I would buy her the ghd’s otherwise she’ll only be disappointed probably go and buy them herself anyway, and then she won’t use the ones you bought.

You get what you pay for afterall, and GHDs are the BEST hair straighteners you can buy, its not all about the brand, or name, its that they work- the heat is distributed evenly along the irons, if it gets too cold in a room they won’t blow up the next time you use them due to condensation forming under the plates. I for one have no problem spending my own hard earned money on expensive things (including GHDs) for myself (before work last week I bought myself a lovely Gucci waist-bag) but can see why you may be a bit peeved. Tell her you’ll go halves with her, then see whether she still wants them- or is happier to spend your money.

I would not spend that as mine cost £25 and they are great. GHD is a ‘designer’ brand and mainly bought for the name.

However, if you love her and want to make her really happy then spend the money

If you do not want to spend £120 then either split the money with her or buy her something completely different. Don’t just buy a cheaper set of straighteners! That is a big no no

I bought GHD’s when they were only £99 and I thought that was expensive, but they are well worth it!!! No other brand compares to them.

My mum bought the babyliss ones similar but they are rubbish.

Buy her the GHD’s, she’ll love you for ever!

I can see where you are coming from. Personally i think GHD’s are fantastic and yes, they are expensive but worth it. Tell her you had planned to take her to Paris for the weekend, and buy her a seat of heated rollers.. She will love that look loose curls are so in now..

The weekend in Paris idea is romantic and sweet and alot of girls would love that but I think if what she really wants, and therefore has been hinting for, are GHDs and you can afford it then you should buy it because it’ll make her happy BUT I agree that £120 is ‘alot’ for a pair of straighteners My cousin has them and they’re good but I have a Babyliss one which I rarely use but it can rival the GHDs in performance and they were £60 retail at the time I got them. I don’t think you can get good straighteners for £30 though..?

Just a blatant rip off,just think if you buy them then you are making a stinking rich person even richer company’s like that are just thieves and make loads of money from fools,they probably get them made in China for about a fiver anyway.

GHDs are the best hair straightners around

I have spent probably double that on cheaper ones that do not even come close to the performance of my ghds

Dont be so mean it is her birthday and you are lucky she has given you a hint

You could be even more nicer and buy the pink ones as money gets donated to cancer research

If you do not buy them she will make your life a misery and go out and buy herself a pair
