'What I wish I had known before buying ghd hair straighteners' from a seasoned hair tool expert

Lifestyle image of two sets of ghd platinum stylers to illustrate what to know before buying ghds.

Let us fill you in on exactly what to know before buying ghds, so you can shop for a new pair of straighteners with confidence.

Ghd has long been the first name in heat styling, and for good reason. They make some of the best straighteners overall, plus some of the best cordless straighteners and best straighteners for thick hair too. But, that doesn’t mean that they’ll be everyone’s cup of tea, as what works for one person’s hair might not deliver on another. Take me and my best friend for instance – I have very thick, naturally curly hair while she has lovely naturally straight, silk hair – which means we both have quite different wants, needs and expectations when it comes to straighteners. For me, it’s professional straighteners or bust (the ghd platinum+ is my favourite) but for her a cheaper tool more than does the job.
