- In depth review of ghd Duet Style: bit.ly/3Katnxf
Ghd is known for luxury high-end hair tools from flat irons, curling irons available in different sizes, hair dryers and so much more. The newest hair tool launch is ghd Duet Style 2-in-1 Hot Air Styler. Ghd Duet Air Styler dries and styles straight, wavy, curly or coily hair types with fine, medium, or thick hair texture with no heat damage.
Remington Wet 2 Style is an oldie hair styling tool that also dries and styles hair. The flat iron uses a unique venting system using hot plates to remove moisture from hair when its damp, taking the hair to dry and smooth all in one.
At the end of the day, ghd uses hot air to dry damp hair, while Remington uses hot plates to remove moisture from damp hair to achieve smooth, sleek results. I personally think ghd Duet Style did a better and faster job than Remington Wet 2 Style flat iron. Wet2Style took twice as long to dry the hair, resulting with kinks towards the bottom of my hair and not as straight as ghd duet style.
Actually from my point of view as an chemical engineer - if your wet hair contains only water (no leave-in), then by heating it with straightener it cannot achieve temperature higher than boiling water temperature - 100 celsius or 212 fahrenheit. Only after all water evaporates from hair, the temperature in that lock of hair can raise above 212 F. So by using that straightener on your wet hair you are not frying it, even though the sound is unpleasant. The damage is done probably after too many passes caused by unevenly drying and bad quality plates.
As a consumer I prefer drying my hair with a hair dryer and then styling it with a hair straightener because that process is much more effective.
But I had to say that poor performance of remington straightener is not due to using it on wet hair, but because of other factors like design of the device (maybe too small holes) or just not good enough quality plates.
The Remington wet2dry brings back memories. I used it at least 15 years ago when getting ready to go to work before the crack of dawn. The pin straight hair was the look at the time, so I would spray water and dry/straighten to refresh the style. I've had color treated hair for a long time, but using this every day didn't damage my hair. I used it for a few years, until I cut my hair to a short bob and didn't want my hair that flat anymore. I bet I still have it in the bottom of a drawer. I will totally use it now that I have long hair again!
She seems way too concerned about the Remingtons temperature when you can't even controll it on the GHD. Plus, on Remingtons side she skipped the ends a few times but not with the GHD and then she goes and smooth everything in the GHD side (because tbh both sides looked very similar) and only after that she compares the sides and says that the ends on Remingtons side are way more frizzy... Of course! You just skipped them! . Like... She have been doing hair tools videos for a while. You would think that she can actually flat iron the hair while comb it first all the way to the ends. And also... You could buy 13 Remingtons with the price of the GHD... With that price difference you would expect GHD to be 13x better haha
Ghd control the heat, so that at max 185 degrees Celsius the hair once washed goes back to its original state.
Ghd Duet :
- Air heat (middle) 150 degrees Celsius
- Air heat (side vents) 90 degrees Celsius
- Plates on side 120 degrees Celsius
Shine Shot
- Side Plates only - 185 degrees Celsius (Platinum+ Tech)
It did feel a little, biased. It kind of seems like maybe since she already has the pricier ones, she will just opt for them. Which does not make for a great comparison video.
I remember when she'd say things like "the results are better with the pricier tool, but you can achieve the same with the cheaper tool and not break the bank"
Totally agree, it seems she is deliberately leaving the ends. Looks exactly the same both sides😮
Umm to me the OG wins... because they all kill your hair no matter what !
I mean for the extreme price difference I was thinking it would be more noticeable differences. To be honest the Remington didn’t do terrible but I don’t like straightening my hair while it’s wet. But 400 is absolutely insane for a hair tool especially when you can get the whole shark set for cheaper.
U can’t compare both products, if I wanted frizzy hair and volumen I would use a dryer, or a fancy dryer for less frizz but if u want super sleek no volumen hair the GHD is the way to go, on y it’s not for everybody.
@@aeriz85 there are so many affordable products. My main takeaway is that for that price point in comparison with the other one it should be an astounding difference and there wasn’t one. With the shark set it comes with a sleek straightening brush that can provide the same effect and it comes with other attachments. That whole set is cheaper than this one product that didn’t even do a good enough job to see a noticeable difference from the cheaper one.
I mean to each their own and course people can purchase whatever products they like, just for me personally it’s way over priced for minimal results.
@@chasitym.4949 That sleek straightener brush it’s not for ppl like me with very thin hair for example, maybe for someone who want to smooth a bit their style but if u really looking for straight sleek hair that ghd is the best thing I have ever tried, that is overpriced? totally but there is not another one who can give u same levels of results without frying ur hair or making u to look like u got strike by a lighting in the process.
Obviously if u are looking for versatility it’s not ur device and that’s ok, not everything works for everybody.
I thought that the difference was extremely noticeable, there was literally no comparison to the competence of the GHD over the Remington. I nearly switched off to find a better tutorial on the GHD it was taking so long to do one section that didn’t even get more than 5% completed once she switched to the other side.
Omg I LOVED the Wet 2 Straight in the mid-late 2000s
Remington wet to straight killing hair since 2002. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is this a good thing or a bad thing? “Killing” can be used for both.
I think the reason it needs to be hotter for damp hair is because the dampness of the hair will naturally pull the temperature down.
The GHD styler looks awesome but $399 WOW!🙄
You're wrong about the GHD Duet - the plates are warmed to 120 degrees centigrade when using the hot air mode. Then they heat to 185 degrees centigrade using the shine shot mode. I know because I have one and love it (UK).
Came here to say the same thing.
Recently bought the the and I cant explain how good it is, I have very thick coarse curly hair and I’ve never been able to straighten it myself but it leaves my hair sleek and super soft for days
I don’t regularly flat iron my hair but I’ve used the Remington wet2straight consistently for over ten years and it’s never damaged my very fine hair. I don’t have patience to blow dry so it’s the only way I’ll straighten my hair.
Maybe you can feel the difference but I can’t see the difference
It’s hard to compare these two items because they’re using different technology. I would like to see you compare two items using the same technology one name, brand and one not.
Can’t wait to see the GHD duet vs Dyson Airstraight
I have had multiple Remmington products over the years and they do have a very bad smell like a water hose that is being melted. Most of the time the smell goes away after a few uses but I have had a couple of straighteners that didn’t ever stop smelling and I had to just get rid of them.
It's not worth 400 imo. It should out perform the 30 dollar one. I can get the same look with my airwrap and it will take 5 min to do my whole head if I want it sleeked out with a flat iron.
I completely agree!
That’s right! I dry my hair with Dyson hairdryer in like 4 min , and if I want to use my Airwrap to style it it’s like 10 min … I don’t know but I think this company run out of ideas. Or if I want a poker straight hair I use my Dyson corrale which takes me max 10 min … (chest length ) I used to like my old ghd but that broke, bought another one, similar issue and I give up
Without comparing it to other device, in this video, it does perform better than Remington. Her ghd side is much faster and sleeker. I would only question the voltage or electric consumption of the ghd.
I have the air wrap and the ghd. I have long straight hair. I 100% prefer the GHD duet, it’s one of those things you have to try to understand how different it is. It takes me a good 20 min to blow dry my hair with the air wrap, and it’s usually fluffy afterwards ( nothing wrong with that, I just prefer straight hair). The GHD gets it’s done in 10 min and it looks like I straightened it (before actually using the hair straightener).
I’m actually getting rid of the air wrap, I don’t use it enough to justify keeping it.
Just another perspective from someone who has both. If you like straight/sleek hair after the shower, I love the GHD 👍🏻.
How u even compare them, when one is designed for giving u a super sleek hair withouth volumen hair with a fancy hair dryer that can curl??
The remington one sounds like the first ghd tbh, all hairdressers back then used to just iron the wet hair with them and didnt seem to damage it... i did it many times, but not anymore
Both sides look the same to me......imo the price difference doesn't make the slight if any look difference result worth it . I have the GHD platinum+ hair straighteners so over rated I also have a GHD hair dryer again I think this brand is over rated.
Your hair does look lovely ..both sides 👍😀
Not really, didn’t u see the end + the amount of time and effort that it takes the Remington size…. Time is money and no worth it.
I used to have the Remington Wet to Dry, but I only used it after blow drying my hair first. I was never brave enough to use it on wet hair.
I would love to see the GHD one being used to give a bend to the hair or a curl! ❤
The GHD is able to do waves and big curls. I think she doesn’t know this.
I have owned Wet2straight flat irons for at least 10 years and only use it after blow drying, never on wet hair. The only reason I find it more effective than the other flat irons I have tried, is because the wet2straight removes any extra humidity from my hair after blow drying and it makes my blowout last longer. I live in a very, very! humid tropical place so I don't think that the GHD results would last on me.
My first ever flat iron was a Remington that had the switchable plates like crimp waves and straight. I have super curly hair I tried to use it one time it was horrible never again lol. This was in like 2002
I bought and used the Ghds today amazing, especially on my long, thick hair. 😍
Why did you take longer slower passes with the expensive one?
I have the old blue one from 15 years ago. I love it but I don't think it gets as hot as before so that's why I was looking at the new one.
I would be very interested in seeing you compare the GHD Duet Style and the Dyson airwrap. Technology is different but I am really wondering which one is better :)
Dyson ❤
Hearing that sizzle was crazy 😮.
How have you managed to get your hair to grow so much from your older videos, honestly mine won't go past a certain length and I'm using products that's good for hair. Help would be much appreciated milana xx
the GHD styler sounded like a rocket or airplane was about to take off when you turned it on lol
I think I’d rather do the Revlon styler then run a straighter after - $400 I think it’s too steep
My beloved steampod. Don’t forget her.
WoW what a difference, it was extremely noticeable, there was literally no comparison to the competence of the GHD over the Remington. I nearly switched off to find a better tutorial on the GHD it was taking so long to do one section that didn’t even get more than 5% completed once she switched to the other side.
I have relatively straight hair anyway, so I think I will rough dry with my GHD Helios hairdryer first, then instead of using my GHD straightening irons I will go over with this, as I think it will be kinder to my hair without hot plates. Ordering my GHD hot air styler now 😃
GHD IS THE BEST, i love the duet style and my hair doesnt have any damage ❤ expensive but soooo goooood
The GHD doesn't have a heat control, so you could actually be straightening at 470degrees, the Remington was used at the lowest temperature.
For all that work and time for one section of hair, you can just stick with your Revlon one step and have a much quicker and better result.
After 4 months I really thought the GHD Duet Style would have gone cheaper than still $400 lol I would honestly only be using it when travelling, it saves on room in the suitcase (not all hotels or places has hairdryer) and time - would keep drying then straightening my hair at home. But $400 for travel use only... meh.
No difference in the outcome between the two..
I bought the remignton i like it. And it does the job super well. I do it with the least temperature and in one pass is dry and my hair is more frizzier, wavy than yours.
Ooh, now they have a Dyson Airstrait. I wonder how that compares to the ghd.
I stop using a straight iron for some years and last year about the Remington wet2dry and I’m don’t love it. It’s not too bad it gets the job done but my hair doesn’t feel smooth. My first iron was a Sedu and then a Chi both were great and lasted 3-4 years each , then I didn’t want to spend any more money do I used Hot Tools which pulled and was not smoothed but got the job done for $20 and lasted 5 years. I then used the Instyler which I liked but hated the sound because I do my hair early in the morning. Then I use Anika comb which is good but gets gunk on it and too hard to keep clean.
I need a travel friendly 1.5-2 inch flat iron and suggestions??
@milabu can you pour in your views about dyson airstrait and ghd ??
The ghd sounds like you are being lifted into space 😂
Yes we get it. You don't like the Revlon one. Goodness gracious... It's THIRTY DOLLARS VS $400... give me a break with this review
Yeah, I this video wasn't helpful for those of us that can't afford $400 hair tools.
*Remington
@@jasminbas2435you feel better?
I notice that attitude a lot when she reviews extremely high end brands vs something that sells at the Walmart for example. We get it.
I still have the wet2 Remington. No noise. I have thick hair. Wavy underneath. It could do a better job in my opinion.
I was cringing when you were using the Remington. Please never use it again! The other one should be $150 maybe! The prices are crazy today on things.
Thisbsounds like a ghd paid advertisement😂
WOAH WHEN DID YOUR HAIR GET SO LONG
Whoa, as Kathleen Lights says, Das expensive! This was interesting…good video! Thank you!
I’m getting nervous for you and your hair with how many times you’re having to go over your left side with the Remington. Not good!
They both seem substandard, looks faster and better to just blow dry and then use a bog standard hair straightener.
Milana runs to purchase insurance for her hair (loss: business interruption)!🤷♀️🤦♀️😂😆
The results look basically the same imo
Lol you were brave using the Remington. Flat ironing wet hair is bad because that sizzling and steaming is water evaporating from the hair. It boils and evaporates leaving holes and breaks throughout the hair strand. Like literally under a microscope or electron microscope the hair would be full of holes! This is of course really bad and doing it repeatedly especially without sufficient hair care could be detrimental. That sizzling they said is “okay” is definitely not ok!
Both sides look the same to me
Do vs with dyson
Can you making a Lange le clip curling iron review 😂?
Yay thank you for this!
GHD is expensive but is better, looks better too
Remington is a MAJOR pass for me!!! 😬
Who has time to repeatedly flat iron their hair from wet to dry ..
bad bad memories from the wet2straight
The only reason i have mine is because i have thick curly hair that soaks up water like a sponge, and even if i dry it im always afriad its still a little wet thats why i use wet2strait flat iron, plus i know it always works. i have found my tymo ring actually goes faster when i use it but it doesnt always get my roots. i do need high heat with my hair but i dont go over 400.
I tried some Remington straighteners. They were AWFUL. Put me right off the brand.
Hangi marka daha iyi anlamadım
I'll stick to my ghd hairdryer and remington shine therapy straighteners....ghd straighteners fried my hair
My Remington wet2style was my go to and it fucked me up
This is painful to watch.. the memories… 😭
Basically, I wouldn't purchase either one!!
I admire your dedication but if you think a tool that you are testing is damaging your hair please stop testing it! I cringed through that as I was worried about your hair!
Yuppy furst
I would NEVER have the patience for this‼️😖
I see no difference.
Oh no don't use that Remington on your real hair!!!!
I used that in highschool and it completely MELTED MY HAIR
No no no no,never heated plates on damp or wet hair! Always use a blow dryer for that purpose, much better for.the hair and much faster
The GHD Duet Styler wins in my opinion. I don't want to hear a noise of any sort like this when there's heat involved, this sure can't be good for the health of your hair no matter what the claims are.
Ovviamente, una piastra ha aria e una no. Ovvio li gonfi di più
Both are rubbish. For the cost of $400 you could just buy amazing hair straighteners and hairdryer that would style your hair perfectly. I am sick of these gimmicks!
That takes so much time to dry and style the hair. I don't want to spend an hour to dry it. My arms would hurt so much.
If it doesn't feel right, then why use the Remington? But anything for views i guess!!....
The whole concept of wet to dry is a bad idea- causing the moisture inside your hair to suddenly expand and turn to steam can blow holes through your cuticle layer. With that kind of damage, your hair loses its ability to keep any moisture inside it, as well as causing the hair to look dull and broken. Light won’t be reflected because of the damaged cuticle layer, so there’s no shine or luster! Baaaaaaad !
