I have Cloud Nine, replaced after my GHDs broke

I remembered reading they were invented by a guy involved in the original development of GHD- love them! They also have adjustable heat temperature. I got mine from Amazon
Agree!

I replaced my GHDs with Cloud Nines, best thing I’ve ever done!

I bought mine directly from Cloud Nine and got a free 3 year warranty

I use the loreal steampods. My hair has never felt so healthy. I thought I would never be converted from ghds, until the hairdressers used the steampods on my hair.
Oooh I’ll look into those!

I think cloud nine may be the winners!

I bought cloud nine a few months ago and they’re the best I’ve owned by far. I’ve had ghds, and various other brands but none of them seem to work as well as these 😃

Another vote for cloud 9 I’ve had mine 3 years and they’re just as good as when I bought them

I had a pair if the original GHDs bought at a hair show in Birmingham nearly 20 years ago, they were amazing and made for hairdressers - sister bought mine as I am not a hairdresser. I don’t think the new ones are as good as these, but they did get really hot

And another one on the cloud nine bandwagon, replaced by 7 year old GHDs earlier in the year. I was dubious before but they’re just brilliant

Loreal Steampod is the best by a long shot. Soooo much better for your hair. None of the others come close.

Do you find them easy to use? the instructions for creating waves look really complicated! Also, what water do you put in them?

Cloud 9 - had ghds for years but when they broke I tried cloud 9 and absolutely love them, they’re much smoother than ghds

I have the older version and its really easy to staighten, waves do take a bit more practise but once you get the hang of it its fine!

My friend has the newer version (water well in the straightener rather than seperate!) And its easier to use.

I just buy bottled water, but have used tap water and its fine

I’ve had 3 pairs in total, got my first ones back in 2001! I’d always get them - they last years, work a treat and I’ve never had any issues with them.

Have heard so many people rave about the steam pods. So expensive though at £200 😭
