    Hi-trust me NO-ONE on this earth has hair frizzier than me !!

    And I never spend a fortune on GHDs-get yourself a set of "HAIRTOOLS THERMO CERAMIC "straighteners-you can buy them new off ebay-for about £35.

    I swear by these-I use them all the time and my hair stays poker straight...if only they`d been around back in the 80`s-I wouldn`t have had to dry my fuzz ball hair out even more by crimpimg it to death-lol !

    GHDs are definately the best. If you are getting your hair cut short, then ask your hairdresser to use their GHDs on you (all hairdressers have them, so they must be the best). If you go through something like Salon Services, or know someone in the trade you could get them for around £80. Also, GHD have a good website where you can watch videos of hair styling.

    In the UK, GHD are the best brand. Like some-one has previously said, you can buy them direct from most hairdressers, or I bought mine in Superdrug for £92.99, about a week before Christmas last year. I think they will still be there?

    If you are in America, I believe the best brand is CHI, but I dont live there, so I couldnt tell you where to buy them or how much they are =*

    Goodluck! I bet your hair will look lovely.

    CHI is seriously the best hairstraightener you will ever invest in. I've used many different types and have never been happier than I am with my CHI. It's a bit pricy, costs up to 200 dollars in salons. I got mine at the JcPenney Salon for 80 bucks. It was originally 150, but it was on sale.

    It straightens just about any kind of hair and it does not harm your hair at all.

    You can also get the heat protecting CHI spray which keeps your hair healthy and shiny.

    Good Luck!

    GHD's are the best buy, they last and are made so that you only have to go over your hair once with them, so that you don't have to keep going over and over the same bit. They are also really smooth and glide over your hair. I've had my hair long and really short, and they've been great.

    I got mine from their website, but you can also get them from hairdressers (be careful they don't charge you more tho!). Good luck in finding some that suit you.

    ghds are only the label, go to you local hair dresser and thye will give u some just as good and half the price. Or you can but straighteners online.

    GHDS are worth the money! alot of range saloons sell GHDS or go to the locla website www.ghdhair.com before you straighten your hair use a heat protecting spray or straighting cream and let it atleast be 80% dry for lesser damamger and section it off and straighten it! :)

    ghds - you can get them from all good salons and from the internet only. they will cost around £100 unfortunately, but yes, they are the best, nothing else comes close which is why so many people shell out that much for them. i just got short strait too, i love it! peacex

    GHD's are the best, you can buy them for about £100 quid off their website or go to e-bay and get them for about £50.
