, separate breakers) keep flipping their respective breaker on electrical panel.
What is the process for elimination to figure which outlet is doing it?
I ask, because as soon as I reset the breaker, it immediately flips again. I've already had to reset the breaker 3 times this morning, within a 5 minute period.

Unplug the flat irons.
Actually unplug an turn off everything. Does it still throw?

They blow drying their hair?

If they are using appliances that draw a lot of amps(hair dryers, curling irons, flat irons, clothes irons) those arc fault breakers trip with the quickness.

So, two separate breakers in the panel are tripping?
Are they side by side? If so, what is across from them? As others have said, unplug as much as you can.

Why does everyone say millenials should just become electricians because no one wants to fix anything, but the unions don't pay apprentices well and it takes five years to just become a journeyman which still makes like only 20 an hour? Do you need to have your own company?

Are the breakers labeled as "arc fault" breakers?
