With winter setting in across the Southern Hemisphere, ghd’s latest tool has us reminiscing on sun-soaked summer sojourns. Whether you’re jet-setting to sunnier skies this season or just in need of a dopamine boost, the new ghd wave is the tool to reach for.

Effortless beachy waves can be created in as little as three seconds, thanks to the waver’s triple barrel design. While we’ve seen many mermaid-esque tools grace our desks over the years, most share one common gripe: kinks. Thankfully, we can count on ghd’s styler to resolve this with smooth, curved edges and an innovative clamp that guarantees a seamless wave from root to tip, sans the dreaded creases.

Featuring three ergonomically redesigned 32mm barrels with a professional anodised coating, the ghd wave operates at an optimal temperature of 185 degrees. This ensures up to 30 percent more shine and reduces frizz by half.

“This highly sought-after style will now be even more accessible with an easy-to-use tool that embodies all the signature ghd features – enhanced shine, long-lasting results, and superior heat regulation for healthier hair,” says Dafydd Thomas, Global Director of Education. “If you’re looking for quick, on-trend textured results, ghd wave is the perfect tool for you.“

Additional features include a sleep mode that activates after 60 minutes of inactivity, a built-in safety stand, and a cool tip for added ease, making styling sessions as safe as they are stylish.

Oh, and don’t be deterred by its hefty appearance; early reviews highlight that it is “surprisingly lightweight.”

The new ghd wave, priced at RRP $310, is available at select salons, department stores, and ghdhair.com.
