    A remmington from kmart- pretty good for the price.
    Ghd- awesome, awesome, awesome! But not good for fine hair as it gets to hot, iykwim...

    It's quite fine but think, and wavy, it used to be straight but hormones have wrecked my hair as well

    I don't think I'd use it that often maybe once or twice a week, but Panda would definitely be using it everyday. And for me to use it in the morning before work, it would have to be quick, lol.

    I brought a Babyliss mini one because I only have shortish hair but it has a really strong wave and once it gets to a certain length it flicks out all over the place and annoys me, so I got the Babyliss because I'd never had one before and wasn't keen on spending big $$ JIC I didn't like it. It's not too bad, but I need to go over my hair a few times to get it the way I want it but when I'm at my hairdressers' she uses a GHD and the difference is huge - the babyliss just doesn't do as good a job as the GHD. So I will persevere with it because there isn't anything wrong with it, but as soon as it dies I think I will get a GHD.

    I have a diva and its awesome!! Its what alot of salons use.

    Just a tip, you shouldnt really straighten your hair when its wet. Its very bad for it, hence why a hair dresser will blow dry completly before straightening it.
