Wowed with the shine

when I received my GHD Chronos Max the box was like a box of delights with a wide paddle brush and a beautiful material case, I have to say it’s the best GHD have put in there gift sets. The wide Straightener is designed for thick, curly and frizzy hair. I definitely have frizzy and curly hair. I was excited to give it a go so I washed my hair soon after I received it. I blasted my hair with the hairdryer and sectioned my hair. With the wide plates I got to straighten more hair than my old platinum GHDs. The Chronos glided over my hair and straightened beautifully the 1st time, I just like to glide over it a few times to give it a sleek shine finish. I have to say the wide plates cut my straightening time. I was also surprised with the plates of the wide straightener that I could style my front bits of my hair to have a curve which was smooth and shiny. My hair length is bra length long and the straightener cut my styling time by 1/3 and my hair was so smooth and shiny I was actually really surprised my hair stayed like that over 24 hours which I loved. The results are impressive and shiny. I was actually so pleased with the look. Overall the GHD is not so heavy to use and easy to work with and the results are very impressive and the best thing without ruining my hair. I definitely recommend these wide plates to my 20year old daughter as she has long curly hair. Age 49 Worcestershire

Chronos Max Straightener gives salon looking hair

The Chronos Max Straightener is another level of straightener giving you salon straight hair with one sweep. Hair feels glossy and lasts throughout the day even in humid conditions. Two other positive points with this straightener is it heats up quickly with a light and a loud bleep to say it is ready to use and secondly it has a long lead which helps if your plug socket is away from where you style your hair. Although the plate is wide this does not cause too much trouble with my mid length hair it just means it is quicker to straighten. The Chronos Straightener came with a heat protection case which means it is easy to store even when hot and a paddle hair brush. Would recommend if you have mid to long length hair for a salon finish.

The Crown Jewel of Styling!

As someone with long, thick hair that has recently developed a natural wave through the menopause, finding a straightener that can actually tame my hair without causing damage has been a journey. The GHD Hronos Max Best Wide Plate hair Straightener Gift Set has been an absolute game changer - I truly feel like a new woman! First Impressions & Unboxing From the moment it arrived, the presentation feels purely luxurious. The gift set comes housed in a lush gold and black box, making it feel like a treat before you’ve even opened it. Inside, you get the sleek black wide plate straightener with a heat resistant plate guard, a high quality black paddle brush and a matching black fabric heat resistant bag. The generous long cable is another thoughtful touch, giving you complete flexibility and freedom while styling without getting tangled up. Performance & Results If you are looking for the best hair straightener for thick, frizzy hair, then this straightener delivers powerful control and smoothness with every pass. The wide black ceramic plates glide through effortlessly, transforming my long, thick hair in just one stroke. The HD motion responsive technology is a game changer for my long, thick hair! It constantly adapts to keep the temperature optimal, therefore preventing heat damage and leaving my hair incredibly soft, glossy and healthy right to the tips! For someone who washes her hair everyday this is a game changer! Versatility Thanks to the clever curved design, it is so much more than just a straightener. Whether I want a sleek, elegant straight look or choose to curl the ends using the barrel to create soft, bouncy curls, it handles both with ease and with zero frizz in sight. While the styling results are fantastic, the outer barrel does heat up, a cooler outer casing would make it easier to hold for extra control while styling . Final Verdict This product has brought back my confidence and simplified my styling routine completely. It delivers salon quality, healthy looking results every single time I've used it and I cannot recommend it highly enough to women of all ages!
