Faulty GHDs do not automatically need replacing. If your favourite straighteners have stopped working, a proper assessment can help you decide whether a repair makes sense before you spend money on another pair.
Looking for GHD repairs Glengormley? At iPhoneBits, our family-run electronics repair business offers honest advice, starting with the model and the problem you have noticed.
What is happening with your GHDs?
You might recognise one of these symptoms:
- They will not switch on.
- They switch on but do not heat up.
- The power cuts in and out.
- The cable or plug looks damaged.
- They beep unexpectedly or show warning lights.
These details give us a starting point, but symptoms alone cannot identify the faulty component. A pair that will not heat needs checking before anyone can say what has failed.
Lights and beeps also need to be checked against the particular model. GHD’s manufacturer safety guides describe different operating and warning signals; there is no single diagnosis for every flashing light or beep.
Safety first: stop using damaged or malfunctioning straighteners, switch them off and unplug them. Let them cool somewhere safe. Do not keep powering them up to demonstrate the fault, open the casing or attempt mains electrical testing.
Is a repair practical and worthwhile?
An assessment helps establish the fault, the condition of the straighteners and whether suitable parts are available. That gives us a basis for discussing a repair instead of guessing from a message or photograph.
Not every GHD model or fault will be repairable. Sometimes the condition of the unit or the likely cost makes replacement the more sensible choice. We will explain the options plainly so you can decide what is worthwhile for you.
What affects the repair cost?
The model, the diagnosed fault and the parts required all affect the price of GHD hair straightener repairs. Similar symptoms do not necessarily mean the same work or cost.
Send us the details first and we can advise on the next step. Any assessment charge should be clarified before booking in, and the repair price agreed before work proceeds. The applicable repair warranty will be explained with your quote.

Despite the name, iPhoneBits repairs more than just phones. See our other electronics repairs for remotes, controllers and small electronic devices.

GHD repair FAQs
Can my GHD straighteners be repaired?
Possibly, but we need the model and an assessment of the fault before confirming. Parts availability and the overall condition matter, so we cannot promise every pair can be repaired.
Can you give me a price from a photo?
A photo helps identify the model and visible damage. It cannot confirm an internal fault, so a firm repair quote may need a workshop assessment.
How long will a repair take?
Timing depends on diagnosis, the work needed and parts availability. Contact us for an estimate for your particular straighteners, especially if you need them for a specific date.
Can I bring them to the workshop?
Yes. Check our contact page for opening hours and visiting details. We are upstairs; contacting us first lets us advise on your model before you travel.
Send us your model and fault
To enquire, send the model, a short description of what happens, and clear photos of the straighteners and model label. Mention any warning lights or beeping you have already noticed. Take photos with the straighteners unplugged and cool; there is no need to recreate the fault.
