I straighten my hair everyday and until now, I have used hair straighteners that are around the $150 mark but I find I am having to replace them every two years because they stop heating up as much, the coating wears of the plates and they stop being as great as they were in the first six months I had them.

So I am assuming GHD's last longer ... how long have you had yours? Have often do you use it? Have you had any issues with it? Anything else I should know?
