I wanted to update this after I received my flat iron directly from GHD.
So, my GHD Gold Professional styler arrived and it was also not sealed. So that part maybe wasn't such a big deal. Not sure why GHD does not seal this product. The styler I was replacing was a GHD classic styler and when I bought that it was sealed with a sticker on both ends. So at first I though maybe I'd jumped to conclusions on the one I ordered from amazon. They looked about the same and I was even considering changing my review when I decided I should turn it on before I wrote this. Glad I did. The one I received from GHD lit up with the letters GHD on the switch. The one I received from amazon did not. Also it flashed twice and then after about 20 seconds chimed again (to say it was hot) and the light stayed lit. The amazon one did none of this. The hologram sticker was obviously not peeling and I did notice one other thing. The GHD that came direct came with a card saying to register the styler at ghdhair.com/register
The amazon one didn't have this either. So if you DO get one from amazon try to register it.
Did it hurt paying $225 for this instead of the amazon price? Absolutely but I'd do it again.1. I know my product is real. 2. I know my product is not a refurbish (which I think the amazon may have been) 3. Because it's real and new I get a 2 year warranty with GHD.
I buy a LOT of items on amazon that I'm happy with but I don't recommend buying this here.I'd give this product 5 stars but will not because it does NOT have
the ability to adjust the temperature to lower it. It's a consistent heat
but much too too hot for my fine hair. For the price of this, it should be able
to and I had to return it for a flat iron that has adjustable heat.
I wish I knew this before buying so I wanted to put my small warning
out there if you have fine hair like mine.
Otherwise, it's a great tool if you like high heat!
Buy ghd Gold Styler Iron, Black, 1" Now
I love this Styler! Where do I start? Heats up super fast, easy to use, not heavy, and works great on my fine-textured hair. I use it mostly to "bend" my hair as opposed to straightening it. A curling iron curls too much for me, so this is actually the perfect product. My daughter purchased the exact same Styler from Sephoria for alot more money. I was worried, because of the price difference ($225 vs $92), that my purchase might not authentic. But, it definitely is the real deal! I had no trouble registering my Styler with Ghd. And it is exactly like my daughter's! I would highly recommend anyone considering this purchase to go ahead, you'll never regret it.I was very skeptical ordering this flat iron due to counterfeit issues people have been having with them. However, there was a product registration sheet in the box & it was in fact authentic! Go for it, the price is wonderful for a GHD!After so many reviews about fake flat irons, I was worried, but bit the bullet and ordered one anyway. Mine came in the mail today and I was pleased that the codes all went in fine when I registered it online. Very pleased.
