NEW & IMPROVED GHD GLIDE+ CERAMIC SMOOTHING HOT BRUSH This brush is amazing worth every penny I spent its quick gives you body easy to use Well done GHD and hopefully less damage to my hair ! Thanks
Amazing!!!! – I ve always wanted to be able to curl my hair but I always end up with frazzled ends. Used straighteners but it took ages. OMG this hot brush is a game changer. My hair is glossy, gorgeous curls & no damage!!! I ordered a heat glove as alot of reviews mentioned burning their hands but I haven’t needed them either. Amazing, would highly recommend. My hair is thick & naturally coarse. Show details
Too heavy, awkwardly placed power button and Hairhouse refuse to refund – Purchased online through Hairhouse. Was going to try on my slightly wavy, mid length hair but the weight balance of the machine was off making it top heavy and awkward to hold and the power button was on the handle where you accidentally keep knocking it. Due to these issues as my intentions were to use it for travel, I returned it to Hairhouse… Read more
for a refund. With zero explanation, regardless of two follow up emails asking the process of the return, the item showed up on my doorstep again! I contacted them and was advised due to the item not being faulty, it had been returned to me. Very unhappy with the product and disgusted with the treatment from Hairhouse. Would have been better off getting a $40 item from Big W.
Ghd glide – At first glance what I immediately noticed about the Ghd glide is that it has a super long cord. 2.7 metres to be exact and a combination of shorter and longer spokes which are densly positioned to allow undemanding manipulation of various hair types. Once I plugged it in and pressed the on/off button the sound indicator signals when the brush is… Read more
ready to use. I then section my hair and glide the brush through my hair watching my hair be transformed from a frizzy mess to straightened, smoothed and shiny tresses. To turn the Ghd glide off you simply press the same button that turns the device on and allow it to cool down. If you ever leave the house wondering or worrying about whether or not you've turned your Ghd glide off or not there is no need to worry as it will automatically turn itself off after 60 minutes of not being used. The glide heats up to an optimum temperature of 185˚C. The Ghd glide has an ioniser that emits negative ions, which close the cuticle layer of the hair, locking in moisture and creating shine. The longer spokes on the brush aren't heated and these are the ones the detangle any knots in the hair whilst the short spokes are the ones that straightened the hair. You can touch the spokes without burning your hand or head. If you have thick, frizzy hair like mine then I wouldn't recommend that you use this brush like a normal hair brush but rather section the hair and pull that section out straight then run the Ghd glide through that section like you would a traditional straightener. If you like to wear your hair dead then the Ghd Glide isn't for you. It does straightened the hair but I would suggest it more as a touch up device. So say you blow dry then straighten your hair one day and wake up the next day and it's a bit kinky or wavy or you've had a ponytail in your hair and you want to remove the hair tie/scrunchie kink then the glide will certainly remove that. Or if your looking for a quick tidy up before running out the door to drop the kids off to school then the glide is for you. However if you're looking for that super sleek dead straight style then an actual hair straightener would get you a more sleek result. Overall I would recommend the Ghd glide to anyone with long, thin, slightly wavy hair as it wouldn't take too much effort or time to straightened. I am happy with the results I achieve using my Ghd glide as most of the time I simply tie my hair up so running the glide through a few sections to smooth my hair out before putting my hair up in a ponytail or bun works perfectly for me.
A perfect choice for a fast blow wave effect – This brush is great for adding volume to straight hair. It heats quickly, is fast to use and leaves hair with a natural blow wave effect. It easily tames my unruly hair. Show details
Works great, easy to use, better than my old straighteners – This works amazingly on my fine curly/wavy hair, much better than my old straighteners because it is a brush, so smooths it effortlessly. And forget about GHD's slogans about this being for second day styling - I think they are just trying to ensure they still sell their other products. I use this exclusively now - I wash my hair a few times a… Read more
week at night, brush it and let it dry then style in the morning. Some days I don't even need to use it, just brush it with a normal brush and go (anyone with curly hair will get why I'm so impressed by this!).
Tips for using it: use a heat product to protect your hair, and brush it s l o w l y through your hair... that's it! So easy to use. What I also really like is that it doesn't make your hair completely straight, there is still some bounce to it, particularly at the ends (I like a natural look - if you're after something that will make your hair dead straight, this might not be for you).
The only slightly negative thing is the placing of the power button - I often hit it accidentally and sometimes turn it off by mistake.
Other than that, I can't really fault it. Wouldn't be without it!
Great Alternative To Straightening Iron – I have long, thick, wavy, frizzy hair. It takes me well over an hour to straighten using a standard iron however only takes me 20-30 minutes with the GHD Glide Hot Brush. It doesn't give the same dead straight hair as an iron but it's great! You still need to brush hair in small chunks - its not quite as simple as just brushing your hair. Show details
Waste of money – I really didn’t like this purchase I brought it on adorebeauty, it looked pretty barely done anything to my already fairly straight hair. I am selling it as I honestly wish I didn’t buy it and stuck to my ghd straightener
I have difficulty cleaning it! – In total I am happy with it, if I use it in its clean condition. It is recommended to not clean it with water. It is very difficult to clean between the brush and the outcome is not desirable while not clean. Show details · 1
Game Changer – This GHD Glide is a game changer!!! My hair is in between wavy and trying to be straight..... I have been using a GHD straightener for the longest time and I never thought I would find another styling tool that would replace, it until now. The GHD Glide Hot Brush has done just that. Fast, effective and gives me a better result. My hair only ever… Read more · 1
looks this shiny and smooth after I leave the salon. Now I can get that salon straightening look and feel each and every time. Thanks GHD
Best product GHD made! – I have coarse, very thick long hair. I’ve tried other brands that didn’t work on my hair. What took 20 minutes using a straightener, takes 5 minutes using GHD Glide! Show details · 1
The perfect styling tool for busy people – My hair type is thin and with little volume. I quickly go over my hair in the morning before I have to dash out to work. the tool gives you a straight finish but with more volume. It's easy to use and more importantly quick! I recommend sectioning the hair and holding tension when brushing under the hair, rather than the normal way as you get more volume. Show details · 1
Absolutely Love it!! – Absolutely love this Brush!! So easy to use on my medium length hair. It heats up really quickly and gives such great results. I just use it like you are brushing your hair and it leaves my hair nice and straight. I have another brand and this is much better and gets much hotter. I am so glad I purchased this and won’t be without it. I did bump… Read more · 1
the power button while using it, but luckily it didn’t turn off, so I was cautious about it after that not to keep bumping it, so just be aware it could be a problem. Also it does get hot and so does your hair, so use a protective spray, and just be careful if you touch your hair after you have just been over it with the brush as you could burn your hand from touching your hair it is that hot after! It leaves your hair so soft and shiny though!! Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed.

It’s worth the dollars – This brush has made styling my hair so much easier. I have chin length fine curly hair and let’s face it sometimes your curls just don’t behave and it’s easier to just straighten it I don’t really like poker straight hair, as mine is fine it can look really flat and lifeless with a straightener, I had tried a cheaper VS heated brush and had to… Read more · 1
pass it through my hair 3 times to get it straight, this is where the GHD earns it high price tag, one pass and I have straight shiny hair that has body. It’s my bad hair day saviour, hair tamed in under 5 minutes for me. Watch where you put your fingers as it has the potential to burn, with the VS one I brought it came with a heat resistant glove, the GHD doesn’t, so I use the one from the other brush. As other users have reported you do tend to hit the power button sometimes while styling, you have to press it for 2 seconds to turn it off so it’s not a huge deal. According to a blog I read, as of August 2019 these are now a permanent GHD line, not just a limited edition. I got mine from My Haircare online who have just got them back in stock.
Styling with minimum hair dry out – I have always used a ghd straightener on my hair and been happy with the results and was very excited to see the GHD hot brush .I find it to be very quick at straightening my hair and alot more gentler than my previous bush ,my hair does not feel as course as before and myself i have very dry brittle hair with the coloring and bleaching i have… Read more · 1
