Upgrade

I upgraded from a really old ghd that was probably 10 years old plus. So glad I’ve treated myself to a newer ghd and I managed to trade in my old one to get money off. Really good straightener just one swipe and it straightens instantly leaving hair smooth and shiny. Definitely recommend this one for anyone with thicker hair

GHD Chronos Max

I bought these after my original GHDs stopped working (9 years after purchasing). I did review other brands too but seeing as I'm 38 and I've only ever owned 2x pairs of GHDs, I decided to buy a third as longevity is a big deal for me. I have curly, thick hair and have only ever used the standard plates but decided to buy the wide plate this time. I'm amazed at how much time they save me. My hair has had so many compliments since buying them too, genuinely! Everyone has noticed it has more shine and looks sleeker, which is hard for a curly girl!

Not great

Verified Purchase
These are not as good as the straightener part of the two in one styler at keeping my hair frizz free. Disappointed tbh as was expecting a lot better than what they are.

Perfect gift

Verified Purchase
I bought this for my sister as her Christmas present because she always uses mine since I upgraded my Chronos. She has thicker and longer har than mine and she loves it. Her hair is frizz free and stays straight for 4 days by which it’s shampoo time.the cable is flexible also and does not get tangled or twisted like other brands’. She loves it.
