Platinum+ Hair Straightener, Ceramic Flat Iron, Professional Hair Styler

Sin duda es la mejor plancha que he comprado. Mi cabello es ondulado y con otras planchas, después de medio día ya estaba ondulado otra vez. Les comparto una foto después de un día largo para que miren que sigue intacto, tal vez solo tenga un poco de friz en la parte del nacimiento pero son mis cabellitos nuevos. Llegó en muy buen estado.

I’ve used quite a few flat irons over the years, and the ghd Platinum+ definitely stands out. It feels like a professional tool right from the start heats up quickly and glides through the hair very smoothly without pulling or snagging.What I noticed right away is how even the heat feels. It straightens my hair in fewer passes compared to cheaper irons I’ve used, which I really appreciate because it feels less damaging overall. My hair looks smoother, shinier, and stays styled longer.I also like that it’s easy to use simple on/off, no complicated settings, and it just works consistently every time.Pros:Smooth glide with no pullingHeats up fast and maintains even temperatureLeaves hair shiny and frizz-freeFeels like a true salon-quality toolMinor downside: It is on the pricier side, but in my opinion, the performance and results justify the cost.Overall, this is one of those tools where you can really see and feel the difference. If you style your hair regularly, it’s definitely worth the upgrade.

Last month I travelled to the UK for a wedding - I brought my North American T3 straightener and unfortunately the AC converter / adapter I used, didn't work and blew my straightener! I needed to purchase a new one - I went to a hair salon and purchased the ghd Classic Original - not cheap! But wow! I was so impressed with this iron! Came back home and still needed a straightener I can use with a North American plug. Looked into the ghd line and splurged! I purchased the ghd Platinum+ ... I've never looked back! I've been using a straightener for over 30 years - I've owned a few! This is truly the best straightener I've ever owned! My hair is shiny, silky smooth! Yes, even better than the ghd Classic Original! The iron heats up incredibly fast. I would highly recommend this straightening iron - yes, it is expensive - but it is so worth it!

I’ve been using a very basic ghd flat iron for more than 20 years, so I already know the brand well and have always respected it. My old one was still good, but after that long it was obviously time for an upgrade. I debated whether this model was really worth the price difference — and after using it, my answer is absolutely yes.For context, I’m 52, post-menopausal, with fine hair that can be a little frizzy and slightly unruly. My hair is cut into a chin-length bob, and because I wear it sleek and polished, a flat iron is not an occasional tool for me — it’s part of my regular routine. So when I say I noticed a difference right away, I really mean it.The very first thing that stood out was the glide. This moves through the hair much more smoothly than my old iron. There’s no tugging, no catching, and no dragging. It feels far more refined, and that alone makes styling feel easier and gentler on the hair.The second thing I noticed was that I needed fewer passes. In most areas, one pass was enough. That was a big deal for me. With my older iron, I often had to go over sections more than once to get the finish I wanted. With this one, the hair looked sleek much faster. The only places where I did a couple of extra passes were my cowlicks and the more stubborn areas around my front sections — but even there, it still performed better and faster than what I had been using.That combination of smoother glide and fewer passes is exactly what makes this feel worth the upgrade. It’s not just about convenience. It also makes me feel better about what I’m doing to my hair over time. Less friction and less repeated heat is always a good thing, especially as hair changes with age.I also noticed that my finished hair looked shinier, sleeker, and more polished. The overall result was smoother and more refined, with less of that slightly dry or overworked look that can happen when you have to keep going over the same sections. My hair just looked better.Another thing I appreciate is how well-balanced the tool feels in the hand. It feels substantial and high quality without being awkward to use and it's definitely a perfect weight, not heavy at all. The overall build feels premium, which is what I would expect at this price point. It heats up reliably, performs consistently, has a long, user friendly cord and feels like a serious styling tool rather than just a basic flat iron.As far as value goes, this is obviously not inexpensive. But for me, this is the kind of purchase where the difference is clear almost immediately. If you use a flat iron regularly and care about smoothness, efficiency, and how your hair looks afterward, the upgrade makes sense. I questioned the price before buying it, and now that I’ve used it, I don’t question it anymore.I’m genuinely so happy with this purchase. I already liked ghd, but this made me realize just how much better a more advanced version can be when you actually put it in your hands and use it on your own hair.If you’ve been hanging onto an older flat iron and wondering whether moving up to this level is worth it, I can say from experience: yes, it is. If I could give it more stars, I would.

I have fine frizzy hair with a natural wave. Always had trouble straightening it and making it look nice. for reference I've used Chi and Babyliss flat irons since I was a teenager.I decided to buy the GHD platinum plus on a whim after my Babyliss physically broke. This was after 13 years, so the Babyliss is not a bad flat iron by any means!But HOLY mother of God the GHD.The GHD took my hair to a level I didn't think possible at home.My hair is usually frizzy and now it's not only straight but also SILKY and soft. It moves differently. Its shiny. It has that exact same fresh salon feeling and the best part is it takes about a fraction of the time that the other flatirons did.My mind is blown. Its expensive but hair is something we deal with every day. I couldn't be happier...Itll bring out the best in your hair.
