Chookiehen Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I'm soooooo jealous of all you GHD wielding people! I have straight hair - poker straight hair. So straight that I've had more than one perm fail in my time, and would LOVE to have a bit of curl, or even just a kink to my hair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadietoo Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi, just to add to the vote for GHD's. My DD has taken ours to Uni with her and I am using and old pair of cheaper ones which don't work anywhere near as well. Incidentally, our GHD's broke as soon as they were out of warranty , but we sent then off to GHD who repaired them free of charge, and returned them within the week they are as good as new now...how's that for service Cheers Sadie and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathybc Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I used to get called Crystal Tips at school so you can guess what my hair is like naturally - but wide GHDs solve it ! Expensive but worth it, I have so many others that just don't work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 I am a natural curly top too, but I love my curls & would never want the poker straight hair that my siblings have. I did straighten it once, & I looked like a hobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Mine was naturally straight as a die until I had Rosie, then it developed a wave. Typically I always wanted curly hair Your hair is beautiful Sarah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Sarah, I passed that link onto a friend who was after some straighteners, she reports that they cost her far less than buying locally, plus the free gifts....AND they arrived the next day and are brilliant. She says to pass on her thanks So good news if anyone is thinking of buying some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omletina Kyckling Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I am a natural curly top too, but I love my curls & would never want the poker straight hair that my siblings have. I did straighten it once, & I looked like a hobo I'm the same as you Sarah, a curly bonce. I have straighteners and have done it a few times, but hubby told me I looked like a witch I can't see the point for me in fighting nature, as on the few times I've done it, I've been paranoid about it getting damp - I went to a lot of trouble years ago to straighten it when I was going to a meeting - we had one in the morning and I looked very sleek (if I can look sleek) and then we got caught in a shower at lunchtime. By the time we got to the afternoon meeting, I looked like something out of the 70s (the bad bit of the 70s, that is), my hair was standing on end in a giant frizz....some of the people who'd been in the morning meeting were in the afternoon one and the looks on their faces when I walked in was a picture! I hadn't managed to get to a mirror so didn't know what the problem was! I've not straightened my hair since that day! Glad your daughter liked her GHDs though!

redhotchick Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 For anyone still looking, yes GHDs are great, but a cheaper option and highly recommended (by me!) Ceramic straighteners by Remington. They are about £15 on Amazon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
