Vidal Sassoon Straightener.

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: No different temperature settings

...The Vidal Sassoon VS 5311 hair straightener is a straightener which has hugely benefited fromt he latest technology. Vidal Sassoon are a very well-known and highly respected brand for making straighteners, hair dryers, blow dryers, curling tongs and many more. The straighteners are a classic and simple design but are still excellent for straightening your hair with. The colour of them also helps them to keep the heat in as they are black and black absorbs heat. It has a logn wire which makes it convenient to use as you don't have to be near the socket all the time. It does not have different temperature settings but it does reach a high temperature in a short period of time which makes it easy to use for everyone....

GHD Styler - hair straighteners that save time and effort!

Advantages: heats up quickly! straightens, curls and creates waves! turns off automatically if left on!!
Disadvantages: can't straighten when hair is wet

...I have always been sceptical when it comes to buying an item that ?everyone has/wants?; which is why when it came to the time to decide what to buy to straighten my hair, I was hesitant to select one from the GHD range. Their obviously higher prices seemed to be more for a one of Christmas or birthday present, not something solely for vanity purposes! However, when I came to finally decide to buy this product, I was AMAZED. Truly, coming from someone who loves to do her hair all the time and takes pride in her appearance, this product certainly shaved off so much time from my daily routine. I can straighten and curl with it, which makes things so much easier. It?s great for the daytime look, and for the evening outs ? when you want to change your usual appearance. It heats up quickly, which makes it even more convenient. After it...

VIDAL SASSOON HAIR HYDRATION VS514DE HAIR DYER

Advantages: UNIQUE IONIC TECHNOLOGY, 2000WATT MOTOR, CERAMIC HEATER, LONG CORD, FIVE YEAR INTERNATIONAL WARRAN
Disadvantages: RATHER HEAVY AND LARGE

...I'd been shopping round for some new hair care products as presents for my twelve year old daughter. She was very keen on GHD but they are way over-priced and the reviews I've read on their performance are mediocre. So I got her some Toni & Guy straighteners and then came across the Vidal Sassoon Hair Hydration Hair Dryer. Now initially I was surprised as I thought the whole point was to dry and not hydrate the hair and I also had connotations of having to put water in the device; and we all know that electricity and water generally do not mix! My fears were soon allayed when I discovered that the 'hydration' is achieved by the hairdryer mixing negative charged ions with the warm air stream which not only aids faster drying but also helps retain the hair's natural moisture, leaving it feeling soft and smooth and looking naturally...

A Very Very Good Hair Day!

Advantages: Heat very quickly, Thin irons are perfect for men and women
Disadvantages: None

...After having very short and spiky hair for most of my teens and early 20's, I decided earlier this year that I need a change and decided to grow my hair. When it got to a certain length, I purchased a pair of £20 straighteners from a supermarket. Being the 'typical' man, I decided that straighteners were straighteners, and I was not going to pay over the odds for a product that would no doubt do the job just as well. After getting sick and tired of waiting about 5 minutes for my straighteners to heat up, and about 45 minutes trying to get my hair straight, I decided on the recomendation of my friend to purchase a pair of the GHD mini thin straighteners. They come in a neatly presented box, with quite stylish packaging. The box had instructions on how to use and safety advice, which I would recomend reading due to the heat factor...

Review of Ghd Mini Styler - Hair Straighteners

The Amazing Pink Straighteners!!

Advantages: creates beautifully straight hair
Disadvantages: none

...A lot of people class GHDs as the top brand in straighteners, but as I had never used any GHDs before, I was slightly disbelieving as to their performance. However, I soon discovered once I owned a pair that they deserve the praise and fantastic reviews they receive. They are a stunning piece of technology, which have none of the faults or criticisms which some other brands have. I was given my straighteners for Christmas, but wanted to really test them properly before writing my review. I didn't want to just write away with my rose-tinted glasses on!! I have to say though that I needn't have waited, I have not been disappointed with them. I have naturally curly/wavy hair, which once blow dried seems to triple in size, and becomes a big, fluffy, frizzy mess. Over the years I have despaired so much, and was so thrilled when I bought...

Vidal Sassoon Microcrystal Straighteners

Advantages: AMAZING! Low price, digital, lasting effect
Disadvantages: None!

...I've been in need of some new straighteners for months but I just couldn't justify spending over £100 on GHD's, no matter how good they are. But then I found the amazing Vidal Sassoon Microcrystal Straigheners. They are just as good as GHD and less than half the price! They make my hair super straight and shiny and it lasts all day, even if I put my hair up for a while, when I take it down it is STILL straight. It's even pretty straight when I sleep on it. My hair is quite frizzy but these take away all the frizz and just leave it super sleek and shiny :) Another fab thing about them is that they are digital, you can control the temperature and the temperature is shown on a little screen. Neat huh? And they are a lovely pinky purple colour so very girly :) Also they have a swivel chord so no more getting tangled up...

Excellent Straighteners & a Great Gift

Advantages: Durable, Perfect Straight Hair, So Simple To Use
Disadvantages: Don't use on wet hair it damages them

...I won't go into amazing detail as there are so many good reviews on here but i bought these for my girlfriend as she kept borrowing out her old GHD's which her friend seemed to ruin and she loves them. She is a hairdresser and swears by GHD she should actually just change jobs and promote them that?s how passionate and convincing she can be. And to quote her in some way - Yes they are more expensive than most of the other brands but unless you are really unlucky you will never need to own another pair of straighteners again as they are so good and durable. The fact that she can do hers & my hair in just one stoke achieving perfect straightness is amazing and after seeing others struggle and steam go flying into the hair i recommend you spend the extra pennies because it is worth it. For £119 get them for yourself, girlfriend whoever...

Vidal Sassoon VS880, my worst buy of 2007

Advantages: look quite stylish
Disadvantages: poor heat levels, vibrates, doesn't straighten hair

...A change in hairstyle and a move away from the stereotypical Cypriot curly hair means that I now have to straighten my hair on a daily basis otherwise I start to look like I've been dragged through a hedgerow backwards by my head. On the recommendation of my stylist I purchased a set of Vidal Sassoon VS880 hair straighteners from the salon for £24.99 to keep my hair looking like it had just been styled. I had no reservations making the purchase as my stylist had used the same make and model when it was originally styled and having heard bad things about the unreliability of GHD hair straighteners I happily left thinking I had a bargain. I have since found this make and model for as low as £12.99 online and can understand why. Having tried to use them to straighten my hair for a week after first buying them, each time the results were...

GHDS= Great Hot Devine Straighteners

Advantages: Produces a sleek sexy look
Disadvantages: Cant think of any

...These pink ghds limited edition were retailing at around £119 a pair. They heat up in under twenty second- when the little red LED has stopped flashing they are ready to use and it also makes a funny noise to let you know when they are ready. The straighteners irons themselves are solid ceramic, not ceramic plated like most straighteners. This means an evenly hot distribution of heat through out the plates. They can get very hot and they heat uo to a maximum temperature of 210 degrees alowing them to produce a poker straight finish. To get the best result you shout section your hair into different parting and straighten it in sections it may take a little longer but will give you a better overall outcome. Applying certain hair products to your hair after its straight will allow you to have sleek shiny hair. I would recommend ghds to...

Review of Ghd Limited Edition Styler - Hair Straightener

Great for short thin hair

Advantages: Heat very quickly
Disadvantages: Unable to cope with my thick hair

...I bought these recently as I cannot live without my older larger plated GHD's and thought that these would be a handy alternative. They do heat in under 3 seconds and have the same excellent ceramic plates as the larger version, however I found them very time consuming. I have very thick hair about shoulder length and unlike their larger cousins they were unable to straighten as effectively . On saying that they were brilliant on my fringe. I would recommend these to anyone with shorter or thin hair. A fashion conscientious male friend of mine used these and loved them and were perfect for his short hair. I would recommend using the straightening oil with these as they are very hot and I did find a few burnt strands of hair ....
