Our verdict

A one-tool route from wet hair to straight hair for anyone who wants to skip the separate blow dry. It is heavier than a plain dryer and only straightens, so volume styles need another tool.

Overview

Someone who blow dries and then flat irons every morning gets both jobs in one tool here. Wet sections pass through a chamber where heated plates and an internal airflow dry and straighten together, and a no-air mode finishes dry hair.

Cutting a two-step routine into one pass is the reason to own it, and the plates run at a controlled styling temperature rather than full iron heat. It is a straightening tool only, and it weighs more than a typical handheld dryer.

Who it's for

People with straight-styled hair who currently dry and iron in separate steps save the most time. Curly hair worn natural, or anyone wanting body and bounce, is better served by a regular dryer with attachments.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Dries and straightens in one step
  • Shine Shot mode for touch-ups on dry hair
  • Floating plates with a smooth coating
  • Lower sound acoustic design
Cons
  • Heavy for a handheld hair tool
  • Straight styles only, no volume attachments
  • Energy savings claims differ within the listing
  • Voltage not listed

Performance notes

Results depend on feeding small sections slowly so air has time to move moisture out before the plates set the shape. Sensors hold the plates at a lower styling heat, which spares the hair but means thick sections need more passes than a hot iron would.

Frequently asked questions

How do you set up the ghd Duet Style before use?

It is a corded electric tool with a 2.7 m cord, so you plug it in and start on wet hair. The listing does not give voltage or plug details.

Can the ghd Duet Style be used on dry hair?

Yes, in Shine Shot mode only. That mode turns the air off and runs the plates at 365 F for a straightener-style finish.

Is the ghd Duet Style a regular blow dryer?

No. It dries hair by passing it between heated plates with airflow inside a chamber, so it straightens as it dries and does not take nozzles or a diffuser.

How much energy does the ghd Duet Style save?

The bullets claim up to 30 percent less energy and the description claims up to 45 percent, so the figure is not consistent.
