Not happy with the product.

Verified Purchase
I bought this product with the assumption that it will cause less damage to my hair has my hair is thicker, however the product is taking me longer to set my hair, resulting in breakage of my hair. It was not worth the price considering I could have purchased a product that costs R700.00 and does the same job. My only reason for going for a higher end/priced product was because I assumed it would not damage the hair. It also does not set it very straight by the roots. It is taking me over an 1hr and a half to set my hair.

Amazing hair straighteners!

Verified Purchase
I’ve always had ghd straightens but this is the first time I have bought the wide plates. They are amazing! I have quite thick, layered hair and they straighten my hair quickly and it looks super shiny. So impressed! Very prompt delivery as well!

Not the usual GHD standard

Verified Purchase
I recently purchased the GHD Max Wide plate hair straighteners to replace my existing GHD Wide straighteners that have served me amazingly well for almost 10yrs! However upon receiving and trying out the straighteners, I am so disappointed as they do not straighten or style my hair to the same level as my old GHD’s. I tried the straighteners for a second time to hopefully change my mind and I am so upset and disappointed that they do not live up to the usual GHD standard. I am so gutted considering they are not a cheap purchase. I have quite thick, long and wavy hair however the new straighteners seemed to take twice as long to actually straighten my hair. I’m really apprehensive about this as it would take at least 3 attempts to go over my hair to actually straighten, rather than essentially be “wavy straight”, which is only adding to damage and having to pull through my hair rather than smoothly glide. A really disappointment and such a shame having being an avid GHD fan for so many years 😞
