Allowing you to make sure your hair is ready to style with your wands, tongs, and straighteners. Travel size hairdryers are perfect for popping into your suitcase for creating those beach waves after the pool.
Technique with GHD
Your hair when it is wet, has soaked up to 3 times its volume in water, making the strands stretchy and breakable. So, it is important to dry your hair thoroughly. Towel dry, but do not rub your hair, squeeze it in the towel. Then using a medium to high heat, dry your hair until it feels warm throughout. This is the point at which your hair is dry. Now it is ready to style. You can then finish off with a cool shot to set your finished style in place.
Wands
GHD wands come in a couple of guises, the Creative Curl has a 28cm-23cm tapered barrel and the Classic Curl with a 38mm – 26mm oval shaped barrel. Both have a heating temperature of 185°C and ceramic tri-zone technology. This means your curls will last through the day. The Creative Curl is more suited to a wide range of curls and waves.
