Advantages: Poker straight hair, easy to use, fab looks

Disadvantages: A bit pricey

These are the best straightners I have ever owned! For years I have battled with my curly, matted hair and have used a variety of different products to try and tame it. I did think about getting them for a while as they are faily expensive, mine cost £119 but it was well worth the investment. They also come highly recommended by just about every girl I know so I definitely had to get them. They came in a nice box with a bottle of the GHD heat treatment spray and a demonstration DVD to show you how best to use them. I got them about 6 months ago now and still have some of the spray left so that was a nice addition.

GHD's were first sold in the late 90's and due to some clever marketing (ie women coveting these so much that they will do anything to get their hands on a pair) they have become a must have item.

The beauty about these straighteners are:
They heat up quickly
They straighten quickly
The hot ceramic plates/heaters are so smooth and leave you with a static-free sheen (often a problem with other products) that you really feel you are looking after you hair.
The roundness of the ends also allow you to curl your hair too. You can get lovely wavy curls by twisting small amounts of hair in the straightner and pulling away from your head.


Another nice safety feature is that they have a sleep mode where if you don't use them for 30 minutes or more there turn themselves off so no more having panic attacks at work wondering whether you turned them off or not, I've done that a few times I can assure you!

Another great benefit is that they have universal voltage so you can use them anywhere in the world. I travel to Los Angeles fairly frequently and I just used them there and they were perfect, just like using them at home, no loss of power or lower heat etc like you get with other straighteners when you use a converter.

All in all, even though these straighteners are fairly expensive it is well worth the purchase for ease and quality of use and you will be glad you invested!

Summary: A beauty must for all women - GHD's are your best hair tool ever
