GHD V Gold Classic Styler Review

I purchased my pair of GHDs to replace a remington set 6 years ago and they still work as well as the day I got them! They have a sleek design and a non tangle cord (which is brilliant) and are really easy to hold making them simple to use. I have a thick head of long hair and i get get my hair poker straight in 15-20 mins with my GHDs. I only wish there was a variable temp control (but lets be honest, I'd still always use them on full!) I bought a set of wide plate Cloud 9s last year and although I prefer these (the wider plates get the job do e just a bit quicker) I still wouldnt hesitate to buy another set of GHDs. Theyre expensive, but you really do get what you pay for!

These are great straighteners, did the job really well. Left my hair smooth and silky as well as straight. I would definitely use again and recommend to a friend but I think there are cheaper options that do the same job

In the bad old days pre-GHD I used Remington straighteners and it would take me an hour to do my long fine yet wavy hair - and even then I would be left with a bit of a frizz bomb.

GHD's are a million times better than this - it only takes me 10 - 15 minutes to do my hair! However there is still the odd kink and bits of frizz, it never ends up as sleek as my hairdresser can get it - even when I used GHD branded hair product.

Despite this I think they're pretty darn fabulous - I wouldn't go back to the Remmies that's for sure!

Ever since I bought my first GHDs I have been in love, I would never consider using anything else. I would like to try and smaller ones with curved plates for curling though as I have never quite mastered the technique with my flat plated ones.

I like my hair to be very smooth and straight i find the classic does a much better job at it then the gold classic, the gold classic plates are designed to be able to curl easier by gliding through the hair, i find it takes longer to straighten my hair with it

I really like this product, being a hairdresser i used these a lot on clients, the plates are so smooth so they glide through the hair and leave a nice finish. Also great for curling as they glide through hair which makes it easy and hassle free!

I do love my GHD's they last for ages, have had mine for years. I do wish that they would introduce a temperature control setting as I have such fine fine hair I would like to be able to turn down the heat. I haven't used them as much lately because of this.

I have been through 3 GHD's over the years, loved every one of them! I only had a problem with my 2nd one (the precious edition) where the switch kept flicking on and off, but it was an easy and cheap fix! I have fine hair so it was easy and quick for me to straighten. The only thing I WISH my GHD had was the ability to change the temperature setting. At the start of the year, I had my GHD stolen (boo hoo!) and chose to change to a Cloud 9 straightener and love the fact that I can change the temperature to more suit my fine hair and reduce the damage a high heat setting can cause. Overall, still amazing!!

I brought my GHD when they first came out. At first the price put me off but once i saw the results, i was sold!! I love my GHD, use it at least 3 times per week and after 10 years of use and still gong strong, its money well spent!
