cheap GHD straightners

2

Comments

  • If you can, I recommend getting the special GHD gift bag version - I picked one up for my gf for Xmas and it comes with a roll-up heat resistant bag, a comb, hair clips and loads of bottles of girl stuff (shampoo, conditioner, pre-heat lotion, post-heat lotion, kitchen sink...) I picked a brand new one up on ebay for £95 ( and used a PayPal code so I got it for about £85 ;) )

    Have just ordered some ghds from hq hair and cant wait to try them out. I bought the extra wide salon styler and hair straightener. I can appreciate some people prefer the cheaper makes but it depends on your hair type. I have black hair which is both long and thick and they just dont cut it so I'm placing all my hopes on the ghds!!
    I used the 10% off code from beauty bible and will also get 7% cashback.

    I had some non GHD's & was lucky enough to have the real thing bought for me last Christmas by Mr. Husband...
    OMG, I will not go ANYWHERE without mine now.
    They are so quick to use & if you have v. thick hair, it makes it super-duper soft & silky straight.
    I use mine to make flips & loose bends too.
    Lastly, when you use GHD's your hair stays silky for a couple of days & you need maybe a 60 second top up if you suffer from a bit of bed head! ;)

    ps. Faster hair-do's = happy husbands & more time at parties.

    You cannot beat Ghds , but beware where u buy them from as they are supposed to be bought from a concept ghd salon , people selling them on ebay have removed the serial number so if they go wrong your guarantee is invalid.

    We sell them at work for £99 for normal size and £105 for the large ones.

    I get staff discount and can get them ( legit with Ghd guarantee and company receipt ) for £80 and £85 respectively , if anyone wants any, Im haopy to get for you.

    Bought the standard ones using a discount code a few months a go from hqhair.com and got an excellent service.
    Just went and checked for you and you can still use the code BEAUTYBIBLE to receive 10% off which takes the total cost down to £70, plus they are currently offering a free upgrade to special delivery on UK orders (checked 02/01/06).

    Hope this helps you get what you need.

    Just bought mine with this offer - thanks very much! I also went though Quidco to get 7% cashback too.

    Can't wait to get them now :j
