COMMON STYLING QUESTIONS ANSWERED BY OUR EXPERT GRANT WILLIAMS

Q: How do you get a sleek, straight finish with ghd sculpt?

Work on dry hair in small sections and glide the styler slowly from root to tip in one controlled pass. The slim plates smooth each section evenly for a flat, glossy finish.

Q: How do you stop straight hair going frizzy?

Finish with a light smoothing oil through the ends, not the roots, and avoid touching the hair once styled. A slow, clean pass with the styler helps seal the cuticle so it stays smooth.

Q: How many passes do you need for sleek hair?

One slow pass is usually enough with ghd sculpt. Repeating over the same section adds heat without improving the finish, so keep sections small and move steadily.

Q: Can you get a sleek look on wavy or curly hair?

Yes. Prep with a heat protectant and work in smaller sections. Curlier textures need an even, steady glide so the hair sits smooth and straight.

Q: How do you keep a sleek style in place all day?

Smooth, dry prep does most of the work. Finish with a light mist of flexible-hold spray to maintain the look without weighing the hair down.
