Question GHD - worth it? but so expensive! girls help needed!!

http://www.ghdhair.com/uk/ghd-iv-purple-styler

Im thinking of getting this for the gf for crimbo, but is it worth it? I know they have a good reputation but, that much money! lol

is there anywhere you can get them cheeper? anyone got some that fell of a truck?

Annoyingly the purple one is more, and purple is like her fave colour, so if im going to do it i might as well do it properly? right?

help

hi mate, be careful if you buy them online such as ebay, i got my gf these last xmas, (was the hot pink ones i think they called?) and they were fake, i got my money back though and then bought a normal dark set - FROM A SHOP (as the pink ones had sold out), she loves them. she had tried lots of different ones in the past / borrowed friends and that to see what they were like and the GHD's are defo, in her opinion, the best on the market and well worth the money.

HTH

Saw them in some hairdressers in the Friary in Guildford today- not sure how much they were tho.

Be very careful when buying online.

(I use Tresemme ones which i find work fine on my hair, but if your girl is a GHD addict, nothing else will do)

yep, from a quick look on ebay, they are far too cheep to be real. Plus easier to get repair etc if bought from a shop. But they are so dear

GHDs or new rubber

Well, she has never had her own pair and has mentioned on more than one occasion that when she used her friends it was amazing. I also just came in to a wopping sum of £180 for doing a clinical trail, so i might have to give into the love lol

Yes definitely get one and if purple is her favourite colour then get that one. Got mine from UK when I was in Canada they cost £70 online that was in 2004 and they are still going strong
