they're dearer than i thought they'd be though! | Yeah, I do have some straightening serum that I use *if* I blow dry my hair, but most of the time I don't have time to  Usually I shower before I go to bed, then try and tame my hair in the morning. Most the time my hair is just tied up because I don't have time to do much with it, so if I have some straighteners that work well & will only take a few minutes, then yay! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks for your help ladies, I just ordered the babyliss pro 230 straighteners from amazon, £30!  There was 50+ reviews on amazon too, no bad ones, and lots of people saying they are as good or better than GHD. |
