Genie straighteners £9.99 (was £62.99) very similar to GHD.

Hi, Just to let you know these arrived today in a lovely box, (perfect if you wanted to give them as a gift) and work perfectly. The plates are slightly narrower and they take slightly longer to heat up but other than that I can honestly say there is very little difference to the Kiss GHD's I normally use. The Genie straighteners are lighter so will definitely be coming on holiday with me (travel being the whole point of me buying a spare set). Thanks again OP, an absolute bargain.0

I use GHD's but gonna take a gamble & give them a try, but if you type in Genie in the search bar on the site instead of following the link hey are £8.32 instead off £9.99. .... Bit random but saves a bit!!!0

Thanks OP, mine are giving up now and I can't justify the cost of GHDs etc!0
