- Is the GHD Original good for thick hair?
- It can work, but the fixed 365°F setting is on the gentle side. Thick, coarse or curly hair often needs several passes or a hotter variable-temperature iron.
- Does it have temperature settings?
- No. It runs at one fixed temperature of 365°F, which GHD says suits most hair types.
- How fast does it heat up?
- About 30 seconds, so it is ready shortly after you switch it on.
- Does it turn itself off?
- Yes, it shuts off automatically after 30 minutes of inactivity.
- Can I use it abroad?
- It is not dual voltage, so you would need a voltage converter in countries with different mains voltage.
- How does it compare with the GHD Gold?
- The Gold adds dual-zone heat sensors and a sleeker design. The Original keeps the same simple one-temperature approach at a lower position in the range.
