Sometimes, you can’t beat an original, and, with 24 per cent off, ghd’s OG hair straighteners are now even more appealing. A saving as big as this makes a huge difference when it comes to shopping for pricier items, so, we welcome this deal with open arms. And, before you start wondering if the original is an older model, we’re here to remind you that it was actually given a high-tech upgrade last year.

In our review of the new and improved styler, our tester pointed out that, unlike the previous version, the plate barrel feels “far less bulky”. Our writer also liked the fact that the old on/off button has been replaced with the same round power button and comes complete with light and sound indicators.

The new and improved straightener features a combined sensor system, known as single-zone, which works to control the optimum styling temperature of 185C consistently across both plates. “Simple and effective, they create the same long-lasting and sleek results we’ve come to know and love from ghd”, our reviewer said.

If you’re looking for a tool that’s a bit more technologically advanced, consider the plaintum+ straighteners, which have also been reduced. The intelligent tool, which was chosen as the best buy in our review of the best ghd straighteners, adapts its temperature to each section of your hair and monitors the tresses 250 times per second.

Our tester praised its speedy heat-up time and dubbed it as “one of the best straighteners money can buy”. They added: “It heats up in an instant, leaves your hair with a glossy finish and delivers perfectly smooth styling, all while ensuring your locks aren’t left damaged.”

As the brand’s name and our reviewer can testify, these straighteners will help you have a good hair day, and the more purse-friendly price is great news for your bank account, too.
