ghd launches four new curling tongs for the perfect way to create 'beach waves'
GHD is one of the leading hair brands we have relied on for decades. In fact, our first pair of straighteners, which are still going strong almost 20 years later, are from GHD.
We have tried and tested a whole host of heated hair tools from GHD over the years, which never fail to achieve a sleek salon-worthy hairstyle in a matter of minutes.
So we are pleased to learn GHD is expanding its professional collection of hair tools with not one, but four new curling tools.
GHD has created two curling wands as well as two curling tongs, which help to create tight ringlets, beach waves, and voluminous Hollywood waves in different sizes depending on the barrel depth, the length of your hair and desired finish.
The new releases include the Chronos Curve Max Wand, Conical Wand, Classic Tong and Grand Tong, all of which retail for £189.
The new quartet boasts award-winning Chronos HD technology, which functions to heat up quickly so you can style your hair three times faster and with lasting results.
The advanced curl responsive technology means this tool works with you as you tong your locks to achieve your desired locks.
Not only are the four curling devices quick to use, leave a sleek finish with longlasting hold, but these tongs promise high definition, and 50% more shine, which we can certainly attest to as no tool has left us with frizz or flyaways.
The other USP is the hair tools, like most of GHD's tools, is it reaches one temperature of 185°C, and this is not adjustable. Simply switch on your tongs, press the single main button, wait for the beep to alert you the device is ready to use and start curling. This single temperature is maintained throughout the styling session, which means an even heat distribution, no spikes in temperature that could fry your hair. More Trending
The main difference between the two curl wands and the curling tongs is that the tongs feature a clip to hold your hair in place when styling it, while the wands are just barrels you wrap your hair around to style.
The new GHD hair tolls will hit the shelves on 9th July, and we are ready to get shopping and styling.
The fun doesn't stop there. If you're undecided which tool is best for your hair type, length, texture and needs, GHD has created an interactive tool to help. Simply answer four questions about your hair and desired hairstyle, you will then receive product recommendations. In the meantime, our round up may suffice to help you pick your new hair tool.
The Max Wand is a larger version of the signature Creative Curl Wand, but the barrel is slightly larger and rounder without the tapered end. It also uses GHD's exclusive curl-responsive technology to help achieve loose waves.It is best for mid to long length hair. BUY FOR £189
The Conical Wand is also similar to the Creative Curl wand because it tapers at the end so you can reach closer to the root. This is ideal for all hair lengths and types. BUY FOR £189
The Classic Tong bares a resemblance to the Curve Classic Curl Tong, because it features the clip to hold the hair piece in place when styling it.However, this new iteration utilises GHD's curl responsive technology for defined curls that are sleek and 50% more shiny. Buy for £189

Dr. Phil launching new media network of ‘citizen journalists' after his first one goes bankrupt
Celebrity psychologist Dr Phil McGraw is launching a new media network that will provide opportunities for 'citizen journalists' to share their stories, less than two weeks after a similar venture went bankrupt. Envoy Media Co. will include 'live, balanced news, original entertainment programming, and immersive viewer experiences,' according to a press release shared by The Hollywood Reporter. It comes after McGraw's conservative-leaning cable network, Merit Street Media, filed for bankruptcy earlier this month, barely a year after its launch, while also suing its distribution partner, Trinity Broadcasting, for breach of contract. THC reported that Envoy Media will also include library programming and original shows from McGraw and his friend and fellow TV star Steve Harvey, who also collaborated on Merit Street. The release included that the network's app would also 'provide an opportunity for citizen journalists to share news and stories from their communities while seamlessly integrating curated user-generated content on a national scale.' In a statement following the announcement of the new network, McGraw said: 'As always, my commitment and that of the Envoy network team is to focus on real people, facing real challenges, seeking real solutions. 'By talking about things that matter to people who care, presenting facts, encouraging people to think critically, they can make up their own minds. Our disruptive technology will engage Envoy viewers at an unprecedented level in real time.' McGraw's previous attempt at a multi-platform media company came in late 2023, following his successful two-decade run as a popular daytime talk show host. Merit Street Media featured a Dr. Phil primetime program as its flagship show. 'Merit Street Media will be a resource of information and strategies to fight for America and its families, which are under a cultural 'woke' assault as never before," McGraw said in a statement at the time. 'I love this country and I believe family is the backbone of our society. Together we are going to stand strong and fight for the very soul and sanity of America and get things that matter back on track.' However, roughly four months after its official launch in April 2024, Merit Street laid off roughly 40 employees – around one-third of its total staff. In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in the Northern District Court of Texas, Merit Street cited a 'severely strained liquidity position' and the inability to secure additional capital as reasons for the declaration. The subsequent lawsuit against Trinity alleged that the broadcaster 'reneged on its obligations and abused its position as the controlling shareholder of Merit Street,' leaving the channel with over $100 million in debt. 'These failures by TBN were neither unintended nor inadvertent,' the lawsuit read. 'They were a conscious, intentional pattern of choices made with full awareness that the consequence of which was to sabotage and seal the fate of a new but already nationally acclaimed network.'

Roads closed and businesses affected by Kilmarnock fire
The blaze erupted at the back of a four-storey building on King Street, and surrounding roads remain closed as drivers and pedestrians are urged to avoid the area. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service responded to the incident around 8:55pm, and no injuries have been reported as of yet with enquiries ongoing to establish the cause of the fire.

Several businesses have been affected and remain closed, including Burns Mall. Speaking to STV News, the owners of a tattoo studio destroyed in the incident said they have 'lost everything'. Hard Luck Tattoo Studio, which reopened in June after a year of renovations, was ruined by the fire, leaving owners Niky Brown and Kirsty Donald as well as their eight staff members without their livelihoods. The couple, who have a 3-month-old child, described the fire as something out of a "Hollywood film". A GoFundMe has been launched and has already received £13,000 in donations to replace some of the studio's kit, worth upwards of £50,000.
