How we checked
Read on 2026-10-15 on ghd's US product page: $365.00 (was $429.00), an ionic dryer with a 118,000 rpm motor, four heat settings, four speeds, a cool shot button and the Halo styling concentrator in the box. Frends Beauty's page, read the same day, confirms $429.00, 1,650 W and the same settings; no page gives the weight, so it is left blank, and the date is from Wella Company, ghd's parent.
