ghd Platinum Plus Styler Cobalt, Blue

Product Information

When it comes to styling, the iron aims to do double duty. Let’s be real: a decent chunk of straightening irons are just that: straightening irons. But with curved edges that glide with the hair, the GHD Platinum Plus Styler allows for beach waves, curls, mermaid crimps, and more. Plus the swivel cord can be moved any which way for comfortable styling. To see if this hot tool is *actually* a game changer or just another styler to stow away in the bathroom cabinet, I put it to the test. Why I’m Obsessed A female's hair is her own crown of glory and consequently needs to be Treated like royalty. Are you currently considering setting your hair under some other hair treatment regime? It's extremely crucial touse top quality hair care products to make certain you get the complete head of hair in any way times. How will this be achieved? It's extremely straightforward, see GHD Hair store and you may surely don't have any regrets.

Today, the brand has expanded from its original straightener to offer around half a dozen different models of GHD straighteners, suitable for a range of hair types. GHD has also extended into hair dryers and hot brushes, allowing the creation of a vast range of styles and looks, from super-sleek straight hair to fashionably beachy waves. Hair health remains a priority for GHD, with new models featuring intelligent heat sensors and protective technology that reduces damage to heat-treated hair. Styling our hair, as we’d expect, took a little longer, but only marginally so at 2 minutes and 20 seconds.GHD has even patented the shapes of the holes in the grille to make the dryer quieter, and it is. Noticeably so. The GHD Air wasn’t a loud dryer so we weren’t concerned going into this review, but it’s a nice improvement and brings the level of noise down to Dyson levels. Key specs – Plates: Floating ceramic; Maximum temperature: 185°C; Voltage: Universal; Cord length: 2.7m swivel cord; Automatic shut-off time: 30 minutes; Warranty: 3 years; Weight: 750g

Although the heat and power settings are the same between the two models, the GHD Helios has had a motor boost – 2,200W up from the Air’s 2,100W. This exceeds the power of the Nanoe and the Dyson by 400W and 600W respectively but this is largely moot. As the Dyson proved with its 1,600W motor, it’s not the amount of power but rather what the dryer does with it that counts. Simply blasting air as fast and as hot as possible at your hair won’t give you the desired effect. It will cause turbulence and leave your hair frizzy and dry. And that brings us onto the GHD Helios’ performance. GHD Helios review: Performance The rounded barrel of the platinum+ is perfect for creating a myriad of on-point styles, from loose waves to a flawless straight. For ultimate styling control, the unique wishbone hinge holds the precision-milled plates in perfect alignment for ease of use and snag-free styling. With universal voltage, you can be as fierce as you want anywhere in the world and with the automatic sleep mode after 30 minutes of non-use, worrying about if your straighteners are switched off is a thing of the past.GHD has also seemingly solved the issue that plagued a number of GHD Airs we tested in that the nozzle fits tightly enough to not twist and move as you’re drying your hair. To create waves and curls, simply wrap each tress of hair around the tool and pass the straightener along the hair, as directed above, allowing the hair to roll around the straightener rather than holding it straight while it cools – your hair will take on a curled shape instead. Most importantly, the Platinum Plus uses GHD’s most advanced intelligent predictive heat technology that measures and adjusts the temperature of the tool constantly as you style. The result is evenly distributed heat that won’t scorch the hair. And because the correct temperature is maintained, the plates won’t cool and you won’t have to run them through the same tress of hair more than once. The Gold heats up in under 30 seconds, and uses two heat sensors to maintain an even temperature across each plate. Overall this model is heavier than some of the other GHDs, however, the Gold is solidly built and glides through the hair easily for ‘one-stroke straightening’ on most hair types. Straight and curled styles both stay in place well all day after styling, and for safety there’s an automatic shut-off after 30 minutes.

The best GHD hair straighteners you can buy 2023 1. GHD Platinum Plus Styler: Best for straightening curly hair Each shop has different policies and some stores will have ongoing or permanent discounts; but stores like ghd have a shorter promotion period. We have noted that the average NHS or healthcare discount for ghd lasts for 121 days on average. This figure is based on our own internal research. GHD’s Gold model of straightener differs from its brandmates as a result of its lightweight, rounded barrel that makes it easy to manoeuvre the tool around the head. This barrel design is also particularly good for creating straightener curls and waves – simply wrap your hair around the barrel where you’d like the curl to start, and allow your hair to roll around the barrel as you draw the tool through your hair. Hey presto! Flowing straightener curls. I will never ever shop at ghd again, after these replacement ghds break and i cant get a replacement as the warranty runs out i will by from a better company, ghd have lost out on my custom, and i have warned friends and family about buying them, if u do this then u can cut down on the amount of profit they get, and then maybe they will sort out their rubbish product and make it more reliable..Featuring a brushless motor, controls for the heat settings and variable power allowing you to achieve smoother results and set your look. We’ve tested the current lineup of models to help you choose the best GHD straightener for your hair type and the look you want to achieve. If you’re in the market for a premium straightener, read on for our guide to choosing the best GHD straightener for you, followed by our rundown of the current choices below. Built with the same floating ceramic plates as the rest of the GHD range, the Mini delivers a smooth and silky finish with no snaggles. And the slim plates mean that there will be no kinks or bumps at the roots when you straighten shorter hair. The rounded barrel means you can create waves and curls, even on shorter hair. In just one minute and six seconds, our hair went from wet out of the shower to dry. This is a minute faster than the Supersonic, which itself is a minute faster than the competition. It was slightly slower at drying our hair after a swim – 1 minute and 50 seconds. By comparison, the GHD Air took a little under four minutes for the latter. What’s more, despite this test only rough drying our hair, we didn’t feel the need to use straighteners to complete the look and smooth flyaways. A rarity. The feel of the Helios is a cut above, too. The plastic shell of the GHD Air feels a little rough to the touch by comparison, and the plastic shell of the Helios feels smoother, silkier – almost like silicone. It also replaces the hard plastic hook by the cable with a soft silicone loop which is attractively branded; the GHD name imprinted on a chrome-plated button. Similar branding appears on the rose gold grille, and even the holes in the filter and the shape of the impeller inside have an industrial beauty to them.

It is however the most stylish of the bunch, and performance is a distinct step up from both the Air and the Nanoe. In fact, we’d say it’s the first hair dryer to rival the Dyson Supersonic for sheer drying power – and that’s an impressive feat. At this price, you really only have two dryers to choose from – and they both happen to be sold by GHD. GHD’s standard-sized straighteners will style most hair types and lengths with ease. But if you’re after precision styling for your short crop, pixie cut or face-framing fringe pieces, then the Mini’s half-inch plates are just what you need. If you’re looking for a Christmas gift for the beauty lover in your life, the Platinum Plus Festive gift set brings together the ultra-fast and healthy straightening of the Platinum Plus model with a handy can of GHD’s Bodyguard heat-protective spray, a wide paddle brush to finish your style after straightening, and an elegant heat-resistant carry bag so your giftee can carry the straightener anywhere. Create gorgeous waves and enhance your natural curls with a diffuser or style a straight, sleek and smooth look with a concentrated nozzle. Adjustable heat and speed settings allow you to choose the perfect setting for your hair type and specific needs. Designed for ultimate comfort while styling, the ghd helios hair dryer is lightweight, ergonomically balanced and fitter with bespoke acoustic system technology to ensure low sound levels when in use. This hair dryer has ionic technology to reduce frizzy hair and flyaways.

The limited edition GHD gold hair straightener is set at 185 degrees, the optimum heat for styling hair to avoid accidental damage. As well as this, the straightener has an automatic sleep mode after 30 minutes to put your mind at ease. why should the customer have to pay to have a sh*t product replaced/fixed.
