Best ghd Hair Straighteners

I’ve always sworn by GHD. My own straightener is about 15 years old, survived a decade in a salon, and still works like a dream. So naturally, I… Read more

bought my daughter her own — same model, newer version. In 2020.

She kept hers in her box up until recently as the first time she used it, she struggled getting a good result. Mine was readily available so she figured she'd use mine while still living at home. It turns out that her straightener has had misaligned plates since the very first day, making it practically unusable. I didn’t realise until recently because she kept borrowing mine.

Today, I finally contacted GHD support to get some help or at least some direction on how to have the plates properly aligned, since the product has never worked as it should. The service I received was honestly appalling. The representative couldn’t have been less helpful if she tried. Every question was met with, “Sorry, we don’t offer that,” “Sorry, we don’t have a service centre,” or “Sorry, you’ll have to find someone yourself,” despite the fact that multiple appliance repairers have already said they can’t service GHD devices.

I wasn’t asking for a refund or a replacement — just basic guidance or an option for repair. Instead, I was left with no answers, no solutions, and no accountability for a product that was faulty from day one.

For a premium brand, this level of customer care is unacceptable. I’ve always recommended GHD to friends and family, but after today, I can't see a reason to continue supporting a product whose company can't be bothered helping it's customers with their faulty workmanship.

Note that in the image with my hand, I am gripping it firmly and you can see the plates are not aligned.

Hands down the best hair straightener! I've had mine for such a long time and it still works like it is brand new. So easy to use to do curls or straight hair. I love it!

Ghd are great – I am so amazed by the ghd it has changed not only my hair but my life as well it makes me feel so comfortable with my hair. Buying a ghd was the best thing I did. It removes the frizz from hair and makes it so straight. I definitely recommend Show details

slightly hotter. My hair since birth is extremely frizzy and the heating isn't hot enough, it takes a longer time to straighten my hair with this. I think 200 minimum works best for me. Also comparing to other companies for some reason ghd always lets off this toxic smell and I need a face mask on, if I don't I get dizzy and extremely tired like I'll pass out so I'm not sure what the thing is made of but it is definitely toxic. The design is light and doesn't burn you when using it which I like and the device lasts a long time without breaking but I did compare my latest ghd gold max to one from 2012 and the older one works slightly better. I also have an old Remington and it works amazing with just a couple of passes, even though heavier and bulky it's working better for my hair. Ghd just takes too long and the frizz comes back and the curls too within an hour or two. I just bought a silver bullet so I'm hoping it works better as I can pick which temperature I want.

I’m a hairdresser by trade, have loved GHD straighteners for years. When my jade one broke after like 6 years of course my initial go to was another… Read more

GHD. The platinum was the closest to the one I had. But my gosh is it TERRIBLE. The first one broke inside the warranty period. And while it heats perfectly, it pulls the hair as it glides and literally gets caught and rips it out. It’s so bloody frustrating and when you’re conscious about your thinning hairline- it’s far from ideal.

The design sucks and GHD needs to go back to what worked so well.

I regret my decision to buy it.

I bought this hair straightener to replace my Dyson Corrale, on the recommendation of my hairdresser who uses ghd products. It's the best… Read more

straightener I've ever had. It's quick, light (the Corrale is just too heavy and clumsy), and the style stays in my thick, fine hair. It gets very hot very quickly, so take care. Overall 10/10

Cannot fly with device – I like the GHD unplugged even though it can snag and has a short battery life. It is convenient. But I am very upset that I could not take it home… Read more

from Japan. Could take it over no problem but cannot fly back with it even if bought in Japan. The airport will bin it no matter what you explain. So there’s no guarantee that airports will allow it even if flying through an allowed airline. When I bought this from Hairhouse there was no indication of restrictions flying. Only when I went to GHD site I could see it’s not allowed to fly all places.

Ghd original is not original anymore – Bought a ghd original hair straightener..I still had the old one.The new one is much lighter and does not heat up as much as the old one.Quality is… Read more
