Yep, there is such a thing as touch-control technology in the hair-straightening world!

Our Beauty and Fashion Writer, Gemma Lavers has had the Touch Iron straighteners for 13 years and only recently decided to upgrade them to the latest edition. Over her decade-plus time as a dedicated Cloud Nine user the straighteners have never failed, and Gemma points out they didn't decline in performance despite their age. She recommends them for all hair types gushing, 'Honestly, I recommend these straighteners to anyone and everyone - thick hair, thin hair, straight hair, curly hair - they're actually the best.'

'I first bought these Cloud Nine straighteners almost thirteen years ago; when I was in year seven, Adele released 'Rolling In The Deep' and the same year Kim Kardashian had a 72-day marriage - that's how long ago this was. I still have this exact pair of straighteners, and they still work just as great as they did when I first got them. It's worth mentioning I have recently upgraded them to a newer version of the same model (The Original Iron) and they have all the features I know and love. The variable temperature control, mineral-infused plates and they automatically switch off after 30 minutes (a life-saver you didn't know you needed).'

Grazia's Beauty Writer, Sameeha Shaikh tried and tested the new ghd Chronos and said, 'I was recently invited to the launch of the tool in the heart of Soho, London at the ghd London Studio, where I was able to put the Chronos through its paces. Having my hair styled by a ghd pro quickly proved the potential of the product as she took my hair from unkept and lifeless to glossy and full bodied with the help of perfectly formed bouncy waves. And they sure did last, well into the next day in fact.' Looking to find out more? Discover our full ghd Chronos review here.
