When we purchase a piece of technology it's generally an investment right? We set ourselves a maximum budget and we buy the best product we can afford, and use it until it no longer works. But here's the thing about technology - it's always moving forward!
What was top of the line 5 years ago (heck, even 1 year ago) is now the equivalent of a Tamagotchi compared to a Nintendo Switch. Of a Nokia 6310 to an iPhone 13. And hair technology is no different.
Compare straighteners now to straighteners 5 years ago. The difference is astounding! We now know the importance of choosing straighteners with plates that evenly distribute heat. We know different hair types require different maximum temperatures. And how many of us have been saved by the handy auto-switch off function?!
And by using old technology straighteners, chances are you're actually damaging your hair - so rather than waiting for them to die the ultimate techno-death, it's time to reassess your current straighteners now!
We're putting together a really exciting trial team which will see 20 reviewers put a brand new straightener to the test. Here's where it gets interesting. These aren't hitting retail stores until around the November 1st and we can't publicly talk about them until then. Neither can the trial team! We can say they are going to retail for $439.99 and are based on the latest in STEAM straightening technology. Christmas really will come early for the members of this trial team!
Steam Technology.
- Steam technology acts as a conditioning mist, infusing hair with moisture while transforming it into long-lasting, poker straight hair that shines and feels soft and satiny.
- The mystery straighteners offer you the option to use the base station to automatically fill the straightener in seconds, or you can fill the straightener reservoir directly.
- The plates are titanium plates, max wide and cushioned to provide the ulitimate temperature stability for poker straight hair in one pass.
- There's a removable detangling comb that allows for 3D straightening, sectioning and detangling hair as you style it!
- You'll experience super controlled styling with 5 heat settings up to 220°C and integrated sensors to prevent excessive heat.
- Hair will stay straight for at least 24 hours!
WE KNOW!! It sounds amazing!!
So if you'd like to put your hand up to trial this super secret, super amazing product you'll need to take our survey to put your hand up.

Then why not come back here and tell us all about your current straighteners - we'd love to hear how old they are, what technology they utilise and if they need an upgrade!
So I think my GHD wide plates are like maybe close to 10 years old lol I’ve used them quite a lot over the years and they have been worth the money we paid for them I actually would be lost without them but I also have a little mini L’Oréal straighter which is perfect for my fringe/side part that is forever crinkly and I’ve had that for prob 5/6 years.
