GlamPalm Clinic (GP225)

Good product, while it lasts. Terrible customer service – My straightener lasted under 2 years before it began to beep uncontrollably and cool down. The day it broke it also began to spark under the plate. When I reached out to customer service they provided confusing and conflicting information over a series of emails. They were also super passive aggressive in tone. It’s a shame the products life span is so short because it’s a really good straightener while it works. Show details

THIS IS THE BEST IRON I HAVE EVER USED!! – OMG! So i always had a ghd and then i tried a Cloud9 but they always broke and their customer service is so bad. my friend who is a hairdresser recommended me the glampalm and WOW! it has changed my life! super quick styling, it has a vibration mode on all settings and it even has a clinic mode for treatments apparently but i still have to try… Read more

that one. PLEASE PLEASE do yourself a favor and give this band a go and you will fall in love like I am!!

Doesn't Last Long – I would not recommend this straightener, it broke after 2 years whilst my old GHD lasted for 10. I sent it back to GlamPalm to be repaired & a few months later it broke again, right after the warranty ended. Very unhappy. Show details

BETTER THAN CLOUD 9! – Wow this striaghtener is just wow. the plates vibrate 800 times per minute and my hair feels so smooth and healthy. it never felt like this before! thank you glampalm! i did some investigation and these irons are the original ghd but also the original cloud 9 and by the looks of it cloud 9 is now copying glampalm at a more expensive price. the… Read more

glampalm has 11 temperatures and can vibrate at all temperatures where apparently the cloud 9 only can vibrate on 150 degrees. also the glampalm has a clinic function to repair hair where the cloud 9 has not. i bought the white glampalm and am in love <3 <3 <3 up to buying a glampalm blowdryer yay!

Love my Glampalm tools – Glampalm straighteners are the best. No damage to the hair. I have all sizes of straighteners. I recommend these straighteners to everyone. Every size is available to buy. The smooth results are flawless.  Show details

Love my straightener! – Love my straightener! My hair stays straight longer and even in rainy weather I didn't get any frizz. Arrived next day after ordering. Gorgeous pearly white colour. Goodbye ghd! 5 Stars! Show details

Better than my cloud 9 or my old ghd!! – I recently bought this iron and I am in love!!! Its the best thing ever. I was a bit wary about some reviews but god im so glad i got my glampalm! I have a cloud9 and previous to that a ghd and the glampalm craps on them. you won't regret it! Show details

Regret buying – I wish I bought a different hair straightener but the marketing fooled me . I bought this to replace my old GHD. I searched online and thought this would be a great solution as it claims no /less damage It was over 300 but it feels like a 30 dollar straightener you can get from big w. It doesn't straighten well, even on 200 c you have to keep… Read more

going over the same section ,and has a weird scent when the plates heat up ( I can't explain but if you've used the cheapy ones, you'd know ) and the results don't last. I didn't see any reduced damage either but my hair is less dry compared to GHD but at least that gave me great results . maybe this straightener is good for someone who doesn't have a hint of frizz in their hair. I wish I bought a steam pod or a new GHD which work way better.

Would not recommend – After my Silver Bullet titanium died I decided to splurge and purchased the 32mm Clinic Pro. I had such high hopes based on reviews and claims made by the brand, which justified the $380 price tag. But disappointed would be an understatement. The iron feels very light and cheap in the hand (in comparison to other brands). The vibrating function… Read more

that I thought would be innovative and inconspicuous, in reality is incredibly loud and irritating, especially given that it's right in your ear. Worst of all, even on the higher heat settings, with product, this held no styling longevity. Within an hour after use, my hair was frizzy and the styling had completely dropped out (which is completely abnormal for my hair, I can usually go days on the same curls or straightening). The most positive thing I have to say about this product is that I liked the grips on the handle of the iron.

If after reading this you are still set on purchasing a Glam Palm, I highly recommend purchasing it from a verified stockist that accepts returns. This way you are at least able to exchange it for a refund.

Very disappointed – I read so many great reviews and I ordered the luxury pack AirTouch dryer and Clinic straightener from glampalm.com.au 3months ago. I have been straightening my hair every week for the last 20years. This styler is NOT worth it at all. It takes longer to do my hair because it doesn't glide, it makes absolutely annoying sound all the time, the… Read more

vibration function basically does nothing appart from another annoying sound near my ear, I could not say that their technology enables styling at lower temp - there is no difference, my hair is not shiny at all at end, the straightener came with a scratch and the cluch was deformed. The hair dryer is huge, heavy, very noisy and absolutely inconvenient for home usage. On the top of all of this they don't have proper return/exchange politics. So I paid for something that I haven't even seen in real and never used before and I have no options to return or exchange it?! Not fair! I wouldnt buy again from this brand.

Perfect – I had GHD before but was not as happy as I am. I have this for 2years and still working like brand new. If I want to upgrade later I will go to the same brand again Show details

You. Need. This. Straightener – I did a LOT of research on straighteners for about 4 months before I purchased. My options were (based on other's personal opinion); Cloud Nine and Glam Palm. I had never heard about this brand before so I was a bit unsure. I posted the question on a Facebook page I follow and surprisingly only a few people mentioned this brand. I looked into it… Read more

because it was (to me) an unheard of brand and I had a lot of mixed reviews on the GHD's from 2015 on. Similarly with Cloud Nine because they are the makers of GHD. My old GHD lasted 8 years but I wanted to see what new technology there was on the market; surely there had to be in 8 years and boy, was there!

The 10 temperature settings exceed any other straightener on the market, with most offering only 7. With 10 heat settings, you have the ability to protect your hair. I have long, very thick, naturally (brown) wavy (borderline curly) hair that has blonde foils. The GP straightens my hair with ONLY ONE STROKE! It takes me roughly 7mins to straighten all of my hair. It takes me longer to curl as I'm not good at it but the GP makes it easy!

It heats up in seconds; you adjust the temp depending on your hair and what you're doing with it. The GlamPalm website has a helpful (damage-free) graph which shows you what setting to use based on how thick your hair is.

In addition to the 10 heat settings, it also has a Clinic Mode; other brands only have 7 with no clinic mode. This was a factor for me and part of the reason I bought it. With this mode, you can have a treatment or leave-in conditioner in and STILL straighten your hair! I didn't believe this until I opened the box and there was a little rubber cover that goes over the plates of your GP and allows you to use it so the plates don't get covered / damaged in product. I couldn't find any other straightener on the market that allows you to do this. GHD and Cloud Nine don't have this ability.

The Nano-Vibrating technology was also another reason I bought it. This means that the heat is radiated evenly INSIDE the hair due to the vibration. So it doesn't dry out your hair and you don't need to pile on the protective heat sprays / creams afterwards which just undo all the work you've just done with your straightener. There are many scholarly (academic) articles on nano-vibrating technology so that sealed the deal for me.

Op top of that (as if you're not sold already!), this also has MICOM. It is basically a computer that controls the heat. So it will automatically adjust the heat according to its heat sensors so you don't need an extra accessory / product / cream that will protect your hair; its built in!

After all my research, I couldn't find another brand which had ALL of these things. Some brands had the MICOM but didn't have the clinic mode. I wanted all of it. You do if you're gonna pay the price tag.

It also comes with heaps! You get this awesome (full-sized) heat proof clutch purse that doubles as its own bag (you could actually use it for a night out), 2 black sectioning clips which have their own place in the Clutch bag; so they wont get broken or LOST, the little silicone cover for when you have a treatment in your hair, a clear plastic heat proof cover that you store the GP tong end in; this means you can store it closed and NOT have to wrap your cord around the end of the tongs (like I used to do). The cord also has its own rubber strap so when you store it, use that to hold the cord together. My old GHD didn't have that. I honestly do not have anything negative to say about this. I live in central VIC and it got to me in 3 days.

So when I opened the box, I was VERY impressed. The price you pay, it comes with everything. I got this on a Black Friday deal so it was perfect. Honestly, it leaves my hair shiny after I use it. I didn't think that was actually possible but it is. I got the Diamond White and it is so sparkly! Couldn't be happier!

Amazing! I cannot live without it – This glampalm heats up in within seconds and it also has a vibrating function to create even distribution of heat through your hair to avoid damage so it leaves your hair feeling so soft and adds shine. Since owning this straightener my hair appears healthier and has also started growing quicker. I will never go back to cloud nine or GHD again. Show details

Throw away your every other straightener!!! – This is by far the best straightener I have ever used. Ive used all the big names and they all worked well for straightening but all caused damage. From the first go the glam palm clinic halved my styling time, left me beautifully soft straight hair and my style lasted until the next wash. Which it has never done. To top it off I straightened on… Read more

only 160 with the vibration mode on. Ill never use anything else now. These straighteners are on another level. But them, they're worth every cent!

Absolutely LOVE it!! – I absolutely LOVE this hair straightener. I originally bought it to do curls because my hairdresser was doing this in my hair and I loved it. Ordered my own and it arrived in a beautiful box with a stunning little bag to store it. I plugged it in, hit the heat on button and upped the temp and literally within a second of clicking the heat… Read more

button it was BURNING hot. No standing there waiting for it to heat up, it literally is burning hot straight away. It’s especially awesome if you turn it off and unplug and then realise there was one tiny bit of your hair that you need to fix, you can do it really quickly because of how fast it heats.

I got the white one which has a pearl glitter shimmer to it and it’s stunning. It also has a vibration mode which my hairdresser recommended turning on because it helps heating the hair evenly and not damaging it.

I highly recommend this product if you were thinking of purchasing and not sure because of the price, do it, you won’t regret it.

Glampalm - want some glam in your life - Well I hate to say I have found a better Hair Straightener! – As you know - I have given a very good review on another brand of straightener that I have owned for many many years. However, as I am now older and my hair is becoming finer I decided to shop around for a straightener that I could adjust the temperature on and one that would not only make my hair look lovely but would protect my hair in the… Read more

process.

This straightener has "healing stone technology" together with "nano-vibrating" technology to boot.

You can even put a heat treatment on and use this straightener on low temperature clinic mode to help that treatment penetrate the hair shafts.

Do yourself and your hair the best favour ever and spend the extra dollars and buy this amazing straightener - you will love it - I guarantee it!

I bought the diamond white because - as you know - diamonds are a girl's best friend!

Until next time

Loved this straightener but I wish it lasted longer than 3 years! – I LOVED this hair straightener!!! however I was using it this morning and it started making a strange sound and had a burned out motor smell. I'm completely devastated but it was 3 years old so I'm not sure if that is the life span they have. I am looking at possibly buying the muk this time as my friend has had hers for 10 years now & I don't want to have to replace another glampalm in another 3 years. But I will miss this one for sure!!! Show details

Great so far – I've bought this and was a little skeptical about its claims but I've been using so far and it's been great. The straightner is light and heats up fairly quickly. My hair is fairly damaged but this seems to not make it worse when using. The only reason I haven't given it 5 stars it's because it's only a week old and not sure how long this machine will last.

Super Happy – My order arrived within 48 hours. Only used once so far. I have fine wavey/frizzy hair with a lot of breakage. I used the 120 degree setting and it worked really well. Will definitely be able to us it more regularly as I didn't have any snagging and I feel it is more gentle on my hair. Love the brush I bough also. Would recommend to others to try as it has the lower heat settings available.

As a hairdresser i can say best straightener ever!!! – Im a hairdresser and have tried the ghd, cloud9, halo, silver bullet and other brands. I can say when i got the glampalm clinic i was positively suprised. This styler gives never seen before shine and my hair and customers hair stays straight for 2 or 3 days!!! Can u imagine?! Its crazy. I fell in love! OMG!! The vibrating function is doing wonders and its not annoying at all. Love love love!!!!

Just ok – I purchased the clinic glam palm about 8 months ago from hair mart after my trusty old ghd died. The clinic model doesn't glide through my hair like other straighteners. When curling it gets stuck and I have to open the tongs slightly to let it glide through. I find I've had more split ends since using which might have something to do with the hair not smoothly gliding through. Still does the job but just annoying to use!

Don't bother – For over $250 for this glampalm clinic straightener I expected more. It snags on hair. Heats up too much to burn hair or the temp is too low and the hair doesn't go straight. I was looking for that silky smooth straight for days result with this straighter. For me I did not get that with this straightener. Instead I was left with fluffy… Read more

frizzy half straight hair that was burnt at the ends and I was using small 1inch sections and a heat protective spray each time.

Had a lots of hopes for this product after doing my research, asking friends and chatting with hairdressers.

To me it's a dud and very expensive.

I have now purchased a could 9 wide iron.

Third time lucky hopefully.

After a dud GHD that cost over $300

A dud glampalm that cost over $250

And now a cloud 9 that has cost me over $280.

Why don't the straighners work and they are still sold for such a hefty price.

I even bought a $30 Remington as a back up that I have heard rave reviews about.

Sorry but sick of being disappointed with such an expensive item.

For me this was a dud product.

I even spent the extra on the 'clinic' variation with vibrating technology for at home or in salon keratin treatments apparently. This feature was useless to me.

I wish i could say something more positive about this straightener but I can't.

Better than any straightener I've used – I was a little confused by the turning it on part.. (not an instructions person rather prod and go from there) I thought it might of been a touch pad so i was poking the "on" part like a mad woman. Turns out you hold in one of the Degrees buttons. I've only used it once. It straightened my hair amazingly and i was only using it on 110C and it… Read more

stayed straight!

I've been a user of "Muk Style stick" (horrible), GHD (okay but with no heat settings), Ozhead straightener, VS sassoon, many,many remingtons.

I have very fine/very dry damaged hair.

Now i do have healthy parts of hair and the glampalm made them feel so soft and smooth.

My dry/damaged ends were made to feel slightly drier (did use heat protectant anyway even though it says you dont have too) BUT! not as dry as my "ozhead" made my ends feel when i'd use it and it wouldnt even stay straight.

I haven't used the clinic function as of yet. i'll update later!

Overall, the straightener feels well made/sturdy.

heated up fast, no snagging when i was using it.

-Edit- I've used the "clinic" function twice now with the plastic sticky wrap provided. Doesn't feel like it does much when your using it with the treatment in, left for 10mins, rinsed out (cold water, seals the hair ) once dry the hair feels so soft and healthy!

worth jt – Amazing tool! It's expensive, but totally worth the price (assuming it lasts as long as I assume it will). Feels really solid, but not heavy, and heats up really quickly. Buy it

Not as good as I expected – I had such high hopes for this good looking set of irons! From day dot they have been a little pully when curling but as the weeks went on it's become worse. Tried so many different things to make it stop as I use these irons on my clients and it's not ideal to have me pulling whilst styling. I message glamplam and explained but they just said… Read more

stop using too much product while curling... which I don't do at all. Have found many others people have found the same problem. Such a bummer for such an expensive set.

Kick ass over the current GHDs – To say I am terrible at doing my own hair is an understatement, so I usually cut it short. Feeling like a change I got extensions and was concerned how to make them look nice. My hairdresser raved about the glam palm so I ordered one. It arrived the very next day. I straightened my hair so perfectly and easily and decided to try doing curls, to my… Read more

surprise I had gorgeous curly hair in 30 mins. I can not speak highly enough of the magic straightener. And to top it off the carry case is stunning too. Can definitely tell this was made by the original manufacturers of the GHD. Keep up the amazing work. Worth every dollar
