Quick and easy to use, instant glam!

I absolutely love this! It’s so quick and easy to use, especially for taming my frizzy hair and flyaways. It leaves my hair looking smooth and much more manageable without taking ages to style. Perfect for those second-day hair days too!

Great alternative to straighteners

Verified Purchase
I bought this after reading the reviews that this was a great alternative to using straighteners and I agree. It works well on my hair and takes the frizz out of it. It is a bit more gentle on the hair than using straighteners and works well styling my "bed hair" on days that I haven;t just washed, dried and styled it.

A smooth sleek finish, this is a game changer

I have very thick curly hair and didn’t think this hot brush would cut it. It’s an absolute wow from me. No straighteners needed. It took a bit of time and I had to section the hair, it left layers sleek and frizz free. The brush feels a little heavier than other GHD hot brushes, but the handle is a good length and no hot parts to burn fingers like the round hot brush. The bristles do not snag and the heat is just right for a smooth finish. It took a while to navigate getting close to the roots of my hair but after a couple of goes I mastered it! The set is complete with a handy case that is great for storage. Once I have used the brush to straighten my hair, in the mornings it’s a quick touch up and I’m good to go. This brush is a game changer.

Good hot brush but not the sleek look I need

Verified Purchase
I was very excited to try this hot brush, reviews looked good and I'm always looking for a simpler solution to straighten my long, thick and curly Indian hair. Time to heat up and use was minimal, weight of brush feels a little heavier than a paddle brush. I have difficult hair that takes on average an hour to dry and straighten, but once it is done, I typically don't need to style it again using heat. Whilst the hot brush was good on the lengths, it was tricky to get the roots as flat/smooth as I usually can achieve with a straightener. The hair was straightened in a very short amount of time with the ghd glide but it was more fluffy straight rather than the sleek and shiny straight look I prefer. The next day I needed to restyle my hair with the ghd glide as the straightened effect didn't last as long, whereas normally I don't need to do this until my next wash. Whilst I understand this tool is not for poker straight hair, the results did not last as hoped for my type of hair. Overall, in terms of time and ease of use, it was very good. Its straightening power is good but maybe results are better if hair is not as thick or curly as mine. I would recommend in general if you have more manageable hair but this wasn't the tool for me! I do still love my OG GHDs though!
