hair straighteners which ones? - 22-09-06, 10:17 AM

i have had my straighteners for years but they have just broke down on me now and i need some new ones. OMG which ones do i choose i know nothing about hair straighteners what so ever, all i want is quick heat and once down the hair and it's done which ones do i choose. I have short hair to my shoulders and my daughter has lovely long blonde hair.

Any reccommendations please nothing over the top for price though.

Go down to boots or superdrug and check the back of the boxes. They usually have loads of offers on to save some cash. You want to be looking for ones that heat up to 200 or higher but pref with a control so you can lower the temperature when you do your daughters. Also solid ceramic last a lot longer than plated. hope this helps

GHD's are the best! Can't go wrong with them! I love mine and I don't know where I would be without them!!! They had a deal on Superdrugs with the GHD's not sure if they are still there! But they are definately worth every penny!!

GHDS for me aswell! I love how they heat up so quick and i curl my hair with them and everything!

My hairdresser mum did say to me once that you are just paying for the name of them and said you can get the same ones just basically have a different name! She did tell me the brand but cant remember now!
