Good hair days

Recently it was my birthday and “the family” decided to spoil me with a new pair of GHDs. My old ones were 10 years old at least?? I was getting some colour put in my hair and they were sitting there all alone staring at me while my colour was developing and I couldn’t leave them there.

The difference is noticeable. Definitely lighter in the body than my last GHD straightener and easier to control or pinch together. Has a very sleek look and easier to clean. Theres more of a shine to the new set whereas my old pair has quite a rough surface that scratches easily. So newbies are very easy to wipe down. Prettier also with its decoration embossing on them vs my old dull grey pair.

These slide over my hairs surface straightening so effortlessly. They don’t snag or slow like my old pair. Don’t get me wrong my old pair were good but these are amazing. Takes about 1-2min to straighten my hair. And it’s smoother and straighter than it’s been in the past.

Same warm up and shut off time which is a must but much needed. Handy this time around is the accessories as it comes with a plate guard. I did purchase one for my old pair but it too was showing it’s age.

Best straightener ever

I have owned a gold series for over 7 years now and it has never broken down. I have very long thick curly hair (2c type for curly hair girls) It only takes me around 25 mins to completely dead straighten my hair. Other straighteners can take over an hour. My hair comes out smooth and shiny. Often I forget to turn it off and it beeps to warn you of that which is great. Honestly the best $300 I have ever spent. Only downside is that you cannot adjust the heat setting in my older style one.

Straight

These were the first hair straighteners I brought Total class black and gold ceramic plates. A on and off button and a flashing led light to let you know when there are good to use. A swivel cord as to stop the cord twisting.

These are pretty basic, but have been going strong for years and years. They don’t grab my hair and are wide enough to try and make a curl. These straighten my hair to perfection, They are easy to use as they do glide through my hair. They do make it easy to do I just section my hair and away I go, they open wide enough and close with the lightest pressure. They have not missed a beat they have been going strong for years and years I don’t know if I could buy better as I’m sitting here writing about them thinking I must give them a clean, except for a burn on the cord and a little wear around the ceramic plates they are still doing the job. I’ve definitely had value for my money with these.

Tips: Buy a heat prof holder to put them in And go nice and slow and steady A little heat protection spray and dry hair x

Gold

I love my GHDs. They weren’t cheap but have been worth the money in my opinion. I have thick dry hair and it takes a lot to tame my mane.

These cut through the natural wave and leave me with straight hair. Even better I can do a light curl quick and easy. It doesn’t take much effort to style it for a night out with these. I follow the nz Instagram and get lots of inspiration on there so highly recommend that.

Also a huge and important feature that I love is the automatic turn off. No worries when I head out that I have or haven’t turned it off as I know it would have turned itself off.

Must have!

GHD is my go to! A must have!

I have very thick, full and wavy hair so I'm very thankful that they came out with these products. It looks sleek, beautiful, modern with beautiful gold detailing and it's extremely light. It has a lovely long cord. I like the new turn on/off switch. It heats up very fast and straightens my hair with ease. It doesn't burn my hair for leave it frizzy.

I do have very long and thick hair so even though it does straighten my hair is does take a while; not as long as other brands I've tried.

Everyday is a great hair day

After trying several other straighteners with not a lot of success I was given a set of these and now wonder why I bothered with the others! They heat up very quickly, are easy to manoeuvre, leave a great finish and don't dry out my hair.

An old faithful

I have literally had my GHD for about 9 years and it works just as well as it did when I first bought it. I paid about $350 from a salon and think it was worth every cent. I don’t often straighten my hair as I work with children and prefer to keep my hair tied back but when I do this tool works beautifully every time. Mine came in a leopard print satin bag and a big bulky velvet box which I don’t use as it takes up so much room. I have very fine hair and it is quite curly but very frizzy so a good straightener is essential. It smooths each hair and can easily be used to do a nice wave. When this tool finally dies I will definitely be purchasing another one as I’ve found it’s the only straightener that really smooths the frizz.

Hair wonder

For someone whose hair can only be described as Brian May in 90% humidity I cannot stress how amazing this straightener is. I have used straighteners for the last 16 years, and this one for 4 of those. And it has no signs of slowing down. It’s sleek design makes it easy to use, the plates are smoothing and gentle on your hair and the heat is not too harsh. My hair stays straight for days following the initial straighten and only requires minor touch ups dependent on humidity. I tend to only wash my hair once a week and this does the trick between washes. It is great for curling also once you get the hang of it.

Tips: Don’t wind the cord around the straigtener to avoid kinks in the cord which can lead to damage.
