Have a 'Good Hair Day' with the Sapphire Peacock ghd
Brand new for this season, ghd have launched their limited edition range, the Peacock Collection. Available in three gorgeous colours; Emerald Green, Amethyst Purple and Dazzling Sapphire, the Peacock ghd is a pimped Gold Classic Styler, transformed with striking coloured plates and accents and a co-ordinating satin roll bag and heat mat. The peacock feather embroidery on the roll bag is simply breathtaking!
I was beyond thrilled to receive a pair to review. The quality of the ghd is evident from the moment you see the box! The Dazzling Sapphire Hair Straighteners ooze style and elicited a gasp of delight from myself and my daughters who coveted them instantly!
The lush satin feather-design roll bag opens up to provide a handy heat resistant mat...no more scorching your dressing table. The straighteners fit inside the zip up compartment which protects them when not in use.
The blue theme continues across the styler with coloured plates, logo and power light. Every attention to detail has been met in this limited edition design.
The addition of a cap to keep the straighteners together is most useful. It prevents you from getting burned on an open cooling straightener (we've all done that one!)
Aesthetically, the ghd Peacock is simply stunning with its embellishments and design features. But how does its functionality compare?
The body is light and remains quite cool to touch. The cord is long which is very useful. They heat up really quickly, but there is only one heat setting. The cord is attached using a swivelling connection which prevents getting twisted up, a real stroke of genius! There is a sleep mode if the straightener is left unused for 30 minutes, which is a reassuring safety feature.
The ceramic plates glide through the hair effortlessly leaving a shiny, sleek finish. They can also be used to create a multitude of styles from curls to flicks to waves, aided by the rounded barrel. This is where my eldest daughter Megan comes in.

She is a dab hand at using ghd's and has curled her sister's hair to demonstrate the versatility of this product. She was very impressed with the features and how easy it was to use. The rounded barrel was perfect for wrapping sections of hair around to create curls.
