Who needs GHD's?

Advantages: Heats up in 60 seconds! and works well
Disadvantages: The switch is in an awkward position and can be accidently turned off during use

I have naturally curly hair, that I do like most of the time but it is nice to have a change every so often! I used to own some steam hair straightners and thought that they were pretty good but I then got given this as a gift for Christmas and it is amazing! The straightner itself is very slim and fits nicelly into your hands...alot easier than some of these big chunky ones! AND it comes with a little storage bag a comb and some sectioning clips! ...
...to use it, so whipped out the instructions, even though its pretty easy to figure out how to use it, though I wanted to make sure I didn't break them! The straightner simply plugs in, you switch on the the switch and a little red light comes on and in 60 seconds its ready to use! its great, for some straightners you can be waiting for ages for them to heat up! As it was heating up I did notice a strange kind of smell, not an unbearable smell but ...

Get gorgeous straight hair

Advantages: heats up in 60 seconds, does what it says,
Disadvantages: on-off switch

...My brother bought me some Remington Hair Straighteners. After all the raving about GHD, I was worried how these would be in comparison, and I will tell you, I wasn’t disappointed with them. Firstly, you can’t help but notice how slim and comfy they feel to hold. They are reasonably light, and there is little difference between the look of them to the GHD model. It may sound cliché, but they really do what they say on the box. ‘Ceramic-coated plates ...
...thick hair’ My hair is below my shoulder and quite thick, and most defiantly uncared for. When I ran the straighteners down the first section of hair, I delighted to find it straighter than my hair had been with several attempts of my Babyliss straighteners. On my hair it takes 1 or 2 run throughs on the front, and about 3 on the back. Although to some this may seem a lot, take into account that with my old straighteners it would take up to an hour ...

Want a Good Hair Day at a third of the price?

Advantages: a LOT LOT cheaper than GHD
Disadvantages: storage bag is flimsy

...before I decided upon the Remington ones. The were marked up at £34.99 with free sectioning comb, clips and storage bag. Bargain! I thought. So I went to the till were the price came up at £29.99, even better! I know that this is VERY cheap in the ceramic straighteners world so I thought that I could try them and if they were not very good I could return them. I didn't need to. They are very good. They look just like ghd straighteners in size and ...
...has well. They only have one heat setting so if you have very thick/course hair they may not be as good, but for my own hair they are. For them to work it is simply a case of plugging them in turning them on and they are ready to go in 60 seconds. The box states that the ceramic coating gives even heat distribution and that they glide smoothly through even long thick hair. The straighteners have an heat distribution pad at the tip so that you ...

My saviours.

Advantages: Value for money, excellent results,
Disadvantages: You will need to use some sort of product to prevent your hair being damaged.

All of my life I have suffered with hair that is neither curly or straight. I wouldn't mind which it was, but it has never really been either. My hair is also very thick so styling it has always been such a nightmare. When GHD's came out they seemed to be the thing that would put an end to my misery. However I couldn't justify spending that much money to my boyfriend, for the sake of making my hair straight. These however, are fantastic. I have never ...
...wanted. They can straighten even large sections of hair in a very quick space of time and heat up in about 30 seconds. After I had been using them for a while I did notice my hair was getting damaged though. I had heard about using a product on my hair prior to straightening, but whatever I tried it just left my hair feeling like, well, it had product in it. I have finally found a winning combination. Ordinary shampoo. Frizz-Ease Miraculous Recovery ...

Every day's a good hair day

Advantages: cheap, effective
Disadvantages: havent found any yet

...comes to me but the Remington Power Ceramic are a legend unto themselves. I found them purely by accident and at £12.50 i figured it was a sign, almost as if the goddess of hair had put them there for me to find. ~~~~~THE LOOK OF IT ALL~~~~~ The straightners themselves are very slimline and easy to get back into the original box. Mine are navy blue with snazzy lime green & white writing showing the brand and type but with going OTT. The cord is ...
...getting ready for a girls night out (i.e. listening to music & straightening at the same time so it leaves dancing room). There's also an on off switch so you can leave them plugged in al the time, just switch them on as and when you need them. ~~~~~THE EFFECT~~~~~ These straightners are a legend! I wash my hair once every three days and if I straighten it on the day i wash it the effects are still mostly there three days later, I think its only ...

Ceramic Straighteners

Advantages: The speed they heat up. Long cable. The heat!
Disadvantages: Keep accidentally switching them off when using them

Every time I go to the hairdressers, they use their GHD ceramic £100+ ago set of straighteners on my hair and I walk out feeling like a princess with stupidy straight hair which shines and doesn't mess up and go frizzy in the slightest of breezes. Could never bring myself to spend that much money on straighteners myself, but I suppose if you add up at the cost of all the pairs I have bought in my search to find a cheap but effective alternative, ...
...Until I bought my Reminigton Straighteners! They heat up to full capacity in about 10 seconds, and the plates are set back enough from the edges to protect your knuckles and fingers, which if your anything like me, always burn when straightening. Once I've straighened my hair before work in the morning and got on the train, I spend most of the morning worrying about whether or not I turned off my straighteners, and if my house would be burnt down ...

lets straighten that kinkyness

Advantages: Fast heat up time
Disadvantages: not solid ceramic

These starighteners look very professional, they have a high heat up time, a sleek look and glide really easily through your hair without making that crunching sound that other cheap straighteners do! They also come with 4 free stylingclips which is good for sectioning. They also have a red light to tell you when there the correct heat. The only problem is that i had to take mine back twice as the ceramic had started to peel and chip off frequently!.. ...

Advantages: cheap, 60 second heat up, super smooth straight hair, lasts until you next wash your hair
Disadvantages: after regular use the ceramic comes off as they are not solid only coated

...mine introduced me to the remington power ceramic straighteners and they had just as good results. Eventually we started a bit of a cult in our year at school because they were such good value. I only straighten my hair once a week to minimise damamge but my one friend was straightening hers every day and also using them at school to straighten other peoples when we noticed the ceramic coming off after she straightened one girls hair that was extremely ...
