Most of UK people think ghd hair straighteners so good. The key behind the superior performnace of the ghd hair straightener was down to 3 main factors.

1. GHD flat iron was the first to recognize the use of ceramic in Hair straighteners ! This simple innovation has of course been subsequently copied by pretty much every manufacturer since. Ceramic is great because it conducts heat effectively but also because it allows the iron to slide through the hair with snagging.

2. GHD’s technology allowed the irons to heat up very quickly indeed. Back in 2000, the flat iron reached it’s optimium temperature in 10 seconds or so – about 10 times faster than competitor Hair straighteners . More importantly the iron maintained temperature. Other models loose heat as soon as the Hair straighteners start to be used (the hair absorbs the heat). It is the maintenance of the temperature of the iron that is crucial.

3. No hot spots! If you placed a thermometer (don’t try this at home) at various places on the plate of competitor Hair straighteners you would see that the temperature varies considerably according to where you place it. The Hair straighteners has a matrixed heating element embedded in it to ensure even heat distribution through the plate.

The original iron is now on its fourth incarnation with several improvements made with each new version that is released. The new Hair straighteners (same size late as the original) has just been launched in limited quantities as part of teh pink and Christmas promotions but will be launched as an invidual item early in 2007.
