Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

...a set of the original ghd straighteners for a few years, which I was very impressed with, but with the amount of hair that I have it still took a long time to straighten it all. Eventually after me dropping them a few too many times my old straighteners begun to play up and I decided it was time to invest in some more. I stuck to the GHD brand as I had been so impressed with them, but this time chose the large salon styler (the newer model). At £116 ...
...wider plates than the other GHD straighteners do. This makes them more suitable for people with longer, thicker or Afro Caribbean hair. They have a slightly rounded barrel so that they can still be used to create curls, flicks and waves although they are not as good for this as the narrower straightening irons. This newer model has a built in sleep mode which is very useful if you are pigeon brained like me and have a tendency to leave them on by ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

...to type this again, but GHD is brilliant because you get soft shiney smooth hair - I don't use conditioner any more. There's no need. My hair doesn't seem to get damaged by the intense heat, but it is recommended that ALL skin is kept WELL AWAY. My sister swore she got distracted once when using GHD, and they turned her ear 'crispy'. Ew. Oh, and 'Ouch'. The longer you use GHD on one strip of hair, the straighter, softer, and smoother it becomes. ...
...each! I find the GHD shampoo and conditioner products useful, expecially if you're going out, or a special occasion, after all, they are around £15 each... 'Ouch'. Oh, and they heat up very very very quickly. Plug 'em in, wait for the red light to flash, and oh, you can 'iron' your hair! Literally takes seconds. I love watching my hair steam as well. Most people use a comb, but I find a 'vent' brush quite handy, either get 'em from poundland ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

...wouldn't heat up enough yet GHD people swapped them straight over for a new pair in ever case. Oh and also, the plug works abroad, you just pull off the normal plug to reveal a european one, then clip it on when your done!! With the thinner versions it is possible to curl you hair, yet these make it harder due to the thickness of the panels, but i feel its something you just have to work at to perfect!! Personally i like my hair dead straight so ...
...out clubbing or in a hot humid country! I would honestly sugest these to anyone contemplating buying a new pair of straighteners. They ae amazing value for money and the results are unlike that of any other straightener! Your hair is left smooth and shiny and noticably thinner to look at, although it can get damaged due to the heat so make sure you use good products to keep it in good condition - but this happens with any straightener! ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

...and splashed out on these GHD Salon-strength straighteners, as the description said that this particular model was specifically designed for thick hair. I tried them as soon as they arrived and I was absolutely amazed at the results. My long, thick hair was transformed into a sheek, shining and STRAIGHT head of hair in a mere 15 minutes. And unlike the many other types of straighteners I'd tried, my hair actually stayed straight for the next 2 days ...
...heatproof mat, which comes in extremely useful, as the straighteners reach very high temperatures extremely quickly. A small LED lets you know when they are at the right temperature to use (this only takes a maximum of 3 minutes). I also received a complementary bottle of thermal hair protector spray. At first I did not use this, as I have used so many lotions and potions on my hair in the past, I didn't see why this would be any different. But I ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

Last christmas i was bought these ghds , after wanting them for ages but not having the money for them. This particualar styler has wide plates which is easy too use on thick hair - like mine. Although they are highly priced at around one hundred pounds , they are worth every single penny. I use them most morning and find them quick too heat up - generally under a minute. They also straighten my hair quickly and effectivly. Although the heat on ...
...over any other brand of hair straightners that i have used over the years , my hairdresser has also told me that they are better for your hair despite the intense heat - you only have too run them over a section of hair once too straighten it. The only problem i have with these straighters is on my fringe - i find the thick plates seem too place it wrongly. All in all , if you are thinking about purchasing these , i would go for it , they are definatly ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

I cannot stress how lost i would be if i didn't have these! I decided i'd had enough of cheap straightners and bought the wider plated straightners, which are a lot better if you have longer or thicker hair. I have never had a problem with them since i bought them,which was about a year and a half ago. They heat up extremely quick! which makes them ideal for the last minute morning rushes and they are hot in just 30 seconds.They straighten the hair ...
...over the same piece of hair, it just sorts out kinks and curls in a matter of minutes. Although, if you are going to be using them day after day then i would recommend also buying a heat protecting spray as they can cause split ends and damaged hair if used too often, and if you want curls then it is probably best to go with the thinner style. However, as far as the straightners go, there are no problems at all. ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

Althought there quite expensive i use my GHDs loads and i have had them for over a year and there still working just as well! You can straighten you hair a lot quicker and they heat up very quickly so you dont have to wait around for them to heat up. One thing i would say is that they are extremly hot meaning easy to burn yourself with and they can do more damage to your hair but the advantage to the heat is that you dont need to keep going over ...
...colour of them is also very attractive and aesthetically pleasing, the ceramic plates help them glide along your hair easily leaving a sleek finish. I would recommend buying them as i could not live without them as they make straightening yourhair so easy and you can leave your hair a lot straighter than usual and in a lot less time overall. ...

The newer larger GHD Hair Straighteners are perfect for thick, long hair. I did used to have the normal GHD's before the new larger ones came out and have noticed a differenced. It used to take me about 20 - 30 minutes to give my hair a good going over. Now it takes me 10 - 15 minutes. These are very efficient and do a good overall job that lasts for a full day. I suffer from frizzy thick hair and cannot find any other straighteners that do the ...

...my friends got the narrow GHD straighteners and it takes them absolutely ages to use them, especially if they want poker straight hair. However, I can be done in about 5 minutes and I have very long and thick hair. I have also seen no difference in the condition of my hair since I started using my straighteners and I know that some can dry the hair out. I know a few people who have had the thin straighteners and they have blown up and had to be ...

...better with some of the GHD Styling Products, which i also own. The large Ceramic plates make straightening hair quicker as it covers a larger space of hair. It smooths out kinks and frizz without having to go over it multiple times. It is suitable for all kinds of hair type and length. I would recommend it more for longer hair as the plates make straightening longer hair easier. In my opinion, these are the best GHD's out of the collection. I feel ...

Review of Ghd Salon Hair Straighteners & Styler Large

As a novice to straightening my long, thick and naturally curly hair, I am extremely impressed with the ease of use and instant effects of these straighteners. My friend used Babyliss ones to straighten my hair for me before I bought these and they took twice as long and my hair wasn't as straight as with these GHD's. The wide plates allow bigger sections of hair to be done at a time without losing any of the straightening power! Extremely quick ...
...hold; I cannot fault them. My hair stays smooth and straight even after sleeping on it (with a run through of a brush and spritz of spray), and lasts until the next wash (a good few days). I have been using Lee Stafford P2Fifty heat protection spray before straightening then Frizz Ease moisture defence hairspray to finish. They are expensive (best deal I found was £86.00 plus £2.00 p&p with next day delivery from The Funky Group website) but definately ...
