Creating Waves with the ghd Curve Wand


Some find it easy to style their hair; some find it impossible - I am somewhere in between these. I tend to stick to the two hairstyles I know how to do, curly and down or I bung it up in a top knot and resemble a pineapple.

For as long as I can remember I have used my ghd straighteners to create my curls and hopefully I have pretty much nailed the technique. It's relatively easy to do with the straighteners but seeing as I had the opportunity to try the *ghd Curve wand; I thought I'd see if it measured up.

My verdict? ... Guys, it's SO much easier to use a wand in comparison to using straighteners to create beautiful waves and movement. When I use the straighteners the curls are very tight and bouncy but with this Curve wand; the curls are loose and wavey and the outcome is a lot more natural and tousled looking. 

I thought I'd put together a step by step guide showing you how easy it is to use the wand and how to create a full head of luscious wavey curls!

Step One

Spritz the hair with some heat protection spray. I used GHD's Heat Protect Spray. Some sprays are too sticky but this one felt nice and light and smelt really nice as well. The spray creates a barrier against the heat and after spraying it I just used my fingers to work the product through the hair.


Step Two

Separate a section of hair and clip the rest back so that you can easily see what you're working with. You can choose how much hair you want to curl but I recommend taking a section that is as wide as the barrel of the wand.


Step Three

Wrap the section of hair flat against the wand and hold the wand diagonally pointing it downwards.


Step Four

Hold the hair against the wand for 5-8 seconds depending on how intense you want the curl to be and how thick your hair is.


Step Five

Repeat this simple technique across the entire head of hair.


Step Six

Work your hands through the curls to loosen them and the curls will naturally separate and voila there you have it! Lovely loose curls!

  2. My life became devastated when my husband sent me packing, after 8 years that we have been together. I was lost and helpless after trying so many ways to make my husband take me back. One day at work, i was absent minded not knowing that my boss was calling me, so he sat and asked me what its was all about i told him and he smiled and said that it was not a problem. I never understand what he meant by it wasn't a problem getting my husband back, he said he used a spell to get his wife back when she left him for another man and now they are together till date and at first i was shocked hearing such thing from my boss. He gave me an email address of the great spell caster who helped him get his wife back, i never believed this would work but i had no choice that to get in contact with the spell caster which i did, and he requested for my information and that of my husband to enable him cast the spell and i sent him the details, but after two days, my mom called me that my husband came pleading that he wants me back, i never believed it because it was just like a dream and i had to rush down to my mothers place and to my greatest surprise, my husband was kneeling before me pleading for forgiveness that he wants me and the kid back home, then i gave Happy a call regarding sudden change of my husband and he made it clear to me that my husband will love me till the end of the world, that he will never leave my sight. Now me and my husband is back together again and has started doing pleasant things he hasn't done before, he makes me happy and do what he is suppose to do as a man without nagging.
