EVERYTHING about a GHD straightener ruffles my feathers from its quick heating to the automatic sleep mode. I love that the ceramic covered aluminium plates heat evenly and glide smoothly over my hair, giving me beautiful defrizzed hair in minutes. The rounded barrel means I can use my straightener to create curls, waves and flicks when straight is just not enough. But the Birds of paradise collection is not only functional but also pretty with the flowing ombré colouration.
