GHD PLATINUM+ PROFESSIONAL HAIR STRAIGHTENER (26MM PLATE) WHITE

Always wanted some of these and I'm so glad I took the plunge! They're lightweight, compact and the wishbone design is so much better than I imagined. My hair feels silky smooth and perfectly straight!

I eventually treated myself to some new GHD Straighteners. It made me realise that I should have paid out and bought them earlier, instead of buying another brand. The gift bag was lovely, but the hair brush is far too big. It is huge and probably only good for someone with really long hair. 5 stars for straighteners 3 stars for set because of over sized hairbrush.

I bought to replace old ones that stopped working.great price

I bought this a couple of weeks ago, it is compact, light weight easy to use I love the bag, the brush is a bit heave though, but it feels nice when brushing the hair.

I recently tried ghd Duet Blowdry Festive Gift Set Cherry Chic and overall I’m quite happy, it’s become a really useful tool for my daily routine. ✅ What I like * As someone with medium-length, wavy, coloured hair, I appreciate that this tool dries and smooths at once. Often my hair ends up frizzy or undefined after air-drying, but with this brush I get a polished, neat look in far less time. * The finish is shiny, smoother, and has less frizz than when I try to straighten or dry with my older tools. My waves look more controlled, the colour shows better in the light, and the overall result feels more “professional.” * It’s convenient and time-saving, ideal for busy mornings before work. Instead of juggling a hair-dryer + brush + straightener, this 2-in-1 tool simplifies the process: one pass and I’m mostly done. * Because of the low-heat/air-flow design, I feel a bit more confident that I’m not over-damaging my hair, which for coloured hair is particularly important. ⚠️ What surprised me / minor annoyances * It took me a few tries to get the hang of it. For best results I need to start with towel-dried hair (not soaking wet), and work in sections, otherwise the smoothing and shine aren’t as good. I can see why some people say there’s a small learning curve. * On days when my hair was recently coloured or I skipped a hair mask, the brush felt a bit heavier than I expected, especially if I’m doing a full dry + style session. Not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of. * While the result is often smooth and polished, the “blowout” look isn’t as sleek or bone-straight as I sometimes get with a flat iron + dryer. If I’m going for very straight, poker-straight hair, I still find myself reaching for a straightener. 🎯 For whom I think it works best (like me) If you, like me, have medium-length wavy or slightly textured hair (especially if it’s coloured), and you appreciate a natural, polished look rather than super-straight hair, this brush is a fantastic choice. It’s especially useful if you want something quick, low-fuss, and lower-impact on hair health, ideal for everyday professional life when you don’t have time for a full styling routine. 💡 My verdict For my lifestyle, hair type, and styling needs, the ghd Duet Blowdry is a keeper, it streamlines my routine and delivers consistently good results. I wouldn’t expect it to replace a straightener for ultra-sleek styles, but as a daily or regular styling tool, it’s excellent.
