The symptoms described above are usually associated with a feature of the ghd IV stylers called "Shiver Mode". The purpose of this feature is to stop any kind of electrical failure due to a build up of condensation which can occur if a styler is left in a cold climate. Specifically, if the internal temperature of the styler is below 8 degrees, it will not switch on and heat up normally. Typically, this feature is mistaken as a fault with styler. If you experience this you should complete the following steps:
• Make sure the styler is switched off and unplugged.
• Leave the styler to warm back up to room temperature gradually - this make take anywhere from 20 - 90 minutes depending on start temperature.
To prevent your styler going into Shiver Mode you should:
• Keep your styler in a warm room.
• Not leave your styler on cold surfaces. i.e. hardwood/tiled flooring, windowsills or in the boot of your car.
• Always aim to keep your styler well insulated, especially during the Winter months. A ghd carry bag should be sufficient.
* Note
NEVER apply direct heat to a styler i.e. holding it over a fire or cooker
NEVER place a styler directly onto a heated surface i.e. radiator or cooker
Of course every ghd product is created to the highest standards and rigorously checked before it is unleashed. But if, for any reason, you need to return your styler or any other ghd product, we'll ensure the whole process is as simple and speedy as possible.

PRODUCT CARE
When your styler has cooled, fold the cord in the same way it was in the original packaging. Try to avoid winding it around your hand or the body of the styler, or hanging your styler by its cord. Please see our product care section for more information.
Ensure your styler is switched off and cold. Wipe your styler with a damp, clean cloth to remove any excess products.
Our ghd IV stylers, V Gold Series stylers, ghd Eclipse stylers, Platinum stylers, ghd Curve stylers have universal voltage so that you can use your styler in any country with an adaptor.
The ghd air® hairdryer range, model 3 and 3.1b stylers only work in countries where 220-240V power supply is available. We recommend you check the voltage available in your destination before you travel.

STYLERS
As technology advances so does design and as a result we offer a range of stylers to meet your styling needs. Choose from a selection of ghd stylers to provide the ultimate professional salon finish.
- ghd IV styler range: The original multi-award winning ghd styler, perfect for creating curls, waves or the perfect straight.
- ghd V gold series: Available in three different sizes; ghd V gold classic styler, ghd V gold max styler and ghd V gold mini styler, the ghd V gold series range is our sleekest ever styler with luxurious golden plates that smooth effortlessly through the hair for an ultra-shiny, high-gloss finish.
- ghd platinum™: Our revolutionary new ghd platinum™ styler contains breakthrough tri-zone™ technology that maintains the optimum styling temperature, so you can style faster with less heat, for unbeatable shine and stronger hair that looks glossy and healthy for longer.
As with ghd IV stylers, the plates are made of aluminium which is used because it has powerful heat conducting properties – four times better than steel. The aluminium is coated with a thin layer of an advanced ceramic coating, which helps the plates glide smoothly through the hair and leaves hair looking shiny. The combination of the excellent heat properties of aluminium and the smoothing properties of the thin ceramic coating gives you the great styling results you expect from ghd.
We’ve made the ghd V Gold Series stylers more weight efficient. By improving and modernising the design we’ve been able to reduce the amount of material used in its construction compared to a ghd IV stylers. Stylists have told us that they can really feel the difference and that the new ghd V Gold Series stylers are easier to handle and to style with, especially when curling.
The ghd V Gold Series stylers continue to use ghd’s advanced ceramic heater technology, however we’ve redesigned some of the heater control systems to make sure that they’re performing at their best. Stylists have told us they’ve been really impressed with the results they’ve achieved with the ghd V Gold Series stylers.
The ghd V Gold Series stylers are designed to operate at 175°C - 185°C. At ghd, we have found that this is the optimal operating temperature for our advanced ceramic heater technology to create superior results whatever the hair type or style that you are looking to achieve. Stylists have told us they’ve been really impressed with the results they’ve achieved with the ghd V Gold Series stylers.
Safety continues to be a priority at ghd. For your safety and peace of mind there is a sleep mode feature on both the ghd IV stylers and ghd V Gold Series stylers. After 30 minutes without being used, the heated plates will switch off. When in sleep mode the light will flash and a warning beep will sound every 20 seconds. Simply switch the styler off then on again to resume styling.
The ghd V Gold Series stylers heat up fast, in less than 30 seconds (40 seconds for USA voltage) so that you don’t have to wait to start styling. When it reaches temperature you will hear 3 consecutive bleeps and the logo on the switch will remain constantly lit to indicate it is ready for styling.
The ghd V Gold Series stylers have a 2.7m length power cord for optimal use and ease of connectivity in salons and at home.

STYLING TIPS
The ghd V Gold Classic styler is designed to enable creative styling – flicks, waves, curls or the perfect straight. The ghd V Gold Classic styler has a round barrel for easy curling, and introducing a smooth movement swivel connector that makes the styler easy to manipulate during creative styling sessions. Stylists have told us that the lighter weight of the ghd V Gold Classic styler has made curling easier than ever.
The ghd V Gold Mini styler is ideal for shorter, textured styles or men's hair.
ghd IV styler, ghd V Gold Classic styler and ghd eclipse® styler - are all suitable for mid length to long hair. Perfect for achieving straight, curls, flicks and waves.
The ghd V Gold Max styler or ghd IV salon styler with wider plates are ideal for use on long, thick hair and ideal for styling large sections.
For more challenging hair we recommend our revolutionary ghd eclipse® styler with breakthrough tri-zone™ technology that maintains the optimum styling temperature, so you can style faster with less heat, for unbeatable shine and stronger hair that looks glossy and healthy for longer.
Because ghd stylers are designed with advanced temperature control, many manufacturers have found that they are a very effective tool to use with Keratin treatments. However, all Keratin treatments vary, and therefore we would recommend you consult your Keratin treatment supplier to understand what’s needed.
