With the launch of the ghd Gold Series, customers currently have the option of buying from two complete ranges of ghd hair straighteners: the IV Styler range or the Gold Series range.
With there being quite a major price difference (current prices for IV stylers are below £85 and the Gold Series is, at the time of writing, closer to the £110 mark), which range to chose from may pose quite the dilemma.The new Gold Series marks the latest evolution in ghd hair straighteners and there is no doubt that it offers some advantages over the IV range.
It features a sleeker design and has hot plates which are smoother, contoured and come with a high gloss finish. Accordingly, the new ghd Gold Series hair straighteners glide through your hair easily to enable you to attain stunning results. With it’s improved outer body, the ghd Gold Range stays cooler to touch for a longer period. The improved shape allows for better handling for all types of styling due to it being lighter to handle. The Protective Plate Guard is an entirely new addition, which allows you to safely cover hot plates when you are finished straightening your hair.
Thus the main differences between the ghd Gold Series and the ghd IV range are:
- Smoother plates
- Cooler, lighter body
- Sleek design
- Protective plate guard
As we stated above, this is an evolutionary not revolutionary upgrade. Thus it also shares many of the award-winning features of the IV range, including:
- Top of the Range Ceramic Heaters enable the styler to heat up quickly and stay hot throughout styling
- Rounded barrel: easily create curls, waves, flicks and the perfect straight.
- Sleep mode: heaters automatically switch off if not used for 30 minutes.
- Universal voltage: enabling you to use your ghds all around the world.

Despite the enhancements found on the ghd Gold Series Hair Straighteners, the ghd IV styler range is still a fanatic option to chose from. Indeed, the highly competitive prices currently on offer means that if you are willing to forgo the very latest bells and whistles, then you can grab yourself a real ghd bargain.
However, if you have your heart set on the latest and greatest hair straightener, then you already know that your only option is to buy from the new ghd Gold Series Range. The new range features three fantastic models that are each direct replacements for the corresponding ghd IV Styler model:
- ghd Gold Classic Styler (replaces ghd IV Styler)
- ghd Gold Max Styler (replaces ghd IV Salon Styler)
- ghd Gold Mini Styler (replaces ghd IV Mini Styler)
