  2. Had gold a while now

    Customer1235

    I e has ghd for years great straightener but lasts about 2-3 years only.
  3. My second GHD

    CM

    Although they are an investment. they are an investment I see worthwhile. My first GHD lasted 10 years, and this new one is great.
  4. Ghd is the best

    Tay

    Ghd straighteners are the best in the business. They are so great at smoothing the hair, and lasts all day or night.
  5. Worth every penny

    Lisajane

    I had my old GHD for a good 13 years, it still works even after a few drops and is slightly cracked. I felt like it was time to treat myself and upgrade. This one is a little fatter than my old one so it took a little time to get used to it but I’m in love, like I knew I would be. I’m thankful I can curl and straighten so I only need one tool
  6. Good hair everyday

    Serena

    I love my GHD Gold. Makes my hair look like I've just come out of the hair salon all the time. It heats up quickly. Is easy to use. Has a long cord. Love it.
  7. Really love it

    Ellie

    Really like how fast this heats up and how smooth it makes my hair. Can use it for curling quite easily too because of the shape of the barrel
  8. Ghd make the best straighteners

    Bree

    Great straightener although I do not see much difference between this and the original. Both are equally as good and do the job well.
  9. Love it !!

    Sharee

    Purchased this ghd and have never looked back. It heats up so quickly!! Super easy to use. It's lightweight and my hair feels silky after every use. HIghly recommend this product.

    Siobhan

    I had the basic GHD for 13 years! But it was time to replace it so I bought the gold. I have very thick hair and this works really well. Very happy with this purchase.
  11. My favourite hair styling product

    Nicky

    I highly recommend this hair styling product, heat up extremely quick, nice and elegant design, worth the money, good investment.
  12. love this

    Brittany

    can't go wrong with a ghd
    and at a great price
    leave your hair smooth and soft
  13. GHD gold is 24k WORTHIT

    Bri

    Ive used lots of different high temperature straighteners and especially was attached to my CHI in America, but GHD doesnt come 2nd, it actually ties! High quality, easy temperature control settings and love the long long cord which helps in the bathroom or bedroom wherever you are straightening your hair. Also love that it has a guarentee.
  14. Excellent

    K

    I replaced my old straightener with this one and it is great. My hair is so shiny and it heats up quickly. Love it!
  15. Great product

    Courtney

    I updated after having the original GHD for years. So glad I did! Its straightens and curls so easily. Heats up quickly and so light to hold. Highly recommend.
  16. Love my hair straightener

    Emily

    I love my new ghd hair straightener. It’s so awesome. I love the look of it and how quick it heats up. It makes my frizzy thick hair super straight and sleek with minimal damage
  17. Amazing styler!

    Ren

    I brought this product to make my hair wavy, as I have pretty straight hair already. Initially I found it hard to use because I was a GHD rookie but after a few YouTube tutorials I mastered it! It is so easy to use and creates perfect beachy waves! Would definitely recommend.
  18. Good

    B

    Good straightener that has lasted me years. makes hair smooth with less damage. Would recommend.
  19. GHD Gold don't ruin my hair

    Chele Pagno

    I have had mine for a while now and still works well for me. I have thick wavy hair and the GHD makes my hair look wonderful. Keeps it nice so I dn't hve to re straighten it for a few days at least :)
  20. GHD is my go to styling tool

    Willow

    I have been using GHD styling tools for as long as I can remember and will not use any others. The GHD straightener is lightweight, easy to use and leaves hair straight. I also use this for waving and curling my hair! It does not pull on hair or feel like it's dragging. The best straightener I've used!
  21. The only straightener I will use

    Tee

    GHD are the only brand I will use when it comes to straighteners, it leaves my hair feeling smooth & shiny and not only can I straighten my hair but because of its perfect sized plates, I can also creates curls in my hair - bonus!
  22. hair so silky

    monique

    hair feels so silky and smooth. less damaging on the hair than other straightners
  23. Nothing gives you shinier hair

    Emma

    I own both GHDs and cloud nines (and a L’Oréal steam pod). I alternate depending on what look i’m After. I have lots of long, thick, wavy/curly hair that can be fluffy/frizzy at times. When I want my hair to look it’s sleekest I always pull out a Ghd, they are the best for smoothing the hair I think. I do find that I have to pull the straightener in a bit of ‘c’ towards my body when I get the the ...

  24. Very happy with purchase!

    Kimberley

    I bought this to replace a straightener I've had for a decade and I love it! I've got fine damaged hair and this is really nice to my hair, it doesn't create frizz and the heat is always perfect. The little heat cover for the end is great for putting away quickly.
  25. GHD Gold

    Laura

    I've got damaged hair and haven't purchased a straightner in a long time due to me not using one all that often to avoid more damage, I've had this for around 2 months now along with the heat spray and its been amazing. Its great for curling and the tool itself looks amazing its easy to use just great.
  26. In love!

    D

    I borrowed my sisters recently and absolutely love this new GHD! My current GHD of 10+ years has just died and thinking of getting this one after testing it, my hair straightened so quickly and didn’t feel dry or look frizzy! Salon results at home in minutes
  27. Good product

    Michelle

    GHD is a great company that makes good straighteners. I have never had an issue with them, although I recently bought a Cloud Nine and I feel I might like it even better. This product is slightly better than the standard entry level one - still a great brand & product overall!
  28. Should've bite the bullet sooner!

    Karen

    I've put off buying a straightener til now because I can blow-dry my hair straight or I always tied my hair up, but with a little one I barely have time to blow-dry. It wasn't until my hairdresser used the GHD gold on me and it got thinking about buying one.

    I'm happy I decided to buy it (especially during the EOFY sale). It's quick to start up and smooths my thick hair in 10 mins. My...

  29. Great straightener

    Yasmin

    I have thick, curly, frizzy hair and this GHD works great. It straightens my hair and tames my frizz and leaves it smooth. I would recommend this over the GHD Platinum however I would say there isn't much difference between this one and the original GHD
  30. The best

    Kaylah

    You really can't go past this straightener. It's simple to use and effortlessly straightens, curls, crimps, you name it. Heats quickly and glides through my hair.
  31. best straightener

    paris

    ive been using ghd for over 15 years and although the very first ones made in production lasted so much longer because they used to be made in Italy, the current ones still work just as good and i think the plates have improved as well... having said that, this model works great for me... it straightens my hair, works better than any other i have ever used, it’s lightweight, glides smoothly and ma...

    Absolutely recommend this hair tool ,It straightens,it curls the ends with ease, I am happy I spent the money.
  33. Couldn’t be without it

    Fleur

    Love my GHD straightener, it heats up fast, gets to a good temperature and straightenes my hair perfectly.
    It shuts off automatically if forgotten so that’s peace of mind. I find it’s gentle on my hair. Gives good results every time.
  34. Never worry about leaving your straightener on!

    Lane

    I love this straightener. It heats up fast, glides smoothly through my hair, can straighten or curl and shuts off when I forget to.
  35. Damaged my hair :(

    Shannon

    Switched from Cloud Nine to GHD last year. All I can say is that this iron FRIED my hair! It straightened my thick frizzy hair ok, but damaged it so badly I had to keep having trims to get rid of the split ends. My hair is still recovering, had to stop using it and it is starting to look much better. Maybe the platinum would be more suitable? I wish it had a temperature setting you could control. ...

    I remember my early teens using ghd straighteners and I LOVED them. But now it's not as good. There are some better, more affordable products.
  37. So glad I chose this one!

    Emily

    Had my original ghd for like 10 years, just replaced it with the gold styler and it’s a pleasure to use!

    My hairs medium length and fine(ish) but there’s lots of it and it doesn’t hold curl well..but I could do nice full waves, really fast and the style held well. No catch or drag and the actual straightener felt lighter to hold (adds to comfort) and was shaped perfectly to achieve...

  38. Amazing Straightener!

    Amy

    I have thick, curly hair and I have never been so impressed with a straightener before! It leaves my hair feeling soft and healthy, I straighten or curl my hair nearly everyday and this is the only straightener that hasn’t damaged my hair. It is also very time efficient, despite being a cooler temp it manages to straighten my hair better and faster. The results also last for days, even in humid we...

    Jodie

    I bought this for my teenage daughter she loves it. It works really well and great that it has an automatic switch off after its not been used for a while.
  40. Not as good as it used to be

    Kylie Q

    Ghd was the first ever premium straightener that I owned. I used to love this brand but have to say that I’m disappointed that the products are not as good as they used to be.
  41. Worth the splurge

    Watto

    I have had mine for a few years and it is still going strong. It is ergonomic and easy to use with both left and right hands. Great for lots of styling - curling, straightening, up doos etc I love it.
  42. Super effective

    Ellie

    This has been a staple for my hair for years. Heats up really quickly and is really effective so you don't have to continue straightening the same hair for ages. I've also learnt how to use it to curl hair so its essentially two for one :)
  43. The best

    Ellie

    This is the best straightener out there! It straightens hair quickly and efficiently, and my hair stays straight for ages after using it which I love. Doesn't seem to do much damage to my hair either which is good.
  44. Best hair straightener I’ve used

    Melanie

    Leaves my hair perfectly straight and friz free in about 2 mins!
    Wouldn’t go anywhere without it anymore. I have fine / thin hart hat is usually left with fly always post straightening but haven’t found that with this straightener
  45. the best

    E

    all my hair styling tools are ghd, i highly recommend! they last forever and work really well for all hair types
  46. Excellent

    Fleur

    Love my ghd straightener, fast to heat up, gets great results straightening, leaves my hair very sleek and smooth! I have had my ghd for 8 years and it’s still going strong. Worth the cost. You can either straighten or curl your hair with this straightener depending on what technique you use.
  47. Worth the purchase

    Sara

    I adore GHD. My last one lasted over 10 years! Definitely cost per use value. I decided to spend the little extra for my next one and try the Gold Professional. I have had it for a couple of months now. The heat protecter for the tips is handy, and the all black casing makes it look super sleek. This straightener glides through my hair, and I use it for both straightening and curling. I always re...

    I have had the GHD gold for years and have never had an issue with it! such consistent results! Heats up really quickly and the automatic turn off is a lifesaver!
  49. Amazing as always.

    Natalie

    I have been using GHD products since I can remember and every time i buy something new i remember why- they are the best! Yes it's pricey but I only ever use the best for my hair and so far my money has been more than well spent. cannot recommend GHD enough!
  50. Very Impressive

    mandy50

    A long time I have had in wanting to buy one and decided now was the time. I have fairly thick hair that has to be thinned out all the time and definitely needs to be straightened.

    This straightener is amazing and I am so impressed with the speed of heat and the temperature it gives my hair. No extreme heat burning of the hair.

    It is so easy to use and glides along your...

  51. There's a reason it's called a classic

    Gemma

    Always good, always consistent, have used this type since I discovered GHDs and wouldn't go elsewhere. Best straightener on the market!
  52. Smooth to use, no catches or snags along the way

    Melissa

    My old straighter died and I decided it was time to splurge on a good one considering my hair is now thinning thanks to hormones! I love how quick this heats up, it doesn't catch on my hair like my old straightener and it just glides on through. I also got the mat and bag and feel better about using them then just leaving it on the bench top. I haven't tried to curl with it yet but my hairdresser ...

  54. Fantastic product

    Di

    I have super fine hair and this straightener leaves my hair soft and silky smooth.

    I had my old GHD for over 10 years and I am so glad I decided to upgrade. Hope to have this straightener for another 10 years
  55. Worth its weight in gold!

    Neff88

    I bought this GHD as an update to my previous GHD (bought in 2012). I found this straightener glides through my hair effortlessly, leaving it silky smooth and straight. I find this straightener reduces my time straightening my hair, and it feels so lightweight compared to the previous more bulky GHD's.
  56. Brilliant

    Robyn

    I’ve had my ghd for over 10 years and while it still works well I decided to update with the new model.

    This is such an improvement on my older model, I have a short bob which tends to be frizzy and this glides through so effortlessly leaving my hair so soft and silky.

    Definitely glad I updated!
  57. 10/10

    Danielle

    Loving the ghd gold.
    Glides through my thick hair took me 15-20 to straighten my hair usually it 30-40 so half the time. Love the sleek black design.
    Do yourself a favour and buy one.
  58. Amazing

    Taylah (Adore Beauty Staff)

    I loved the way this styler glided through my hair! I also found the time it took to straighten my entire head of curls was significantly shorter than my previous straightener. I'm a huge fan of the super curved edges- Making waves and crimped styles so much easier to achieve!
  59. So silky

    Joanna (Adore Beauty Staff)

    My hair is fairly straight naturally, it just gets the occasional kink or wave in it, so I still like to straighten the ends. I've had the same ghd styler for about 10 years now, and I'd noticed in the last couple of years it wasn't giving me the same super silky and sleek locks it had before. Then I tried the new gold styler, and I WANT ONE. It's really light and manoeuvrable, and super easy to a...

  60. Compact

    Shanthi (Adore Beauty Staff)

    The first thing I noticed about the new ghd was the size of the handle, it's considerably smaller than the IV which means its much easier to handle, better for travel and lighter in weight. The gold also heats up super quickly which I love and doesn't feel like its doing any damage.
  61. gives beautiful curls

    Olivia (Adore Beauty Staff)

    I used this for curling my hair and it was so amazing. My curls lasted all day and it did not give the pull on your hair like some irons can once I brushed my curls out they turned into the most amazing waves that lasted and didn't drop out once. HIghly recommend
  62. Compact, lightweight and still great for long hair!

    Yasamin (Adore Beauty Staff)

    I rarely use heat tools on my hair as it's quite thick and curly, styling it takes forever and I usually can't be bothered. This straightener would be perfect for someone like me, it's small and lightweight, the plates heat up super fast and I don't have to do the same section over and over. This means I can style my hair quicker and I'm not worried about frying it. It also has curved edges so it'...

  63. Perfect for waves

    Mickey (Adore Beauty Staff)

    Finally a styler that is perfect for waves on a long bob (shoulder length hair).
    It has a shorter barrel so easier to twist and turn.
    It has a round barrel so my hair glides through - no snags on the edge like the older stylers.
    It is super fast to turn on which is a bonus!


  64. GHD IS BACK!

    Vanessa (Adore Beauty Staff)

    I had my previous styler for about 7 years now and I noticed the plate was gripping my hair and causing my hair to snap. I thought I'd go for a GHD Styler again, as they have a decent warranty and my last style pulled through for so long!

    This new and improved ghd gold just glides through my hair, removes any frizz and leaves my hair looking salon fresh!
