Cloud 9 The Original Iron Review

So my GHD of many years had finally decided to leave me and I was left trying to decide between buying a cloud9 or GHD. After reading Atleast 100 reviews for multiple sites I choose the cloud9.

My experience with cloud9: I have naturally very curly and thick hair which usually takes about any hour to straighten with a GHD, however with the cloud9 it’s halved that time and leaves my hair straight all day. The temperature setting is also really great as you can set it to where you prefer. Would recommend investing in this rather than the new GHDs, there’s no real comparison.

I wouldn't recommend any other hair straightener than a cloud 9. I have had mine for over 5 years now and its still going strong. Touch wood. They are great for my hair type which is thick, course and fizzy. I previously owned a GHD which didn't keep the fizz at bay where the cloud 9 does and it makes my hair feel so much better than other straightners ever did. It heats up quickly. Has an automatic switch off for those odd times you may leave it on with out realizing as well which is brilliant for people like me who are forgetful. The cord is really long so your able to be a long way from the inlet and they are really easy to clean and maintain. Well worth the money!!!!

​I love love love my Cloud9. I prefer over GHD (we have a GHD at the gym I go to, so I get to use both). The cloud 9 has multiple temperature settings ​, so you can adjust to your hair type, and reduce temp for those fine hairs around the face. It heats up super quick! So no waiting around. But the main reason I love, love, love Cloud 9, is the conditioning it provides. My hair is so soft and manageable after I have straightened. It doesn't' feel fried. It feels silky and smooth with a glossy shine. I have NO IDEA how they do it?! But it works. Whatever it is. Had them for about 2 years now, and no faults so far!

I have thick hair, so the 1st hair straightner that I owned was a GHD and that worked a TREAT on my hair. I was so adamant that there would be no other straightener that could work magic on my hair, and then came out Cloud 9 and that just proved me wrong!! Even better that you can adjust the heat, you can turn it down so it doesn't burn your hair or just adjust it to your preference.

Amazing straighteners. Cloud nine just make great styling tools- I can’t fault their hair straightener or the curling wand I have.

They are a great purchase- although very pricey they are one of the best in the market and last for so long. The tools are just stylish and sleek.

They heat up quickly and easy to use. They are daily tame my long and thick hair. I love how smooth my hair looks after using this.

I use a hair protectant before using these. I do love the straight look that the straighteners provide but I also love to mix it up using my curling wand.

Overall I can’t recommend these enough. Five stars for these straighteners.

Such a good straightener!!!! Heats up quickly, turns itself off if you forget to turn it off, easy to use + very smooth on the hair!

So glad I bought this. Ive only used it twice and its done such a better job than any other I owned. My last pair of a different brand were wide plates, the new cloud 9 are standard plates and they take no longer to straighten my hair than the others, with an added bonus that I can actually curl my hair with these! Love the temperature settings so depending on my hairs stress levels I can change to suit.

This is my favourite beauty tool of all. The first hair irons I owned were GHD and I was happy with them until they stopped working after just 3 years :( I bought Cloud 9s to replace them and haven't looked back. They are still going strong 8 years down the track :) They are comfortable to use and don't pull the hair the way cheaper brands tend to. I use them at full temperature on my thick hair and lower the temperature for my fringe where the hair is finer. One of the best things about these is the swivel cord. This allows you to twist and turn the irons comfortably in all directions without the cord tangling up on itself. All frizz is eliminated and my hair is shiny and sleek after straightening. Curls are super easy to do as well. Yes they are costly but in the long run they are a great investment and a wonderful friend!

My very first straightener was the OG of straighteners - 'the GHD' they were the latest and greatest - this however was ten years ago and things have come a long way since then. GHD has now in my opinion been superseded by that of the Cloud 9 technology. You will not regret purchasing the Cloud 9's! They easily combat fluffy,thick or curly hair. They have multiple different heat settings and glide through your hair leaving it silky smooth.

I absolutely LOVE my Cloud 9's!!! After years of GHD I decided to try out Cloud 9. They are by far a superior straightener.

I can straighten my shoulder length hair and fringe in literally 5 minutes. My daughter has also purchased a pair.

If you are looking for a decent reliable straightener then Cloud 9 is the answer.

This can also be used for styling and curling.
