The Beauty Book’s publisher, Amanda Basher, recently trialed the Limited Edition Platinum+ Styler.
“I have naturally curly hair and straighten it daily so a good styler (and heat protectant spray) is key to protect my hair as much as possible. I have been a loyal ghd customer since I bought by first styler 15 years ago and was most recently using the ghd Gold Styler.
As I straighten my hair so often I was excited to try the Platinum Styler and experience the Ultrazone™ technology first hand. The first thing I noticed while straightening my hair as normal was how easily the styler glided over each section of hair. In addition, I didn’t feel the need to go over each section multiple times to get it straight which meant I saved valuable time. During the day, my hair definitely did stay straighter for longer, was less frizzy and I did notice that it was shinier than normal. This styler is a game-changer and I am hooked!”
