Finally I think I've found a hairdryer to suit me. Myself and my boyfriend were previously using one I won in a competition and while it is a super duper top of the range one, it's incredibly heavy, not good when it takes a while for my hair to dry completely. It also had that weird 'new' smell, which we thought would pass, but it never did and my boyfriend wouldn't stop going on and on and on about it. Now I can finally shut him up because we have the very lovely ghd Air Arctic Gold hairdryer to use...not that he has that much hair to dry anyway!
I actually received the ghd Arctic Gold Drying Giftset, which makes a gorgeous gift at anytime of year and comes with not only the very lightweight 2,100w hairdryer, but also with a styling nozzle and handy sectioning clips. The set is currently on sale so you could buy it now ready for next Christmas or give yourself a post-Christmas treat.
The hairdryer itself is really gorgeous with an almost rose gold finish and what's most important to me is that it's particularly kind on the hair. It's designed to be delicate on the hair too as we all know too much heat can damage your hair. Helpfully, the hairdryer has a removable air filter, which allows a high pressue air flow, therefore reducing drying time. Like any other hairdryer it also has power and temperature controls. I like to set these pretty low so as not to blast my hair with seriously hot air and you would think using a lower temperature and power setting would mean a longer drying time but that isn't the case at all. It dries in no time and thanks to ionic technology, my flyaway hair is much more sleek looking and soft once it's dry.
The hairdryer is compatible with the ghd Air Diffuser too, which you can use to create curls and waves, perfect for the party season. Or, like me, you can opt for something sleek and sophisticated. The giftset is currently £79, down from £99. I'd definitely recommend picking it up if you're in the market for a new hairdryer.
Have you tried a ghd hairdryer before? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

I can not live without my ghds but surprisingly I have never tried their hairdryers. I will have to give this a go as I really love the sound of the drying process not being as long, as I do really worry about the damage it does to my already damaged hair

Let me know what one you get!
DeleteHaving just purchased a new PC I can no longer justify buying myself some GHD's which was my plan after Christmas. The hairdryer has always intrigued me and I often see sets together which I think work out as a good deal, I'll look into one in the next few months.
ReplyDeleteLovely review Cherry.
Glad you enjoyed it Amy! Ooh a new computer sounds great :)
DeleteGHD is definitely one of the best IMO!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great product and this hairdryer is also so beautiful too. I know it shouldn't really matter what a device looks like, but for some reason it kind of does, haha! At least, it is more fun using a pretty hair dryer. I own a GHD straightener and bought it over 6 years ago and it is still going strong. Their products are awesome.

You're so right, it definitely helps that it's so pretty looking. I love the gold/rose gold hardware.
DeleteI have the mini straighteners that are from the same 'set' as this, and I love them! Currently I'm using a Lee Stafford Colour Therapy PRO-MINERAL dryer and I get on so well with it, no dryer has left my hair so shiny and non-frizzy before xx
ReplyDeleteI don't actually have any ghd straighteners, I'd love to try some!
DeleteI'd love to own this, it sounds incredible!

It's lovely!
DeleteI've never really been that bothered by the hairdryer I use as I've only ever really used it to blast my hair dry quickly before straightening if I was in a hurry. I've now ditched straightening though and much prefer to blow dry my hair and although there's nothing wrong with the one I currently have I am finding myself looking at new ones and seeing what's out there x
