GHD PLATINUM+ HAIR STRAIGHTENER IN WHITE

When I shake my brand new flat iron it makes a rattling noise (it’s doesn’t come from the button). Customer service is very rude and arrogant. I regret buying this.

Treated myself to this set even though my old GHD straighteners still worked well, or so I thought. However, it’s very apparent technology has really moved on and these straighteners are far and away better than my old ones and the gift set is excellent value.

I have very long, highlighted, thick, combination hair. My top layer being relatively straight, and bottom layers being wavy and curly with sections that are kinky. Now that that’s out of the way… I used the Original 1” Styler 3 different ways, because some days I’m lazy, and some days I actually have the time to put “pro-effort” into my hairstyle, either by straightening or curling it. For my thick hair the Classic Styler straightens better than it curls. If I want the curls to last all day and not fall out I have to start curling my hair from its natural state. With that being said, in order for me to get smooth curls that don’t have any creases or kink in the individual hair strands, I have to pass over my hair at least once before I go in for the actual curling motion… which means when I actually go over it that second time the curl it isn’t as curly, and even has some areas that want to fall immediately. This is not due to the temperature of the straightener though, because it does get perfectly hot. I’m leaning more towards it being the single zone technology paired with my hair being very thick. If you have thin to average hair you’ll have an amazing result curling. When it came to taking the time to pro-straighten my hair by taking 1 inch sections, I really like how the plates glide over the sections of hair easily. It’s also not heavy, and I don’t have to squeeze hard to get good pressure on the hair; which means my hands and arms didn’t get tired. After my hair cooled it was 100% straight, with a lovely, soft and frizz free feel. This lasted all day long too. Last thing I did was “lazy” straightened it by not sectioning or isolating any of it at all… So starting with air dried hair in its natural form, I ran the straightener through my hair randomly. This is where the Classic Styler really shines! It DOES NOT pull on hair or snag at all. Not even a little! I was super impressed by this. The results of this lazy method were fantastic for putting minimal effort in! I cannot stress this enough. I really think that the Classic 1” Styler is a great 1st time straightener if you aren’t ready for a slightly larger investment with one of their higher end straighteners with more features, and you’ll love the way this straightener performs! Even though I mentioned above that I didn’t get a great result curling due to my hair type, I’m still giving it a 5 star rating - My reasoning for this is, for its intended function as their “Classic” option it does the job very well!

Bought this for my wife as her last ones broke. Put ut this way,she thinks I'm the best thing since sliced bread.She absolutely loves it.Great product and one that's put a smile on on wife's face..Bravo

I ordered the ghd platinum from the official website. I didn't receive a confirmation email so contacted them and received one a day or so later. Delivery was a day later than stated. Otherwise no issues and a fab product really pleased with it, creates lovely curls on my straight hair.
