ghd, Dyson and Cloud Nine

ghd, Dyson and Cloud Nine each sell closely related models. The differences are usually in plate size, temperature settings and bundled accessories.

ghd straighteners use a fixed 185 °C setting on most current models. Cloud Nine models offer adjustable heat. Dyson's Airstrait is a different kind of tool: it straightens with airflow from wet hair rather than with hot plates.

Many limited editions differ only in colour and gift set. Before paying more, compare the stated plate width, temperature and shut-off time side by side.
