Amazon Prime Day 2023: Shoppers snap up £28 hair straighteners with 18k five stars reviews

Amazon Prime Day 2023 is almost here, and the popular online retailer has already reduced some five star products on the lead up to it.

Thankfully for those looking to upgrade their hair tools collection, Amazon has slashed the price of another pair of hair straighteners that are said to 'rival GHD's'. Previously reviewed by BirminghamLive, The Remington Shine Therapy Advanced Ceramic Hair Straighteners have been reduced to £28 instead of £80, and have a whopping 18k five star reviews from happy shoppers.

The hair straighteners feature advanced ceramic coated plates infused with Moroccan Argan Oil with Vitamin E. They feature a digital temperature display with 9 settings of 150-230 degrees.

With a five year manufacturer guarantee, the floating plates even pressure on the hair with a fast heat of up to 15 seconds. The Remington hair straighteners have racked up a whopping 18 thousand glowing reviews from shoppers who are claiming to sell their GHD's for the bargain hair tool.

In the glowing reviews, one shopper said: "I bought these as a back up for my cordless ghd’s but can honestly say they are fab and my hair looks better using these for the first time than it has for a long time! It may be that these are paddle straighteners not thin ones but I’m so pleased with my purchase, which hasn’t broke the bank either! Defo recommend from my experience. Pluses to mention are - heat up really quickly, have temperature choices and oil makes hair silky!"

A second shopper said: "Amazing, I always had GHD's and they broke a 8 months after having them, I begrudge paying a few hundred again, my hair dresser was using these and I noticed they worked well with my hair as my hair can be very frizzy and wavy, I purchased a pair when they were £25.00 and was the best money I’ve spent can’t complain, work very well."

A third review read: "I am always sceptical that any straightener can compare to my trusty GHD's but these come very close for a fraction of the price. I wanted a good back up pair for emergencies and to take on holiday. I have short fine hair and poor quality straighteners are scratchy and I can feel damaging my hair. Not these. They are smooth on my hair , easy to hold. Adjustable temperature and auto shut off extra features with great benefits. Will be recommending to all my friends!"

A fourth shopper said: "My trusty GHDs broke but wasn't in a position to buy another pair so after looking at amazon reviews I opted for these. They probably take a fraction longer to warm up than my GHDs and there is no audible beep to let you know its got to temperature but a quick glance at the screen you know when it has. Once warmed up they are just as easy to use and in no time my hair was perfectly straight. In fact my hair stays straight for days afterwards no touch up required. The carry case they come in isn't the best and looks a bit cheap so that soon got put to the side. Overall if you are looking at some new straighteners I would definitely recommend these especially as they are a quarter of the price of GHDs."

Shoppers can purchase the £28 hair straighteners here.
