Whilst the quality of these is just as expected, I found something of a snag that never did expect and it’s than when I use it to curl, which is designed to do as well as straightening, the borders pulled my hair out. Not sure if only mine has a poor finish as I never heard this before. Otherwise I do notice my hair is healthy and shiny after using it and lasts a lot longer than I’m used to for my thick unruly hair.
Purchased as a gift to replace so older GHD’s, she is happy with them so that’s a win for me!
I am told they heat up quick, are lightweight and easy to use.
I’ve used GHD straighteners for over 20 years and these platinum GHD’s do not disappoint. They are lightweight, heat up in seconds and so easy to use. Happy with my purchase.
I’ve used a few straighteners before, although rarely, and my girlfriend with wavy hair actually uses this more, but this is probably the best one I’ve used so far.
Great quality and nicely packaged like a beautiful gift set, although it only has the straighteners and a paddle brush. Has a luxurious feeling with the modern simplistic style to the box, and looks
Very good size, and not too heavy. Comes with a pouch to carry it in, so portability is thought through thoroughly, which is great. Comfortable to hold, as it’s not too big and heavy.
My girlfriend’s hair is only wavy, so one stroke and her hair straightens out, so the effects are good.
229.00 isn’t cheap though. Straighteners of all brands and variations do come cheaper, but some damage hair quite badly, while this one works very well, although it is very costly. That said, compared to the likes of a Dyson Airwrap, this is much cheaper, but I’ve never used a Dyson Airwrap to be able to compare. This is just a straightener though, so less styling options, although with skill, I’m sure there’s a lot this can achieve, including creating wavy hair or even curls.
Overall, this is great and recommendable.
I love using this hair straightener every day. I even use it on days when I am staying at home because I love how fast and easy it is to transform my fizzy hair into gorgeous straight, shiny and professional-looking hairstyles.
Even with using it every day, I haven’t noticed any damage to my hair. What a fantastic upgrade from my old, hair-damaging, hair straightener.
This set came with a lovely bag, a professional GDH hairbrush, hair straighteners and a safety cover for the straightener. I am very happy with the cover that I can put on, just after turning off the straightener, to keep it away from causing any risk of burning to myself or the surfaces in my home. A simple and brilliant little addition.
This GHD hair straightener is perfect. It is turning on with a lovely sound and after about 10 seconds another sound lets me know that it is ready to use. When turning it off it makes a sound to let me know that it is off. The on/off button is inside the mouth of the straightener to prevent accidentally switching it off. Again, a simple and perfect addition to an amazing product.
The first time I used this straightener I could not believe how quick and easy it was to make my hair look gorgeous. Only one ‘run’ throw my hair and they already look great. Two minutes later my hair was all done. I was totally shocked at what and amazing experience this was.
The feeling of amazement has worn off now, but the satisfaction from doing my hair, and occasionally seeing my reflection in a mirror, is still present every single day.
Even my partner notices that I have done my hair and he definitely likes my new look. What can I say, other than if a man notices your hair, you are clearly doing something great with them.
This is GHD which has been around for years and offer top quality product and this is no exception. I have used other straightener in my younger years as they were a lot cheaper but wished I had invest in one of these earlier.
This is good for for straightening and curling. I like the rounded narrow which allows you to easily flick / curl your hair in. As you are doing it Arch section of your hair you can be very precise.
This model is excellent as it has a smart technology which some how adjusts its temperature base on what that particular section of your hair needs. This alone justify the price of 229. The result is achieved at much loweR temperature compared to other models and that will give less damage to your hair especially if you use it often.
I would still use heat protection spray obviously as it’s still heat !
My hair is shinier and I find it really easy to use, and the cord is designed to swivel smoothly when you move from one side to another top to bottom.
Really had a smooth and enjoyable experience using this!
This comes with heat pad and paddle brush as an extra! Why not?!
ghd Platinum+ Styler Giftset Edition – Hair Straighteners (Black) – 194.65 at time of review.
As always, fantastic quality hair straighteners/styler by ghd. I hope these stand the test of time, but ghd are in general, very good quality, so I’m sure they will.
This gift set comes with the Platinum+ smart straighteners/styler, a heat-resistant bag and a paddle hair brush. It’s a shame it doesn’t come with the heat-resistant mat like in the last photo, as I think that would have just finished this gift set off nicely; and it comes with the ‘Curve Creative Curl Wand Gift Set’, so I’m not sure why they haven’t included it in this one.
The straighteners are super quick to heat up to temperature and I love that there are sensors to keep them at the right temperature, so your hair is less likely to be damaged. Super easy to use and I have very long, thick hair (fine hair strands, but a lot of hair) and I had no problems straightening my hair.
Whilst this gift set is expensive, ghd are definitely worth the investment in my opinion. You can definitely tell the difference between low price, low quality straighteners and higher price, higher quality straighteners – not only from how the product psychically looks and feels, but in the styling outcome.
Therefore, I would definitely recommend this product.
Although it is expensive, works really well. My hair is sooo shiny after I use it and looks so much healthier than before, not just straighter. Easy to use, but I would be happier without any sound. but that is just me. Heats up fast, works well and so much better than other cheaper models. So I’d say it is recommended, especially for gifting as it comes with a nice box, bag and a brush
These are proper GHD quality, my wife has used GHD’s for years and swears by them and these aren’t any different.
The newer technology to lower the heat but still straighten works flawlessly and my wife was impressed as she normally has the temperature much higher.
They look fantastic and come in a very fancy box.
I can’t say much more about how good they are as they are GHD’s, much better than any cheaper straighteners.
Downsides are the very cheap musical chimes they play when you switch them on and get up to temperature remind me of a cheap Chinese Bluetooth speaker, they could have just had a beep or something.
The second not so good thing is the tiny rubber heat protector which slips over the end. It does the job but my wife puts her straighteners down while combing and would have benefited from a heat mat.
My wife owns a 5 heat mat/pouch from Amazon and these fit perfectly inside to keep them safe.
Overall very good, very expensive and cheaped out on a couple of non essential bits.
A luxurious, expensive feel GHD platinum straighteners, which works accordingly. I use heat protection spray first and then I apply the straightener on to my roots and then the ends. As I have coarse curly hair it takes a few tries for me to get the perfect straight hair. Gives my hair a sort of shine once I finished using this straightener. It comes with a paddle brush which is effective for styling and blow-drying. Comes in handy, if your hair is brittle and you want to smoothen it.
A perfect gift for someone in need or a treat for yourself. The unboxing experiencing felt luxurious & this trend continued into the feel & performance.
Straight forward to use after giving the instructions a quick read. Definitely an upgrade on my previous set of straighteners & will see these lasting years.
Included is a premium looking mat to avoid any burns on carpet after use (learned from experience – oops!)
Really happy with these and definitely something worth considering.
My wife has wanted a set of GHD hair straighteners for some time. I’ve bought her other brands, but she hasn’t really got to grips with them. I was really pleased when the opportunity came up to review these.
These really don’t disappoint. They’re the top of the line Platinum+ straighteners, presented in a gold colour and with the accompanying red velvet vanity case.
My wife has tight, naturally curly hair, so needs straighteners that can keep a consistent temperature, whilst being put through their paces. These tick all the boxes and are perfect for achieving straight hair. They heat up quickly and maintain a constant temperature during use, ensuring you don’t get any avoidable burning or overheating in sections.
Setting to the optimal temperature seems to work well and the temperature remains consistent, even when you have to use them up to the half hour cutoff point.
These are also a decent size; not too long or short. The length is perfect for just getting the right amount of hair through them.
You also have a set of tip covers included to protect from heat, but no heat mat that others tend to include.
Overall, these are impressive. In fact, my wife took them along to her hairdresser’s (a friend of ours) and she was quite envious of them. She’d recommended GHD ones, but only has an older pair herself that she uses.
First of all these ghd Straighteners are the best Straighteners I’ve ever used. Before having these Straighteners I was using cloud 9 which were really good but these ones are that bit better.
They don’t take long to heat up at all and they do a great job at Straightening my hair. I only needed to go over each strand of hair once and it was straight which is amazing and time saving especially if you’re anything like me and have no time to mess about in the mornings or have a teenage daughter trying to run off with the Straighteners. We’ve also used the Straighteners for curling our hair and that turned out good too, alot quicker than using curlers and our hair looked healthy afterwards too. I also love how long the cable is on these ghd Straighteners and the case that comes with them is brilliant for storing them in and quite stylish too. My little girl said it’s very fancy. The Straighteners do have an auto shut off aswel that turns the Straighteners off after around half an hour, maybe if they shut off after 15 mins that would be abit better but to be honest I don’t think there’s anything I dislike about them so if you want some decent, good quality Straighteners that do a good job and quickly then these are exactly that. They would make a fantastic gift for anyone. I’d highly recommend them.
I always say – you get what you’ve paid for. In this case you get high ghd quality and performance. The curls are done with ease and they hold up long. The best thing about this straightener is that the on button is on the inside (I go crazy with my old straightener as I constantly turn it off while using as the on/off button is on the outside).
Another thing it heats up literally with seconds.
Comes in a beautiful presentation box, for storage or as a gift . I love the silicone sleeve to keep it protected. The brush is ok, handle is better quality than actual brushing bit, it’s just standard. Best for a lot of hair not thin hair (although it will work too). Storage bag is great, has 2 hidden magnetic clips on each side. Great for traveling.
Photo shows silicone mat – it wasn’t in my box though.
Any lady / man with long hair will be happy to use it.
I would buy again and I would recommend. I hope my review and photos/video were helpful
I was a bit unhappy with the packaging for this ghds Platinum styler Christmas gift set. The box came wrapped in an open-ended plastic bag. Then the box itself was just open. No seals on it at all. Initially, I thought this might be an effort to reduce plastic packaging. But this doesn’t really stack up as the box came in a plastic bag and the stylers themselves are presented in a moulded tray made from hard to recycle black plastic. There’s even a little strip of plastic over the hardware on the storage bag. The absence of seals makes these look like a used return. The box itself is quite nice – made from stiff cardboard, with a lift off lid – but the lack of seals is concerning.
I received the set free to review, and I don’t know if this presentation is typical of how these come, or just something that had been done to review items. If it’s the former, which judging by the grumbling in the question and answers section it seems as though it might be, I’m really not impressed.
In all other respects this is a fantastic set, that I’m thrilled with. I have very fine, naturally almost completely straight hair so for straightening and styling, I have to be ultra careful to avoid damage. ghd straighteners are the best, and the gloss plates on the platinum edition really do work – I have a gold set I’ve had for a couple of years and you can definitely see the difference in finish after using these.
As ever for ghds, these have exemplary features: a long, rotating cord so they’re easy to turn and work with; plates that are a nicely balanced width for both straightening and creating curls/waves; a power switch that’s easy to use without being prone to accidentally shutting the stylers off; light weight. The black finish is understated and smart-looking. The wishbone hinge design of the platinum edition version makes the opening and closing mechanism incredibly light and easy to work with, giving it an almost bouncing, squeeze and release action.
A heat protective mat isn’t included, but in the box you do get a heat resistant silicone tip cover, a really good quality paddle hairbrush, and a well-made, attractive-looking heat resistant storage/carry bag. The storage bag has a divider flap section inside to keep the stylers separate from other items/away from their power cord.
Although described as a Christmas set, there’s nothing Christmassy about the packaging, so if you were thinking of getting this as a present it’s fine for any time of year and likely to be much appreciated.
It’s just a shame the box isn’t sealed.
This set may seem expensive at 229, but you get what you pay for. A top quality brand, deservedly, with top quality products, this is one brand that I don’t mind paying a premium for – your hair is important and needs looking after well – and ghd know what they’re doing.
The straighteners heat up quickly and are easy to hold and use. The brush is nice, too, and glides easily through the hair. The set is nicely presented too, in a presentation bag, and is very suitable for gifting. There are cheaper options available – very much cheaper, in fact – some of which would do a good job, but I would highly recommend these as a set that cares for your hair – it’s an investment and not likely to break in a few months, unlike cheaper options…and it has an auto-off function too, I understand, although I haven’t needed to use it yet.
My wife has not complained so this is always a good sign! If she is happy , I am happy. And found it cheaper than anywelhere else so no complaints from me either!
