Looking for a reliable, effective straightener that respects your hair? GHD is the straightener brand our hairdressers use in our 3 salons. It's our choice, not an official ranking: here's what convinced us about this British brand.

Controlled heat

GHD designs its tools to straighten effectively while limiting stress on the hair fibre: a controlled temperature and plates that heat evenly.

A temperature of 185 °C

According to the brand, its straighteners operate at 185 °C: hot enough to straighten, while limiting stress on the hair. No temperature is without effect on hair: always remember to use a heat protector.

Ultra-fast heat-up

Ready in a few seconds, ideal for rushed mornings or quick touch-ups before an evening out. Handy for saving time in your routine.

Even heat

GHD states that the temperature is even across the whole plate, for uniform straightening, with no spot hotter than another.

Cutting-edge technology

According to the brand, its straighteners regulate the heat to keep the right temperature. The technology depends on the model: ultra-zone on the Platinum+, dual-zone on the Gold, for example.

Our hairdressers' advice

In the salon, our hairdressers can show you how to use a straightener properly and protect your hair from heat, especially if it's sensitised.

According to the brand, a GHD straightener does not go above 185 °C, even after several minutes of use. Controlled heat means less stress on your hair: still, remember to use a heat protector.

Its ergonomic design makes styling easy, even for beginners, thanks to its intuitive grip, its rounded tip, its floating plates that glide effortlessly and its 360° swivel cord.
