It's official, hair straightening brushes are having a moment right now. Just a few months ago we saw the Dyson AirWrap go viral. Following shortly after, ghd hit us with their game-changing heated Glide brush, which revolutionised our morning routines before promptly selling out.
So, do you want the good news, or the really good news first? Not only is the ghd Glide now back in stock, but you can currently save 15% in the epic Harvey Nichols Black Friday sale, taking the price from £139 down to a very tempting £118.15.

So, our go-to for hair straighteners have decided to try their hand at a hot brush. How does it work? Designed to be used on dry hair, the glide is supposed to smooth frizz and give a straighter overall finish. The styling brush has ceramic teeth that heat up to 185C, they catch the hair, smoothing and taming frizz as you pass the brush through your lengths. Costing £139, it's certainly not cheap, but compared to other ghd stylers (that retail between £139 and £175) it's not that bad.
But does it live up to the hype? We put the new ghd Glide to the test in our Beauty Lab YouTube series - which, if you're new to these parts, is where we test all sorts of weird and wonderful beauty products on camera.
Hit the button below to watch three Cosmo Editors (with three different hair types), try the Glide out for the first time - and find out whether it's really worth that £139 price tag.
Oh, and if you're into all things beauty, go subscribe to our YouTube channel now, because whatever product you're debating buying this month, chances are, we'll be testing it out on camera.
