GHD Hair Straightener GHD Flat Iron- ON SALE

GHD Hair Straightener GHD Flat Iron

The new GHD Flat Iron is absolutely fab-u-lous! This thing heats up almost instanty and gives you spectacular results. I am going to put some info on here from Sephora about the iron- 1" works best for curls and other styles- and also let you know my thoughts. This iron is perfect. I would never recommend using any other flat iron again. We know that Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Victoria Beckham, and many other celebs use this iron and this is why...heat distribution is totally even, the plates are floating which allows for a better straight and the 1" design I mentioned allows for even more styles. The plates are ceramic which completely cuts down on damage to your hair, it locks in moisture and the natural oils in your hair so you don't have that fried look and it heats up almost instantly when you plug it in. I was so amazed. You can get the GHD STYLER at a great discount online or go to sephora.. but expect to pay a pretty penny buying it from a retail store.

What it is:
Endorsed by the world's top session stylists and hottest celebrities, the new, revolutionary professional ghd Styler maintains ghd's pioneering ceramic technology and unbeatable operating temperature while boasting new features such as an improved body shape and curved barrel for ultimate styling.

What it does:
The unique ceramic technology heats up to its maximum temperature in seconds and locks in moisture, natural oils, and hair color for total hair protection. The new ghd styler makes it even easier to create curls, twists, flicks, and waves, while retaining its unrivalled ability to achieve straight and sleek hair.

New features and benefits:
-New, improved body shape facilitates curling effects as well as straight styling.
-Improved circuitry maintains a more constant styling temperature. The iron heats up to its maximum temperature every millisecond ensuring optimum heat on the hair from root to tip.
-Sleep mode function automatically switches iron off if it is not used for 30 minutes.
-Universal voltage feature operates from 110V to 230V by sensing the incoming voltage, making it great for travelers.
-Outer casting is made from Rynite®, a fire-retardant material that ensures the outer casting does not get too hot when you're styling hair or handling the product.
-Includes an instructional DVD.

High performance properties:

-Designed to create curls, twists, flicks, and waves, as well as straighten the hair.
-Ceramic-coated aluminum plates help seal the cuticle and create shine while locking in hair's natural moisture, preventing atmospheric moisture from re-penetrating hair.
-Emits a large proportion of infrared heat and negative ions, both of which are less damaging to the hair, reducing static and creating shine by closing the cuticle.
-Conventional irons use PTC or copper-wound elements, which are less efficient at emitting infrared heat and negative ions and can dry out the hair.
-A 9-foot swivel cord prevents tangling and damage.
-Floating blades provide flexibility and smoothness when styling.
-A built-in microprocessor embedded in one of the blades monitors and regulates the blade temperature 5 times a second.
-If the temperature exceeds its maximum regulated temperature, the thermal fuse will blow, resulting in the iron switching off.
-The thermal fuse is a safety feature to prevent the iron from overheating.
To achieve straight, sleek locks:
-Lightly mist hair with GHD Thermal Protector.
-Open the iron and place a section of dry hair between the plates.
-Ensure that the iron is as close to the root as possible before closing the plates.
-Gently move the iron downward - from root to tip - in one simple gliding motion.
-Repeat the process with each section of hair, gliding once from roots to ends.

To achieve stunning curls:
-Lightly mist hair with GHD Thermal Protector.
-Section the hair, and lightly mist with GHD Creation Spray to secure hold when creating each curl.
-Position the iron vertically, 1 inch away from the root.
-Gently close the iron with minimum tension.
-Turn the iron 90° clockwise and continue to turn the iron another 90°.
-For an intense, S-shaped, vertical curl, pull the iron very slowly away from the head in a continuous, smooth movement.
-To complete the style, repeat for all sections.
-Finally, separate and dress the curls with your fingers.

To achieve seductive, soft waves:

-Lightly mist hair with GHD Thermal Protector.
-Section the hair, and lightly mist with GHD Creation Spray to secure hold while styling.
-Position the iron vertically, 1 inch away from the root.
-Gently close the iron with minimum tension.
-Turn the iron 90° clockwise.
-For a soft, S-shaped, vertical curl, pull the iron quickly through the hair and away from the head in a continuous smooth movement.
-To complete the style, repeat for all sections.
