Granting glammer-than-glam bouncy curls and loose waves, the ghd soft curl tong is a hero for longer hair types. It features a large 32mm barrel with a ceramic coating to deliver smooth and shiny locks with plenty of volume, alongside a handy spring-activated clamp to secure the tips of your tresses for effortless styling. As with all of ghd’s curling tongs, this wonder worker adheres to the brand’s research-backed optimum temperature of 185ºC – cooler temperatures deliver poorer styling results while hotter ones can cause irreversible, unnecessary hair damage. This is regulated and maintained through clever ultra-zone technology, which recognises each section of hair and adapts the heat accordingly. Designed with safety in mind, there’s a cool tip to hold hair in place while you’re using it, a safety stand for resting on hard surfaces and – our personal favourite – an automatic sleep mode that turns the device off after 30 minutes – a peace of mind essential if ever there was one.
