It’s come to our, and The Internet’s attention that people exist out there who don’t know what GHD stands for. As in, the GHD straightener you use most days.
This writer may or may not have been one of those people, but that’s beside the point.
This week, the hair gods shared a tweet from last year on Instagram, throwing back to the good old days when no one knew what their brand name stood for.
“I’ve just found out ‘ghd’ means ‘good hair day’ please tell me I’m not the only one or am I just stupid,” the Twitter user wrote in August last year.

Around 2005 (if I recall correctly), when GHD’s first hit, magazines used to put the “good hair day” in brackets. I wouldn’t expect anyone who wasn’t in their late teens at that time to know what it stands for.
(For those wanting a laugh, find a girl in her late teens and watch the look of horror on her face as she learns there once was a Time Before Hair Straighteners ;) ).
MAC though - oh dear, I never knew how to pronounce it, let alone what it stood for! Thank you!!!
