Why is a GHD hair straightener the best?

 

What makes the ghd hair straightener the best is its simplicity. It only has one temperature setting. Ghd did research and came up with the best temperature to straighten hair and made the ghd Glide. The ghd Glide only has one temperature setting, making it the simplest and easiest hair straightener to use. When you turn on the brush, it automatically heats to 185 degrees Celsius or 365 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the perfect temperature required for shaping the hair, causing no damage.

Did you know according to Karlines Salon, "The hair-melting factor is a major risk of using the straightening brush because it reaches such a high temperature. Different hair types require different temperatures (the keratin in hair strands begins to melt at 325 degrees). Beyond 325 degrees, the chances of completely melting the hair strands increases."

When it comes to straightening you hair it's really all about the heat and how long you leave the heat on your hair. Too little heat and not long enough your style falls apart, or could not last a long. too much heat and you end up burning your hair. This is why I like the GLIDE from GHD because it eliminates the heat setting by doing it automatically for you. Here is another quote from Karlines Salon in Palm Beach, FL, "Everything is about the heat when it comes to electric hair straighteners. That is why you want to ensure that your brush can deliver the amount of heat your hair requires. Maximum heat levels can vary, but they usually go from 350F to 450F. If you have thick and strong hair that is hard to control, you may want to go with the units that offer up to 450F of heat. On the other hand, if your hair is of average length and strength, a lower maximum heat limit should do the trick."  

My first impression of picking up the Glide ghd hair straightener is it has some weight. But it's a good weight. According to Meesh our in-house Product Analyst, "The GLIDE GHD feels high quality, along with an excellent fit and finish. It does not have a lightweight plastic feel like other hair straightener brushes." In addition, it only has one button, the power button. When pressing the power button for the first time, there is a lighted ring on the button that flashes. When the brush reaches the optimum temperature, the button will stop flashing. This signals that the brush is now ready to use.

The ghd Glide has ninety-nine short bristles along with thirty-six longer bristles. But wait, ghd when a step further and added eighty-eight even longer bristles to make it even easier for you to create tension. When straightening your hair, it is imperative that you create tension because it's the tension along with the heat that allows you to straighten your hair. The extra bristles and the simplicity separate the ghd Glide from all other hair straightener brushes.

Glide hot brush ghd claims

The ghd Glide hot brush claims to transform your hair in seconds and will do it effortlessly and quickly. It uses ceramic technology and an ionizer to do the work. Both technologies combine to give you the best of both worlds and eliminate frizz. One of the secrets of the ghd Glide hot brush is the high-density bristles. And in my opinion, this is critical because it allows for cross-sections of hair to be held, with tension. The tension you get from the bristles allows the ghd Glide hot brush to style your hair. It’s hard to style hair using a brush with little hair tension. Hair falls through quickly and, there is no time for the heat and ions work on eliminating frizz and smoothing hair.

ghd Glide hot brush benefits

The long bristles of the ghd Glide also have the benefit of penetrating deeper into the hair. Short bristles only scratch the surface and have not as much penetration. And the brush having only short bristles might be OK if you have short hair. Penetration is not that much of a concern for short-haired folks. When using a styling brush, penetration is crucial, and the only way to get penetration is with longer bristles. Those who have longer hair know this well. How many times have you picked up a hairbrush and bristles were short, and maybe even really soft? It is a classic case of a brush with little or no penetration. The ghd Glide hot brush has longer bristles on the edges and shorter ones on the inside of the head. It allows the Glide to penetrate thicker, longer hair, and then guide the hair strands through the brush head. This way, the Glide's head does not have contact with hair, so the heat and ions can straighten hair.

According to Stacey our in-house hair research analyst, "But the extraordinary feature of the Glide bush, in my opinion, is its simplicity. You pick it up, turn in on and start using the Glide. There is not a temperature setting to worry with. There are no settings you have to pay special attention to and adjust, so you don’t burn your hair." Operational it’s is very simple and, it works. There is no over thinking on how to use the ghd Glide or taking time to decide how to set various options. Because there are none! When you turn it on, it automatically heats up to 365 degrees Fahrenheit. It is the sweet spot as far as temperature goes. Not too hot and not too cold. It’s just hot enough to smooth hair but not burn your hair. The temperature setting is designed to make sure you have healthier looking hair. Temperature is vital when styling your hair. Not hot enough and, your style will fall out quickly. Sometimes in a matter of hours. Temperature also depends on how thick your hair is. Thicker hair will need more heat to conform to the style.

How to clean your GHD Glide brush

1. Unplug the ghd Glide from the power supply.
2. Always allow the Glide hot brush to cool before attempting to clean.
3. Never immerse the Glide in water.
4. Remove all hair from in between the bristles after every usage. Wipe dean any build-up of styling products with a damp cloth or soft brush but do not scrub. Do this for both the bristles and heater plate.
5. Do not use an abrasive cleaning fluid to clean your ghd Glide.




Glide hot brush pitfalls to consider





All that said, the Glide is not perfect and does have some pitfalls. If you have simplicity, you also lose some important features that some folks may need. For example, the Glide heats up to 365 degrees Fahrenheit and, you need more heat, too bad. If you have thick hair, it will take longer to style your hair because thick hair needs more heat. And you are probably not going to get that flat, svelte look you are after without spending a little more time. A flat iron may be best if you fall into this category.

Besides, the Glide is an oval head design and is not the most desirable for short hair. So if you have hair that is about three inches long and not any longer using the ghd Glide hot brush is going to be a bit challenging for you. You might be better off looking at a small round hot brush. I know Conair makes one called the “Conair Instant Heat Styling Brush” that works well with short hair. The reason why I mention it is that I like it due to its stunning features like having an insane 25 heat settings. And it ready to use in 60 seconds due to its fast heat up time. The brush comes in two sizes, a 1.25 inch and a ¾ inch, so make sure you get the right size for your length of hair.



Before using the ghd hot brush protect your hair





Before you use the Glide hot brush, give your hair a spritz of heat protectant spray. Clip and section off hair. This way, those folks with long hair are only working with one hair section at a time. And the hair you are not working on is not in the way. Start with the ghd Glide underneath your hair and lift upward as you brush your hair to the ends. If you like a beveled, soft shape, then turn the Glide on its side as you brush towards the ends. When finished, you can end by adding a spritz of hair shine. When you finish, the ceramic and ionic technology will make a believer out of you. Yes, it works.



To reduce the risk of burns while using the ghd Glide:




1. It's a good idea not to touch the Glide's heater plates.
2. Also I would not let it touch other heat sensitive materials.
3. It's a great idea when you are not styling to lay the ghd Glide on a flat heat-resistant surface such as a heat mat.
4. When you are finished styling always switch off the Glide and unplug it from the power supply.
5. Always wait for the Glide to cool before storing.
6. Also after styling the plates remain hot so for safe cooling cover the plates with the heat proof plate guard.
7. When the Glide hot brush has cooled, fold the power cord In the same way as it was delivered. Do not wind it around your hand or the body of the Glide as this can lead to early failure of the power cord. I know you will be tempted to wind the cord around the handle like I am so use to doing but you will have to remember not to do it.
    

Glide hot brush safety features




One of the safety features I like about the Glide if it has been left on and has not been used for 60 minutes, it will automatically turn off. The brush will play a sleep mode tune, the plate will start to cool and the light will slowly pulse till the plate reaches a safe temperature. 

To restart while it is In sleep mode, simply turn it on by pressing and holding down the ON/OFF button for more than 1 second. Please make note although the Glide is turned off, it Is still connected to the power and should be unplugged from the power source, electricity, at the earliest opportunity. In the unlikely event of a control system error, for safety the heaters will turn off. The Glide will emit bleeps and the light will flash red every five seconds. If this occurs you can try to un-plug and re-plug at the power supply and re-start. And as always contact ghd Customer Service for any advice and the latest information.



How to store your ghd Glide brush






1. Always allow the Glide ghd hot brush to cool down before storing away. Never store a brush while its still hot.
   
2. When the Glide has cooled down, fold the power cord in the same way as it came packaged. Do not wrap the supply cord around the Glide's handle.



ghd brush conclusion






The results are great for the majority of folks. Using the Glide for you guys will be perfect. And the best thing about the ghd Glide is its simplicity. It, in my opinion, is worth having. It’s going to be hard to beat a high-quality simple to use a hot hairbrush. And at the end of the day, your hair is going to be healthier due to it is not pressed between two pieces of hot ceramic plates. You will experience less breakage, split-ends, and no hot spots on your hair. Your ears will thank you after purchasing the Glide. Your ears will not miss being burned every once in a while. The main thing to remember is not to overdo it because too much of almost anything can be dreadful.
