Buying a ghd hair straightener might seem daunting at first, especially when purchasing one is more of an investment than other tools available. And although the quality of its products is unmatched regardless of which tool you use, you might end up buying a straightener that isn't right for your hair type. If you have thick hair, for instance, a thinly plated hair straightener may not be the best option for you, and you probably won't get the most out of your hair tool.

Advice From The Experts:
To maintain the reliability and performance of your ghd hair straighteners, you should take time to look after them properly. Pete Burkill, go-to hair stylist for Millie Bobby Brown and The Beckhams, has some advice and tips on taking care of your hair straighteners.
'It's important to take care of your tools as if you throw them around and don't pack them properly, you can affect the thermometer or damage internal parts,' says Pete.
'This could lead to issues such as overheating, which can then cause excessive damage to your hair as well as the tool.'
So, with this in mind, how should we go about looking after our tools to ensure we get the most out of them?
'Always pack them in a cushioned heatproof case - brands such as ghd and Cloud 9 often provide these and do so for a reason as it helps your tools last longer', he says.
'Be sure to wrap the wire correctly without bends or creases to maintain the connection and avoid long-term electrical damage to the product - this is essential to the longevity of your product.'
