Limited Edition Metallic ghd Collection
I've always been a huge fan of ghds and have had numerous pairs in my life since I was about 15.
Though they have never failed me and I have never needed to purchase a new pair through them being broken etc, I was always intrigued by the Limited Edition Straighteners and have consequently received them for many Birthdays and Christmases through the years.
The various colours and styles are always so eye catching and a lot more fun than the original Black ones, which were in fact the last ones I had in replacement for a Pink Breast Cancer Awareness pair that my mum "borrowed" one day.
Limited Edition styles are released into the ghd Collections quite regularly, though the latest on the market are the glamorous Metallic ghds. They come as a part of a beautiful gift set, which features the classic styler in either Shimmering Silver, Sahara Gold or Rich Ruby* along with a quilted case that also works as a very useful heat resistant mat. Before this, I was forever burning surfaces or bed covers which is extremely dangerous, so this is a very handy addition!
I've never actually tried any other brand of hair straightener, because quite frankly I don't need to. I'm really passionate about ghd as a brand and haven't ever felt the need to use anything else. The quality of the straightening irons are excellent and they work on my hair incredibly well, leaving my locks beautifully straight with a professional finish and shine with minimal time and effort. I know there is often quite a worry about using heat on coloured hairstyles, but I have never experienced any problems and my hair is always left looking shiny and feeling soft, although I would highly recommend using a heat protectant spray as always.
The appealing features are also what make ghd second to none. The high temperature Ceramic plates are very smooth and so run through your hair with such ease and no snagging what so ever. They are also contoured in shape, which makes it a lot easier to create curls and waves. The swivel cord adds to making this function easier. I can be a little clumsy at times but having a 360° function in the cord is a huge help.
Something that I was quite late into finding out about ghd, though when I did find out I was very pleasantly pleased, is the universal voltage function and the fact that hidden underneath the standard plug is in fact a European plug which makes life a lot easier for me when going on trips with work.
The overall experience with ghd is really lovely and if you're interested in this sparkly gift set, it is available here and costs £135.
Are you a fan of ghd like I am? What pair do you have?

ghd air Boutique
Today, ghd have revealed that on the 6th September at Vogues Fashion's Night Out they will be kick starting the tour of the ghd air Boutique; the world's first socially powered beauty experience that features hair makeovers with the ghd Style Team, model castings and a travelling airstream trailer full of absolutely everything ghd.
Following the opening on Fashion's Night Out, they will be hitting the road and visiting locations in and around the UK as directed by ghd fans via their social media channels. As well as having the opportunity to choose the next location of the ghd air Boutique on these channels, live Q&A sessions will also be taking part with stylists for you to ask any hair related questions you may have.
In with the theme of Fashion's Night Out, ghd are also working with Select Model Management on a search to find a new model to sign with Select and model for ghd. A casting will be taking place at the opening of the air Boutique on the 6th with a shortlist of five models that will be chosen by Select from images uploaded onto Facebook. With everything being powered by the fans, they will also have the power to decide on the winner too.
I will definitely be making a visit to see the air Boutique and if you want to too, you can book an appointment via Twitter or Facebook for the ultimate blow dry.
For more information regarding how to enter the ghd Select Model competition, to book a blow dry in the boutique or to decide where it travels to after Fashion's Night Out visit them on Facebook or Twitter and for more information surrounding the air Boutique and other events at Vogues Fashion's Night Out visit www.vogue.co.uk/fashions-night-out.
