    Judging by the pm s I have had asking for the seller details people are interested in these cheap straighteners. But they say they are scared to post incase you two have a go at them as well.

    I hope you are proud of yourselves.

    This post was originally made with good intentions and was not intended to be another "what are the best straighteners post" which has been done to death.

    It was for people who could not afford anything else.

    It is all about GHD's. I'd rather spend a bit more money on them and know that they'll last as opposed to my cheap ones (£50) that just aren't a patch on GHD's.

    £2.99 on a pair of hair straightners? I think you'll get what you pay for there!
    I run an event management company, I put on events, I go to events, if I don't know anything about events - its not worth knowing!

    Are the hair devils straighteners the same as GHD to create flicks and to straightened hair in one stroke?

    Do they heat up straight away when turned on??

    i read reveiws on here(http://www.hey-dollface.com/2008/01/hair-styles-hai.html) and it seems to be good, any feedback from MSE users would be great.

    It's GHDs all the way for me, still have my first ones 7 years on and they are as good as new! They've cost me about £12 a year, bargain...
