Which GHD's????
My husband has given me a gift token for Boots to buy myself some GHD straighteners but I am not sure which model to buy and I dont want to get it wrong as they are so expensive.
Are the wider ones better than the slimmer style. I have quite long hair (about 4" longer than my shoulder) but it is quite fine. I have texted my hairdresser and she uses both so she wasnt much help ![]() Any help would be much appreciated

I have very thin and fine hair, and though it's shorter now, it was pretty long when I bought my GHDs. I have the slimmer ones and they're great. My stepmum has the wide ones which don't work as well on my hair at all as the thin ones.

I have had both slimline GHD's and wide plate GHD's. My OH got me wide plate ones for Christmas which I prefer as my hair is fine but quite thick which is what they are made for.

My hairs just a little bit longer than yours and ive got the 1" ones, ive tried the really thick ones but there really chunky and i found that they dont slide down your hair as easily, I've also tried the very slim ones and they take ages to straightern all of your hair. I prefer the 1" ones because i find they curl hair better and they dont take ages to do a whole head.

which ghds
i had the wide, salon ghds but now have the normal size, in pink. i had the wide ones for 4.5 years but replaced them for two reasons:
the new versions have a 30 min shutoff, which will save me from sitting at work worrying that i have fried my cats by leaving them on. if you get kinks in the inch or two closest to your scalp, its impossible to get these with the wider plates... i have long thick hair, but only loose waves and the normal plates work just as well. |

The wider plate ones are for thick hair, the very thin ones are for styling (curling, flicks, etc.)
I would go with the standard 'medium' size ![]() I paid $299 for the hot pink ones, then saw they brought out purple ones... I want!
