So with all of that said, I want to now explain why the GHD Duet Style isn't going to become my daily tool. Don't get me wrong—I'll still use it for days when I want to keep my hair straight, but it isn't going to replace my hair dryer and curling tongs when I want to opt for something wavy or curled. And here's why. Instead of exposing my hair to the high heat of a hairdryer, followed by a straightener temperature of 185°C, the max it got to was 150°C (without the shine shot). My hair felt soft, healthy, and not-at-all frazzled after use. Transform wet hair into beautifully smooth styles with no damage* using the first 2-in-1 hot air styler from ghd. Combining the best of ghd's heat styling and drying technologies together in one tool to simplify your styling routine and deliver unbelievably soft hair you just can't stop touching. Air-fusion technology combines state of the art internal aerodynamics with 4 smart heated styling plates to efficiently dry and style hair simultaneously. Each low temperature plate is equipped with infinity sensors to predict your hair's needs and maintain an optimal low temperature from root to tip.

ghd claims that their unique 'Air-fusion' tech (sounds science-y, right?) allows for ultra concentrated airflow to effectively dry and straighten hair at a lower temperature. Thus, avoiding stripping the hair of its natural moisture and minimising damage. Unique Shine Shot™ mode transforms into a ghd styler operating at 185ºC with no air, for instant frizz-free results and 2x more shine, for use on dry hair only. Once your hair is totally dry, you can also use the Duet Style as a normal straightener by putting it into Shine Shot mode. This turns off the motor and increases the heat in the styling plates to GHD's standard 185°C to get that next-level shine and sleekness. Who is the GHD Duet Style best for?After trying the product out for myself, I'd definitely say it's best for those with curly or wavy hair who straighten it every day. It's also the perfect lazy-girl tool for those with straighter styles who like to use a straightener to enhance shine and make their style more polished.

It's also worth noting that I am lazy as hell when it comes to my hair styling. My straighteners have been gathering dust in a drawer and have gone untouched for months—I'm very much a blow-dry-my-hair-upside-down-and-go sort of girl. So the fact that I found the GHD Duet Style easy and fuss-free speaks volumes. If you’re serious about straightening and smoothing, but also serious about the health of your hair, I’d say the ghd Duet Style is worth the investment. FAQ Does the GHD Duet really not damage hair?

My hair didn't smell like it been set on fire (those loyal to their hair straighteners will know exactly what I'm talking about) and I could even smell faint notes of the shampoo I'd used. Further proof that this really might not be detrimentally damaging to hair health. Considering most hair straighteners range from between 190°C-210°C, and this device is set at 150°C (with the plates themselves coming in at 120°C), I was surprised to find I didn't have to re-style my hair at any point in between my next wash day. It really did live up to its frizz-free claims.
