    GHD Precious GHD Precious Gift Set GHD Straighteners My old GHD Precious Gift Set broke and I couldn't afford a pair of GHD Precious 's at that time so on the recommendation of a friend I tried these which were on the shelf at Woolworths.At £30 they were a lot cheaper than GHD Precious's or other salon stylers. My hair is mid length and slightly wavy.Due to the texture it's not easy to straighten and I need the higher heat settings to get a successful result. At that time of purchase these GHD Precious Gift Set were some of the hottest in the price range, the majority of the alternatives were around the 180-200 degrees maximum temperature. At full temperature these make even bone dry hair steam! They straighten hair quickly but it does appear flat afterwards.I also found that I got kinks in my hair from the straight sides of the plates.I also found that my hair became a little flyaway afterwards,even when using serum. They are recommended for use on dry hair.So I am very satisfied with the GHD Straighteners.
