Advantages: long cable, fast heat up Disadvantages: they get very hot, very quickly so risk of buring yourself if not careful
After my old strighteners gave up the ghost I decided to buy a new, ceramic pair. After searching the internet, I found these straighteners at a good price with a impressive list of specifications so decided to give them a go. Firstly, they are distinctive colour; I have not seen any other cream coloured straighteners around. The long cord is especially handy if your plug sockets are not particularly close to any mirrors! They heat up very quickly ... ...for at least the rest of the day too.

Tourmaline is made of crushed gems/jewels. The straighteners also have 25 variable heat settings, which I liked the idea of. There is an on/off switch, and the 25 heat settings are on a separate dial feature, I have found the setting number 6 to be ample enough to straighten my hair.
Once I got the straighteners, I was absolutely surprised, by how quickly they heated up, within a few seconds ...

I am not the best at taking good care of my hair but every now and then I try. One of the things I never do to my hair is blow dry it, it gets way too frizzy. I live on hall at Uni and so I have limited space which means getting one of those regular... more
When my first GHD straighteners unexpectedly broke after only 1 year of use I was completely at a loss. I didn't want to shell out another £100 for straighteners which wouldn't last so I rushed to Argos to see what I could find.
