ghd Helios Professional Hair Dryer

By Renata Cole, Lead Beauty Editor||How we test

Professional 2400W dryer with ionic technology and optimum temperature for healthy-looking hair.

The ghd Helios is the hair dryer equivalent of the brand's legendary Platinum+ flat iron — a professional tool that prioritizes hair health alongside performance. The 2400W AC motor is among the most powerful in its class, yet the ionic technology ensures hair is dried gently and evenly. We tested this on thick, long hair and found it one of the fastest and smoothest dryers we've reviewed. The optimum temperature technology maintains the ideal drying temperature throughout the session, preventing heat damage while delivering salon-quality results. The ergonomic design is comfortable for extended use. At current pricing, it's the most expensive dryer we've reviewed, but for those who blow-dry daily and prioritize hair health, the investment is justified. The ghd Helios is the professional's choice.
