The Pink edition of the ghd Chronos is the brand's flagship straightener in a limited Dusted Pink finish with a 'with love' heart design and a matching heat-resistant bag. ghd states that a donation goes to Breast Cancer Now from every pink product sold. It suits someone who wants the Chronos's newest heat technology and likes a gift that supports a cause. Among ghd's straighteners, it represents the top of the standard-width range.

Our take
Motion-responsive heat
ghd's HD motion-responsive technology is described as twice as responsive as before, adapting to every movement for fast, personalised styling. The Chronos continuously adjusts its power to keep the plates at 185°C, and ghd claims one-stroke, high-definition results that last up to 24 hours, three times faster, with more breakage protection.
A sensor light lets you know when the styler is ready to use, which this listing mentions specifically.
The Pink edition extras
The matching heat-resistant bag is useful for storage and travel. ghd says it has raised money for breast cancer charities for 23 years, and the Pink Collection continues that. Functionally, the styler is the same Chronos as the standard colours.
What this listing does not say
Sleep mode timing is not stated here, although the standard Chronos listing gives 10 minutes. Cable length, voltage and plate width are also missing. Amazon's listed 950 g covers packaging and the bag, so it is not the tool's own weight. As with all ghd plate models, there is no temperature adjustment.
Pink Chronos against other ghd models
The ghd Chronos Max Pink edition offers the same heating on the widest Chronos plates for long, thick or curly hair. The ghd Platinum+ uses ultra-zone predictive heat with a rounder barrel. The ghd Gold set is the entry point with dual-zone sensors, a paddle brush and a bag.
Who might choose differently
If the recipient has very long or thick hair, the wide plate version will save more time. Those who prefer adjustable heat for fine hair will not find it anywhere in ghd's plate range.
For everyone else, the Pink edition simply adds presentation and a charitable donation to the same Chronos performance, which makes it an easy present to choose.
Verdict
The Chronos Pink edition is a strong choice for someone who wants ghd's newest standard-width straightener, a matching bag and a charity link. For long, thick hair, the ghd Chronos Max Pink edition is the better fit, and the ghd Gold set is the gentler step into the ghd range.
