Quick and easy while keeping hair in great health

I've had a very positive experience with my Chronos straightener so far. The one button feature, swivel cable and very light weight of the product make it extremely easy to use. A big priority for me is speed, as someone who has very long and naturally wavy/frizzy hair, and if I'm short for time I can straighten my hair in 15/20 minutes from start to finish with Chronos. This time includes separating my hair into 5 separate sections which I have to do as I have a lot of hair. Once straight, I can get away with not straightening it again for up to 3 days before my next hair wash and it keeps its sleekness providing I don't get it wet or expose it to major humidity. I love this as it means I only have to straighten my hair 2-3 times a week, and can just top up for a few minutes if I want an extra straight finish. Equally, I love using Chronos as a curler too and find that the plate width is perfect to create sleek, soft curls. I just twist the barrel in one pass and it creates a gorgeous blow dried look. It also create a S wave really nicely too. The plate width also allows me to get right to the root to avoid kinking here. I will always use GHD as hair health is a big priority for me and having used GHD products for 15+ years and the health of my hair has never felt compromised - this is something hairdressers always comment on! Also, having frizzy hair, I find that the Chronos straightener really brings out its shine for that glossy, healthy look. This product with the vanity case would make a really special and festive gift for someone.

Complete game changer- hairdresser in a box

This product arrived so beautifully packaged that it genuinely felt like opening a luxury gift. The attention to detail made such a good first impression that I almost didn’t want to break the seal. It looked and felt high-end before I’d even plugged it in. I have thick, straight hair that can be quite stubborn and difficult to style. Usually, if I’m going somewhere special, I book myself in for a bouncy blow dry because it’s one of the few ways to get long-lasting volume and smoothness. So I was genuinely curious and a little sceptical to see whether this tool could give me similar results at home. From the very first use, I was impressed. It’s incredibly easy to handle, heats up quickly, and glides through my hair without snagging or dragging. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who wants that salon-style finish without the fuss. My hair came out so smooth, shiny and bouncy that several people actually asked if I’d been to the hairdresser! What really surprised me was how much time it saved. As a busy mum, I don’t often have the luxury of spending ages doing my hair. This dries and styles in one go, and the results look like I’ve spent far longer than I actually have. It’s honestly been a game changer for my routine quick, effective and genuinely confidence-boosting. Overall, I’m really impressed. It’s luxurious, easy to use, and delivers the kind of finish I never thought I’d achieve at home. Highly recommended.

Best straightener there is!

I bought this after humming it over for months, it straightens my hair beautifully, I got many compliments after the first time using it. It's worth the price, if you're on the fence my advice is to treat yourself, you won't regret it.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago and it is exactly as I imagined and more. I was very disappointed with how it was delivered as it was thrown over my gate and left in the rain all afternoon. It has a guarantee and I’m hoping I don’t have to use it.

Great Straighteners

I’ve used these now for a few weeks at home and also when travelling for work. The handy silicone case was really useful when on the go as I could pop them away before fully cooled. The Cronos plates glided through my hair with ease from root to tip, leaving my hair nice and shinny. It took no time at all to finish my look quickly as my hair was straight and frizz free with just one pass on each section. I found the result long lasting too. Great product and I would highly recommend.
