Title: The Best Flat iron Ever
Review: This is the best flat iron I have ever used. I have used Chi, Sedu, Solia, Babyliss, hot tools and several others over the years. I have lived in some pretty humid places as well. I in VA now and it gets pretty humid during the summer.I have very frizzy, curly hair that does what it wants. LOL not anymore.I can flat iron my hair with this and the humidity doesn't affect it at all. Even when it's pouring rain outside. I may lose a little volume but no frizz, the waves I style last the next day too.I will never buy another flat iron brand. This is my forever one. Never again do I have to worry about frizzy hair. The standard heat setting seems to be perfect and it doesn't damage my hair anymore than usual. It heats up in less than 20 secs. Impressive!It's super easy to create curls, waves and bone straight. I am by no means a pro at styling but this GHD iron makes it super easy.I can NOT recommend this flat iron enough!!Get it!!

Title: Results are great
Review: It heats up really fast, in just a few seconds. It goes very smooth on my hair. My hair is normally very frizzy, I have to run other straighteners through my hair with a few strokes to get the result I wanted, and I still need to put on an anti-frizz hair oil at the end. But with this straightener, just one stroke is enough, my hair becomes very straight, silky and shiny, and I don’t even need to put on the anti-frizz hair oil. Love it, definitely worth the investment.

Title: Great tool
Review: This was very expensive so I was hesitant to purchase it, but I like the way it turns on quickly and also has an automatic turn off. It’s also easy to use.

Title: Broken, less than a year (but immediately kinda)
Review: UPDATE 2024: They've lost a customer for life. It's 2024, this $300 straightener has been replaced once because it pulls hair (look at picture), it's a design flaw that was unchanged when we finally got our replacement (process took over a month). This replacement has now, multiple times, done this "overheating" failsafe immediately after it's plugged in. That's on top of the pulling because they didn't design the body properly or chose junk materials. DO NOT BUY THIS. The GHD we had before this lasted over 5 years for half the price and never pulled or failed in any way until it finally did.2023: Bought this for my wife last year, as her previous GHD Straightener finally stopped working. I want to say we paid about $200 for that, and it lasted something very impressive; like 5 years+.This one, however, the GHD Platinum+ Professional Performance 1" Smart Styler has been trouble since the start. Immediately, the thing was grabbing her hair as the straightened. Annoying, but she dealt with it because when I contacted GHD it would have been this whole process where I wasn't sure I'd get a brand new one in return. Despite there clearly being a defect as the previous 1" GHD didn't grab her hair.Now, after almost a year of owning, this thing won't even turn on. It flashes red or something similar she said. Not only is newer, but it's also more expensive and supposedly "smarter" than the old model that worked flawless until it didn't.I would not recommend getting this. Now, I have to go through warranty pains on something that I never should have. What's worse, is I'm sure they won't send her one in the meantime. I'll have to send this in and wait for weeks.

Title: Awesome flat iron
Review: 4 out of 5 stars because expensive and doesn’t have adjustable heat settings. I have finer hair and I have still done ok with heat setting being only high. One pass through and straight, I haven’t found this with cheaper irons.

Title: Perfect
Review: This is just what i was looking for. The heat is a perfect temperature. It doesn’t burn your hair, but it’s strong enough to keep the style in place. Also it doesn’t leave your hair smelling burnt which is awesome.

Review: La tecnología de la plancha esta impresionante, deja un acabado impecable, el material no se atasca al momento de hacer ondas, el sonido que avisa cuando enciende, cuando la enchufes y cuando ya esta lista para usarse es una chulada GHD, ya tengo casi todas. Excelente, además mucho más baratas que en mercado libre

Review: I was initially a little leery to purchase this on amazon, I was worried it wouldn’t be “authentic”, but I decided to take the plunge and bought it. Upon arrival, I immediately went to GHD’s website and signed the product up for the warranty and had no problems so I’m happy to report the straightener is a genuine GHD product.This is my first expensive hair tool. All previous straighteners I’ve owned came from drug stores for $40. My hair stylist uses one in her salon on my hair all the time and I’m always so taken by how smooth it feels on my hair and how fast she curls my entire head. It slides like butter and it doesn’t pull the hair at all. I liked her straightener so much that I had to buy one for myself, despite the high price tag.So when it comes to actually using it, it’s very easy. The straightener claims to heat up in 20 seconds, but when I timed it, it actually heated up in 9 seconds which is very impressive. I have fine hair, so I’m always worried about excessive heat burning my hair, so the fact that this straightener didn’t have the option to choose your own heat made me a little nervous, but it’s been just over a month of using it and so far so good! The temperature always seems perfect and it only takes one pass to curl or straighten my hair! Because the shape of the iron is slightly thicker, I find it easier to get a nice curl.All in all, I think this was worth the money. It is a very high quality product and the honest fact is that my cheap drugstore straighteners don’t compare. I’m happy I splurged on this because it performs wonderfully!
