Disappointing

Verified Purchase
Needed some new straighteners so treated myself to GHDs. As a previous customer I knew they were good. However, I was so disappointed. They were so below par. Hair didn’t look or feel that great and the style didn’t hold into the next day. For that price I expected more! I returned them and bought a cheap set from Boots for a fraction of the price and they are way better. Most companies use ceramic technology now so you don’t need to pay high prices for decent products nowadays.
