Lives up to its great reputation!
I very rarely post reviews. Something has to really impress me warrant a review. I recently bleached my hair and its condition, as expected, is not particularly great. My hairdresser even told me to stop using a straightener. Not possible so I wondered how I'd cope and didn't want my hair fried! My straightener was a very reputable and popular brand but was definitely doing further damage to my hair. So I did my research as I always do and decided to take the risk on a Glampalm. It leaves my other straightener for dead. I don't have to go over ...Read more
each section more than once and my hair honestly feels healthier than before using it. Not sure how that's possible but it's true. So impressed. And so glad I didn't have to give up using a straightener!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

So good!
I did extensive research on all of the other top brands before settling with glampalm and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I had seen alot of bad reviews for another brand that is common whereas glampalm seemed to stand out compared. I have had this straightener now for a good 6 months and it is still going as good as the day I bought it. My hair is thin and can can look very frizzy at times. The glampalm glides over it easily and gives it a beautiful shine and no frizz! I would say there could be more blog type reviews from people in Aus as this is where I like to look for some info on things like this before purchasing. But very, very happy with my purchase and would happily recommend to others.

I really like this product a lot and seems not damaging the hair this very important to those how using flat iron a lot and the need a good product to make sure it is not affecting their hair since there is some product they might burn the hair badly

No split ends!
My hairdresser recommended me the glam palm I actually thought she was getting paid or something to promote it. But as my hair is thin an frizzy I thought to give it a go and bought it from the website worst case scenario would return it back..
One and half years later is still with me, I don't use any spray or heat protector and do not have any split end I would get them so easily with my old straightener. I use low temperature and reaches it in 10 sec. Is definitely a good idea to consult someone: hairdresser, even the glam palm website they are very helpful and will give you any guidance to achieve the best results.

Best ever iron i have used
I have been using a number of straighteners over the last 15 yrs, including GHD and cloud9, however none compared to the amazing results i got and continue getting with the Glampalm. My daughter has very thick frizzy hair and it has always been hard to tame but not anymore

Okay but does not compare to a GHD
Purchased a GlamPalm after I read a few reviews that stated a GlamPalm was better than a GHD and caused virtually no damage.
No matter the sprays or prep creams I have used, varying the heat setting or sectioning my hair up into tiny/thin sections my hair does not stay straight or smooth for long with a GlamPalm. I would say 20 mins max, this is disheartening considering I have only a slight wave to my hair and is it fine/thin (so not the hardest to straighten).
After a year of denial I finally admitted to my husband, my "necessary" GlamPalm purchase is no where near as good as the results of a perfectly fine old GHD.

A little disappointed with my GP201.
I had a bit of a disappointing experience with my purchase. I bought a GP201 from an i seller online which was faulty and died after my first use. Glampalm (in QLD) were very apologetic and replaced my faulty straightener immediately and even reimbursed me for postage. So I give then 5 stars for customer service!
However I'm reading all other reviews and don't feel the same about the heat level and smoothness. I feel like it does not come close to the heat of a GHD and my hair does not glide through it. I actually have fine straight hair and...Read more
use it to style and I don't achieve the same results as I did with an alternate straightener. A bit concerned that maybe I got another faulty product because the glampalm is receiving rave reviews but others!1 comment

Forget everything else and just buy this!
GHD has nothing on Glampalm! It is honestly like running a hot knife through butter with this straightener. I've never had a hair straightener produce so much silkiness through hair. It's perfect for straightening and curling! Best part is it heats up in less than 30 seconds as well!
And what's even better is, it's cheaper than the GHD! So so so worth it!

Absolutely love it
I love this straightener. My previous hair straightener wouldn't get rid of any frizziness, and if anything it would add to the frizziness! But this straightener completely tames my frizz and keeps it frizz free until I wash my hair. This straightener also works amazingly on low temperatures, I straightened my hair on 150 degrees and it held all day perfectly.
This company also has amazing customer service. I emailed them twice about different things and both times got a reply within a couple of hours.

AMAZING!
Buying a Glam Palm has been one of the best decisions I've ever made!
I would recommend this product to anyone and everyone.
My hair colour changes more than the seasons, with the current colour being a bright plum.
This colour required pre-bleaching, and requires a semi-permanent colour mixed with conditioner to maintain the colour every second wash.
My hair has seen better days.
BUT FINALLY! A hair straightener that doesn't sizzle my hair

Best hair styler I ever purchased
I live in the UK and delivery was very prompt. I used my straightner for the first time on a really windy, damp drizzly day so they were really put to the test. My usually very curly frizzy hair that looks disastrous after being exposed to dampness stayed poker straight and silky all day and evening. I was amazed and delighted when I woke this morning to perfect still straight hair. Customer service and enquiries dealt with quickly too. I cannot recommend this product enough

Awesome curl with low heat.
I have Silver Bullet for 5 years and I thinks it's time to move on as the plate started to crack a little bit (I dropped it many times). GHD is never option for me as I have very fine Asian hair (with colour damaged) that can't stand that high heat. I was thinking to get Cloud 9 but on the way of reading through those reviews, discovered Glampalm. So I took a risk as it's made in Korea so those Korean girls have been using it for years.
I ordered directly from the glampalm website as the prices are the same everywhere. I got it the next day, ...Read more

Thick, coarse curly hair and it did not get silky!
I purchased one several weeks ago and I have long thick curly hair. After straightening it with the glampalm it DOES NOT look like the glossy straight locks being shown all around the internet. No matter how many products I add to my hair to help the process, it resembles a dry horse tail. I ordered the widest iron as per the ordering suggestion and find it impossible to style my hair. Extremely disappointed. I'm happy to take a photo and upload it here if anyone wants to see the reality of what this straightener can do on someone with truly lo...Read more
ng, coarse curly hair. It doesn't fry/frizz my hair the way a GHD brand tended to do, but nor does it leave it looking glossy and silky smooth either. All the $$$ I paid and it didn't deliver the results it claims to do. Doesn't fry hair, straightens hair very quickly- a time saver Didn't deliver silky or smooth hair. Just angry horse tail hair.1 comment

Amazing!
I had two GHDs and then a Cloud Nine which I was told were the best, don't get me wrong they are good but I have very thick, wavy, frizzy hair and it didn't stay straight in the slightest especially in Summer. So I got my google on, and found the Glampalm, it hadn't been out long in Australia and I could only find a couple reviews on it (usually sponsored as well) but I took the gamble. I have never been happier with a hair straightener, I would never go back to a GHD or a Cloud 9, it doesn't feel flimsy, my hair always feels nice after, and stays straighter for longer. Could not be any happier!

cannot recommend enough, worth every cent!!!
Honestly the best tool ever. I can finally tie my hair after straightening and there is no bump. I have fine long hair and its very damaged as it ombre. I wake up with straight hair. My curls hold until I wash my hair. There is no funny burnt hair smell. It's super lightweight and heats up in 10 seconds. I can straighten/curl my hair in less than 10 minutes with no touch ups. I have been recommending this to all my girlfriends and work colleagues. Girls u need to buy this! I placed an order online and received the very next day. Customer servi...Read more

Best Iron Ever
This is by far the best straightening iron I've ever used.
My hair puts up with a lot yet when I use my Glampalm it's almost like ironing a treatment through my hair.
Love the long cord and variable heat settings.
Well priced and comes in a beautiful bag and bonus hair clips.
Would never change!
Doesn't damage my hair, nice long cord, variable heat settings
Nothing!

Best Straightener EVER!!
I have very thick, shoulder length wavy European hair that's not super curly but not relaxed curly either so when I leave it natural I end up with a big bouffant 'do' that I can’t style in any way, shape or form! I have been straightening my hair for at least 20 years.. first with an actual iron, then with the very heavy but effective Muster and then the GHD came along and I thought I'd found the perfect iron. But I was wrong! The GlamPalm has got to be hands down the champion of hair irons out in the market today! I was researching a new stra...Read more
ightener as my GHD was on its way out and I felt that it wasn't as effective as it used to be. I was constantly using it every day to get kinks outs and I had to do at least 3 or 4 passes to get the desired effect (did I mention my hair is VERY thick?).With the GlamPalm I only have to do 1 pass and it takes less time to do my whole head. My hair looks shiny, feels so soft and stays straight for at least 3 days! It's easy to use, feels light, has a long swivel cord so you don't get tangled up and has different heat settings to choose from. If you're looking for a new iron I highly recommend that you invest in the GlamPalm. They also have different sized irons to suit all hair types, I use the GP201 which is the same size as the GHD, once my hair is longer I'll upgrade to the GP313. Get yourself a GlamPalm, you WON'T be disappointed! Everything. NoneSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Ten times better than a GHD
I love this straightener. I have curly, frizzy hair that is hard to maintain. I have had three GHD's, the most recent purchased last year. It made my hair feel terrible and I always had to re-straighten half an hour after straightening - and even after that it wouldn't last the night. After reading the reviews for the GlamPalm I decided to purchase one, a 313, and the reviews were all absolutely right - it is amazing. My hair stays straight for days and makes it feel like it does just after a haircut. Given it is the same price as a GHD (or ch...Read more

Hi Lisa,
It comes with 11 heat settings. From 100 to 200 degrees.
The Clinic has a Clinic mode which is 60 degrees.
Kindest regards,
Thank you so much for your answer!
Liishaasked
I have long fine hair and looking at buying a glampalm, to straighten and curl. I've seen other questions which suggest 201 to be best for my hair type. Does anyone know much about glampalm clinic and whether it's better suited?
Thanks

Hi Liisha, we would recommend you the GP201 or GlamPalm Clinic. The Clinic will be released on June 7th.
The differences between the two are: slightly longer plates, nano-vibrating technology and clinic mode and of course the white with black plates design.
Just placed my order for the clinic can't wait
eearieparkasked
I want to straighten and curl long fine hair. Is the 201 the best option? Would like to work faster if the bigger plates would curl fine hair that will hold. Also is there a product you would recommend to hold curls for all day dance performances?
2 answers
If you have long fine hair the 313, or the simple touch would ideal. The 501 is fantastic but it is more designed for long thick hair. I'm sure the 501 would work equally as good in your hair, but as the plates are that bit wider, the curls would possibly be wider.
As for holding curls, Moroccan Curl control mousse or Moroccan curl defining creamy (they have a heat protector in them) once you've curled wait for it to cool and give a short spray of hairspray. Just remember though putting a hair straightener on hair that has hairspray on it, is not a good thing.
I am a hairdresser and i would recommend GP 201 or simpletouch as your hair is fine.The curls will last longer when you curl with one of those straighteners.:)
For the hair spray i agree with Sunlily's answer.
