I tried curling my hair with GHD's and it doesn't look that good... Some curls do come out good but some don't - I'm pretty sure I am not using the right technique. What is the beast technique to curl your hair with Ghd's?

Hi Shannon!
First of all you must choose the right Ghd product which depends on your hair type.
I wash and condition my hair with the right Ghd product, next I apply the ghd thermal protection spray which is again most suited to your hair type. Next step is appling ghd texture lotion. Apply it throughout the hair - from roots to tips.
Then use blow dryer but do bring blow dryer to close to your hair – try to finger-dry your hair.
Next step is sectioning your hair roughly 3" from the nape of your neck and then lightly mist ghd creation spray onto the section.
And then the ghd original ceramic styling iron - place the iron vertical to your head, which is as
as close to your scalp as possible. Rotate the iron 180 degrees away from your head and pull towards you in one smooth movement. The slower you pull, the tighter the curl will be and the faster you'll pull it, the looser the curl will be.
You can repeat this step two times, but wait until the hair cools down first and then try again.
Finish the procedure with ghd fixation spray – this way you'll give a firm hold.
If you want a bit looser curls, just use your fingers (not comb) to separate them...
I hope this description helps! Mia
