Genuine ghd approved online retailers and how to recognise them

Buying ghd straighteners online these days is a complete gamble, with nearly 60% of the websites currently advertising low cost ghd selling fake ghd stylers. So how exactly are you to know where to buy your ghd from.

GHD have a nice little system were approved ghd online retaielrs are given a seal to display on their website.

This seal can then be clicked, taking you to ghdhair.com and verifying if it is a genuine site or not.

The domain of the website will appear in the bottom of the box, in this case it's http://www.ghd-uk.co.uk/ below that will be the date and time, and your ip address ( i've deleted my ip)

Now if you are on a HTTPS website the domain of the site might not appear, this is a bug with the ghd script but all the rest of the information will be shown.


Again simply clicking this image will take you to ghdhair.com and you will see a pop up with confirmation of the sites validity. (see the image left, again we used ghd uk for this demonstration). Now always check the address bar displays the ghdhair.com address and the page hasnt been faked up. But if you see site approved in nice green text, click the continue shopping and you can buy ghd in confidence.


We have a list of ghd approved retailers for you below. All of which provide genuine ghd straighteners and stylers and provide various special offers and great deals on ghd stylers

getting your ghd straighteners repaired

When your ghd break it can seem to be a complete disaster, but don't dispare, they can be repaired. Now theres two methods to choose from for repairs, the first is to send them to ghd the alternative is to have them repaired by an independant company.

Now if you have a IV styler, and its uinder two years old, its still under warranty. That means you pop over to the official ghd repair website and fill in the form, you'll then print off a address label ( or write it out if you dont have a printer). You then wrap your styler with proof of purchase and post it off to ghd. The ghd repairs address is
UK: ghd, PO BOX 397, Keighley, BD20 0WX
International: ghd, Unit 12, Ryefield Way, Silsden, West Yorkshire, BD20 0EF

It will take about 14 days for your repair to be done (sometimes faster). But then you'll have a nice shiney working set of ghd again. and lovely straight hair.

If your ghd hair straighteners are more than 2 years old you might still be able to get ghd to repair (or replace them) follow the advise above and chance your luck. I've dealt with people who had ghd's over 4 years old fixed and replaced by ghd.

The seond option is to take them to a local repair company, searching google will produce a swathe of repair companies claiming to be authorised repair companies. But as with anything its pot luck when you choose a repair company. Do a little research and try twitter or facebook to get a an idea or recommendation for good repair company.

ghd thermal protector spray

protect you hair while straightening


Let's talk about hair care. I think its common knowledge at this point that the environment, coloring, and heat styling can all damage hair. But it's this last portion that I want to focus on, damage from heat curling.



Unquestionably, employing heat to your hair everyday will eventually harm your locks, leaving them frizzy and injured. However, it's effortless to protect your hair while treating.



One of the latest hair trends is the heat protection sprays, with many flat iron companies, like ghd manufacturing their own heat protection sprays. The greater number of these sprays consist of a combination of proteins or herbs meant to guardhair from heat treating damage while improving hair's shine and overall health.



GHD Thermal Protector Spray. The GHD line is createdfor all hair types, offering heat protection for dry/coarse, normal to fine or weak/damaged hair.
