Absolutely without a doubt, everyone will reply GHD, and indeed they are the best.
I bought some off Ebay with the name SHE, apparently they are made at the same factory and are exactly the same but with a different name on. I did wonder if it was a con but as they were only £30 as opposed to the £120+ for GHD's I thought it was worth a try and they are really good!
If you don't mind spending the money, and want the name then GHD's are the best but these ones are identical and work just as well.
To protect against damage and help straightening process, try Schwartkopf in a clear bottle with hot pink trigger attachment. Its only £1.99 but is the best one I have tried (and I have tried all the designer type and expensive ones).
Hope this helps x

I have GHD's they are good. But I did have KODO's hair straightners and I think I actually preferred them. My hair is very very thick, so I need ceramic straightners that get very hot. If you have very fine hair, I would use the KODO's. Plus don't use them every day; make sure your hair is bone dry before you use them; and remember to use a good heat activated balm and condition your hair every time.
I use Indola 4+4 Botanics Straightening Balm; Loreals Professional Shine Serum; and Paul Mitchells Conditioning range. All these can be bought either online or in Sally's Hair Dressing Supplies.
Once in a while I also use a shampoo that removes product build up.
I straighten my hair twice a week and it is still in good condition.

T3. are. i used to be a trainee hairdresser and although people think GHDs are the best they arent any more they used to be but now so many people use them it makes everyone think they are the best. T3s are actually the best as they are made of tourmaline which as well as being great to straigten with as they get as hot as GHDS you also have the choice on what heat you want. so you wont fry your hair so much. they also contain a mineral called tourmaline in which adds a little of the nurtrients taken out of your hair back in. they also do wet 2 dry straightners which are amazing on long hair and T3s are so good i have even used then on afro hair and it has straightened it.

all flat irons damage your hair unfortunately. The Chi Flat Iron is the best . It gets extremely hot really fast and you don't have to keep running it over the same strand to smoothe it over and over. A product that would be great is a leavein cond by Aveda called Brilliant Damage Control

There's one by conair that works well. It's only 15 dollars or 20 dollars and it's white. It has steam in it. wait until it's super hot. There's really no need to spend 50 to 100 dollars on one. Plus they work best of freshly washed hair. The steam is very gentle.

they're only extra comfortable once you straighten and also you in basic terms prefer to bypass by your hair once to get suitable delicate straight away hair and they dont do as a lot damage as different more cost-effective straightners because the more cost-effective ones you would possibly want to bypass by continuously, with ghd you in basic terms prefer to bypass once :) goodluck

GHD's without a doubt. They are the best and straighten any type of hair.

I have horrible frizzy and curly hair. A week ago I boughr ghd straighterners. I wish I had bought them years ago. Could have saved myself a lot of bad hair days. They are fantastic.

and you like to flipyour hair out or curls once in a while,,,,then get the straightener that has soft rounded edges so that you can straighten and/or curl too!

GHD's.
You can spend less money but you will prob not find them as good and try another pair, so really best just investing the money and getting the GHD's.
I use AVON leave in conditioner when I strighten myhair and its good.
