Boots has slashed prices off everything from skincare to make-up in its summer sale, which is running for a limited time. The Remington Shea Soft Straightener features ceramic plates coated with Shea oil, designed to add shine and leave the hair feeling silky smooth. It has five temperature settings ranging from 150°c to 230°c, with an ultra-fast heat-up time of 15 seconds.

It's racked up impressive ratings on the Boots website, with several shoppers stating that it holds up in comparison to the must-loved GHD straightener. One reviewer wrote: "Absolutely thrilled with this purchase, so easy to use and leaves me normally dry and brittle hair feeling and looking very silky and straight- for the price, they are unbeatable." 1 Another added: "Bought these to replace an old set of GHDs, I was a bit suspicious of the price but decided to give them a go. My hair is very thick and curly so I usually straighten it the night before to avoid unnecessary kinks, but these have been truly amazing and I don't say that lightly. They take a little longer to heat up at the max temperature, but when they do, they straighten my hair perfectly. So much so, I can now wash and straighten my hair and go out without fear of kinks - the best £20 I've spent in a long time."

I got these yesterday, washed my hair last night and used these and I am so impressed! My hair is really thick and nothing ever really straightens it, I usually have to get my hair blown-out by the hairdresser if I want to wear my hair down, but with these I am able to wear my hair down as they are just fab." Another added: "I've used GHD wide-plate straighteners on my thick, naturally curly hair on and off since they came out. I was dubious about these, despite the rave reviews, but I ordered some and boy am I delighted I did! They're fantastic, I'd go so far as to say better than my ageing GHD. They glide through my hair, so smoothly, I'm still experimenting with getting the lowest (adjustable) heat setting to do the job, but either way, they still do an amazing job at a much lower fixed temp than the GHDs."
