Hair Straighteners
I'm new and this is my first question, hope it appears in the right section and apologies if it hasn't.
My GHD straighteners have stopped working. I have thick hair with a strong curl and the straighteners have done a good job. However Before I order another GHD which would set me back £99 pounds.
I was wondering if anybody could recommend a cheaper make of straightener which would do the job just as well.
Thanks.

The fuse that's prob gone is the thermal fuse, located inside the unit (not the plug fuse). Have a look at the following page and select which model of GHD you've got, it contains lots of tips, etc for testing and fault finding: http:// www. ghd- repair. co. uk/ common_ faults. html

GHD will fix your straighteners (for a reasonable cost) even outside of the warranty period. It may be worth sending them off to see if they can be mended before opting for new ones (or different brand).

There are GHD repair services for sale on Ebay.
Do a search for "GHD repair service".
My missus has used one - it costs around £15.
Usually when they stop working, it's an internal fuse that needs replacing. It's quite tricky to do if you don't know what you're doing (that's why I didn't try and repair my missus' GHD's).
The one that my msus has used twice (2 different GHD's) is the Ebay seller "age9000" so I can def vouch for them :)

Thanks for the link Gizmonster, will check it out.
Thanks for the welcome boxtops.
Tilly2, GHD are a brilliant make of hair straighteners, especially for people with hair like mine, but the downside is they are very costly.
BTW, nice to meet you all, from what I've seen so far this looks like a nice friendly site.

I like curly hair Pastafreak and I wouldn't straighten it if it had lovely gentle waves or ringlets, which look beautiful.
But sadly if left in its natural state it looks very messy and bushy and there is so much of it and I only have a small face, I get dwarfed by it. LOL, I don't want to frighten the locals! :)

I don’t know if these irons are cheaper, but they might be just as good, if not better. You can compare the different models here: http:// besthai rflatir ons.com . I would check different features, quality, and if there is a warranty or guarantee before investing in another one.
