And please don't tell me that GHDs are the only option, I can't afford £120.

GHS

SHE

Also what is the best hair product to use with them?

My second choice would be She but to be honest I would do without until I could afford GHd's. My daughter bought the She one's from e-bay and they were very mediocre. We treated her to Ghd's for her birthday 2 years ago and there is no comparison.

Having said that, she has got very thick curly hair which is very difficult to manage.

If your hair is easier to manage then the She ones might do you fine.

Thanks, did you feel that the SHE ones were similar though?

By chocchild on Fri 16-May-08 19:49:25

I thought the She ones were quite good until we got the Ghd's.

By chocchild on Fri 16-May-08 19:49:55

The Ghd's get the job done quicker too.

GHD's got some for my birthday and are fanatastic

By Spagblog on Sat 17-May-08 08:42:48

Ahhh, but I can't afford GHDs.

I really want someone to say "buy *** they are so much better than GHDs and half the price" - well a girl can dream eh?

Oh, Spagblog!!! If your hair is easy to manage then I'm sure that the She one's will be fine. If you have difficult, very culy, frizzy, thick hair then anything but Ghd's will be a waste of money.

Message

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,

, type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,

, type [grin] or :o
For a wink,

, type [wink]
For a shocked face,

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
