![]() Firstly, the two-piece hinge seen on the Gold model has been updated on the Platinum+ with a ‘wishbone’ hinge and a single curve. But on closer inspection, we spotted a few key differences. On first impressions, the Platinum+ and Gold look very similar with their curved, barrel designs and metallic grey plates. We love how these straighteners look and feel – sleek, stylish, and professional. There’s also a generous 2.7-meter swivel cord that allows you to reach hard-to-style sections (mainly the back) as well as your mirror from across the room. The straighteners are reasonably lightweight (weighing in at 1.1kg) and we found that when styling our fine strands, we didn’t get that dreaded arm ache. And as with most ghd stylers, there are no variable heat settings as all stylers reach the brand’s identified optimum styling temperature of 185 degrees. Both stylers feature a power button on the inside of the handle that illuminates when turned on. The smooth, rounded barrel shape of the Gold resembles that of the Platinum+ and, because of this, both tools can be used to create wavy hairstyles and bouncy curls as well as sleek styles. Note that they’re floating plates, meaning they’re not 100% attached to the styler which allows for some movement and flexibility. ![]() ![]() Newer models, including the ghd Gold and ghd Platinum+, have swapped them out for sparkly, metallic grey versions that look (and feel) sleeker. For the Gold, the plates measure 9cm long and 2.5cm wide and boast a straight edge. If like us, your first ghd straightener was the original styler, you’ll probably remember the classic yellow ceramic plates.
