Fast and Stylish!

Verified Purchase
This was a gift from my family before attending a wedding and it was perfect for creating a beautiful hair style and updo as the maid of honor. The straightener heats up in just about 10-20 seconds and is simple to curl with as well. The price is an investment, but worth it.

Leaves my hair shiny & silky

I've always used the slim line version of GHD so this does take some getting used to. I would highlight making a better grip especially since these are quite wide plates. I have to take little breaks in-between ha-ha! I am quite impressed how long my hair stays straight for without any frizz - its a game-changer for me! And my hair feels so soft and silky - I love it!!
