Chronos Max

Bought almost a month ago and still testing it in different ways. Maybe my expectations were too high and the advertising surely helped create a next level expectation, but I don't feel like it out performs my previous straightener (not a GHD), especially when I compare the two for styling my hair with beach waves. I find that I have to restyle daily with the GHD because the curls fall out quickly, which isn't necessary with my older straightener. For frizz control and simply straightening my hair it works great but I was definitely expecting more from it.

New Customer of the GHD world, very impressed!

I brought the new GHD chronos max around a month ago and I’ve got to say they are AMAZING. The first use I was blown away after having my £30 pair of hair straighteners for the past 8 years these were definitely worth the investment, all I can say is I wish I had brought them before! 10/10!

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.

Great and efficient

I ordered the max style even my hair is not super long but it works perfectly for my mid hair length giving them Excelent result that lasts and not make my hair feel heavy and weighed down, which happened with another famous styler and made me switch to ghd. I do not regret for my choice because it is excellent.
