So, it's between the Sapphire Pro or the S3500...
I've researched GHDs and don't think the newer models are worth it. I've researched Cloud 9s but they are very expensive where I live.
I've thin (after pregnancy) and scruffy looking just-past-shoulder length hair. Scruffy as I've a natural curl/flyaway thing going on and while very easy to blow dry, it doesn't hold and looks rubbish once I leave the house!
TIA!
