Our take on the GHD Platinum+ Professional Hair Straightener

The GHD Platinum+ is GHD's top-tier flat iron, built around predictive technology that adjusts plate heat to keep styling at a consistent 365°F. It heats in about 20 seconds, has a swivel cord, plate lock and a 30-minute auto shut-off, and comes with a heat-resistant glove. It suits people who style daily and want one temperature that works across hair types, though it gives up the variable heat settings and lower starting temperatures that cheaper rivals offer. Reviewers tend to praise smooth results and build quality while some question whether it is worth the premium over the Gold or Classic models.

Questions and answers

Is the GHD Platinum+ worth it over the GHD Gold?
The Platinum+ adds predictive heat control and a rounded body for curling, while the Gold uses dual-zone plates at a fixed temperature. If you only straighten and want to spend less, the Gold covers it; if you curl and want the most even heat, the Platinum+ is the stronger pick.
Can I change the temperature?
No. It runs at a single 365°F setting that adjusts itself through predictive technology. That suits most hair types but gives you no lower setting for fine or chemically treated hair.
How fast does it heat up?
GHD rates it at about 20 seconds to full heat, and owners generally confirm it is ready quickly. A light and tone indicate when it is up to temperature.
What is in the box?
The straightener, a heat-resistant glove and a plate guard for storage. The cord is about 106 inches with a swivel base.
Does it work on wet hair?
No. Like most flat irons, it should be used on dry hair; the plates seal in moisture and can damage damp hair.
Does it shut off automatically?
Yes, it powers down after 30 minutes of inactivity, which owners like as a safety backstop.

At eBay, for $154.99, 51% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
