Guys, listen in.
ghd has just released a brand new straightener and aptly named it after the Greek god of time.
Please give a warm welcome to the GHD Chronos Ultra-Fast Hd Hair Straightener In White styling your hair three times faster with less damage.I don’t know about you, but I’m intrigued.
A bit of a back story on my hair, I was bright red for three years which took two rounds of bleach to get rid of so one of my goals this year was to look more polished and put together.
The easiest way to do that? Styling your hair...
This usually means more damage, which is why I’m so excited to really put the ghd Chronos to the test.
I’ve always been a huge fan of ghd; the ghd Original Styler was the GOAT throughout my teen years, and the ghd Creative Curl was my go-to girl throughout my Makeup Artistry years.
This new era of my life? The same sleek styling results but with minimal damage so I'm taking the ghd Chronos for a test drive!
Keep scrolling for all the details and my full ghd Chronos review.

My ghd Chronos Styler Review.

I’m not going to lie, I was quite sceptical when it was first mentioned.
Straighteners are pretty straightforward and new tech doesn’t usually impress me.
That was until I felt the ghd Chronos Styler glide through my hair, a similar sensation to cutting butter.
Oh-so smooth and ever-so satisfying.
ghd were not joking when they said one-stroke high-definition results.
I’ve tried other stylers with ceramic plates before and they did leave my hair decently shiny, however the ultra-gloss coating on this one made all the difference.
You can feel it as you're styling and you can definitely see it in the results.
The styler itself feels much smaller and lighter than the Platinum+ and a touch lighter than the ghd original, it's much more round in shape making it a breeze to curl hair.
Nothing will prepare you for the shine it leaves behind. It was as if I ran a rich oil through my hair and let it soak in.
I did pair it with the GHD Bodyguard - Heat Protect Spray 120mL for coloured hair beforehand, which is known to help with a shiner finish.
When using the ghd Chronos you can really see and feel the thought and detail put into this little lightweight tool.
I was genuinely shocked by the results and loved that it was easy to use even when curling.

Final Verdict.

As someone who has used many, many stylers - I am truly impressed with the ghd Chronos.
Every little detail from the ceramic plates, ultra gloss coating and even the ergonomic design, makes the ghd Chronos so effortless to use.
The days of playing tug of war with your styler are over.
For those with medium to thick hair, you’ll finally have something to actually style your hair in one stroke. Fine hair types will have a blast with this too.
ghd has never failed when it comes to innovation, the ghd Chronos Styler does not disappoint.
