Advantages: Large plates cover more hair
Disadvantages: None

...purchased my first pair of GHD hair straighteners back in 2000 when they first hit the UK market. With my hair being so thick and unmanageable I decided on the chunky salon size straighteners for a bit of extra money. These were possibly the best purchase I have ever made as they have actually made my hair healthier than it has ever been before. Gone are the days of wiry, frizzy hair - hello sleek and tamed tresses. With their extra large plates ...
...straight in humid conditions and GHD are also very good with their customer care, as after 8 years my straighteners unfortunately went on fire in my hand - this was resolved in a matter of minutes with GHD and a brand new pair were soon with me at no cost to myself. Probably the best purchase you will ever make after a house and a car. Talk about value for money! ... Read review

Advantages: The best i've ever had
Disadvantages: Bit expensive

I bought this as i was fed up with my old straightners. I used to have amuch cheaper brand (can't remember which) but it always took at least 45 minutes to straighten my long wavy hair, my hair was curly again by the next day, plus i often got cramp in my arm from holding the irons so tight. I bought my ghd's over the internet from the recognised website, it came the next day with a free heat proof mat and heat protection spray (which makes my hair ...
...It now only takes 15 minutes tops to straighten my hair really thoroughly, and my hair will stay straight until i wash it. This styler version is especially good for creating flicks and curls if you don't want poker straight (which can look a little strange on some people). I have had these ghd's for nearly a year, there is no wear and tear on the iron plates and the handle never gets too hot, they are really easy to use and very effective! ... Read review

MY EXPERIENCE Wellll I bought these straightners last year with my christmas money and there were definetly worth the money!. They make my hair perfectly straight and silky, just the way i like it ,with mininum effort! My hair is neither straight or curly, it is sort of inbetween. I normally just wear it slightly wavy and messy but I started to become bored with this style and wondered how I could get it straight and silky. I decided to try ...
...not having to blow dry my hair before straightening it. When i first tryed them out on hair i couldnt believe the effect it had, it was like i had gone to the hairdressers and had it blow dryed straight except it was even better and so shiny!!. The only problem that i have with them is that sometimes if i use them on my hair and it is very wet, hot water drips out and can burn my skin so i now have to wait about 30 mins after washing my hair to use ...

Advantages: Quick heat up, great on my hair
Disadvantages: expensive

After years of buying cheaper straighteners in the shops my husband bought me these as a christmas present and I have never looked back. They are so quick to heat up and they just glide so smoothly through my hair. I can't believe I've waited so long to get them. They also add a high shine to hair as they straighten and make short work of my thick hair. Although these are expensive for me I think they are well worth it and so far I have not had any ...
