Hair Straighteners

[Lulu]

Ok, so they range from $30 to $300 and I ain't spending $300 on a 16 yo's hair applicances.

I do like to get good things that will last the distance and be kinder to her hair since DD uses it everyday.

I don't wanna go too cheap, but I think theres a point where you are paying for the hype (GHD for example).

Any ideas or recommendations??

I love the remington ones they have always been good and you can use a low heat cost me aroubd $70

"Hi lift" is a great low end version of the GHD. And it also has temperature control (don't know if the ghd does now but it didn't used to). I've used both and can't tell the difference - friend in hair dressing also said they did salon trials and no real difference. Is about $100.

Whats the IONIC thing they crap on about?

Um its supposed to have less charge of electricity or something - so less static/frizz. But if you get one with a ceramic plate this is good too as it heats evenly and is less static than metal. Much like cooking with a ceramic pan.

I have a hi lift and it is great.
I just dont have the patience to straighten everyday.
I got mine from HHWH for $99 on special and it came with some defrizz serum and a bag full of HH goodies.

I've tried so many over the past few years and sorry, but you really can't go passed GHD's I know they are pricey but you do get what you pay for. Also if she's using them everyday they will be alot better fot her hair.

I think I would have spent way more than the GHDs cost on all the othre straightners i've had and none of them came close to the GHDs. They are incredible!

I absolutely love my GHD`s, I got my first pair in 2006 but they broke a year later so last year I got another pair and they were ?120 each but sooooooooooo worth it
