GHD curling is a professional heat-styling service that creates defined curls or soft waves with a smooth, polished finish. It is ideal when you want your hair to look styled, glossy, and camera-ready for an occasion or simply to lift your everyday look.

More information

What GHD curling delivers

GHD curling is designed to give you a finished style that holds and moves naturally. Your appointment typically includes:

  • Curls or waves tailored to the look you want, from loose and textured to more defined.
  • A smoother finish with reduced frizz and flyaways.
  • Added shape and volume through the mid-lengths and ends.
  • Styling products chosen to support hold, shine, and softness.
  • A finish that can be brushed out for softer movement or left more structured.

When GHD curling is the right choice

This service suits you if you want reliable results without doing the styling yourself. It is especially useful for:

  • Parties, birthdays, and nights out.
  • Weddings and formal events (as a guest or for pre-event styling).
  • Photoshoots, work events, and presentations.
  • Refreshing your look when your hair feels flat or lacks shape.

What to expect during your appointment

Your stylist will talk through the result you want and how you normally wear your hair. Hair is prepped for heat styling, then sectioned and curled with ghd tools to create consistent shape and direction. The look is finished with light dressing and the right level of hold, so it lasts while still feeling touchable.

How to help your curls last

To protect the style, avoid heavy brushing and use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb if you want to loosen the shape. Keep hair dry, and consider pinning sections up if you want extra longevity. If you are wearing a coat or scarf, try not to rub the hair at the nape as this can reduce hold.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will GHD curls last?
Most people can expect the style to last through the day or evening, depending on hair type and conditions. Your stylist will tailor product choice and curl size to improve longevity.
Can I choose between loose waves and tighter curls?
Yes. You can request anything from relaxed waves to more defined curls, and the finish can be brushed out for a softer look. Bringing a couple of reference photos helps.
Do I need to arrive with clean, dry hair?
It is best to arrive with clean, fully dry hair, as curls hold better on hair that is not damp. If you have product build-up or very oily roots, the style may drop more quickly.
Is GHD curling suitable for short hair?
It can work well on short styles, depending on the length and cut shape. Very short lengths may achieve more texture and bend than a full curl.
Can I book GHD curling alongside another appointment?
Yes, it is often booked after a cut or colour as the finishing style. If you are combining services, mention your plans so the final look suits your occasion.
