ghd Curve Soft Curl Iron 1.25" Ceramic Barrel — Voluminous Soft Curls, 365ºF Ultra‑Zone

ghd Curve® Soft Curl Iron is a 1.25" ceramic-barrel curling iron engineered to create voluminous, soft curls and waves while maintaining a consistent 365ºF for long-lasting, glossy results.

Designed for people with medium to long hair who want full-bodied curls without repeated high-heat passes, this styler uses ghd’s patented Ultra-Zone technology to monitor and adjust heat 250 times per second. The result is even temperature control across the barrel, which helps secure shape while reducing the need for excess heat. A fast 25-second heat-up, a professional-length swivel cord, and travel-ready universal voltage make it practical for both salon and at-home styling routines.

How does the Curve® Soft Curl Iron create big, soft curls?

The wide 1.25" ceramic barrel produces larger, looser curls and natural-looking waves rather than tight ringlets. Its smooth ceramic surface lets hair glide without snagging, so strands wrap and release cleanly for a bouncy finish. The spring clamp aids in holding hair in place while styling, making it easier to form uniform curls from root to tip.

• 1.25" ceramic barrel for voluminous curls and soft waves
• Spring clamp for secure hold during wrapping
• Cool tip for safe handling when shaping curls

Why is the 365ºF temperature important, and how does Ultra-Zone help?

ghd sets the iron to an optimized 365ºF, chosen to balance effective styling with minimized thermal stress. Ultra-Zone technology constantly monitors heat and adapts across the barrel to maintain that target temperature, so each section of hair receives consistent heat. This precision reduces repeated passes and helps preserve shine and texture.

• Patented Ultra-Zone senses and adjusts heat 250 times/second
• Preset safe-for-hair 365ºF working temperature
• Even heat distribution for uniform curl retention

What convenience and safety features does it include for everyday use?

The tool is built for regular use with practical safety and ergonomic touches. An automatic sleep mode powers the iron down after 30 minutes of inactivity, and a built-in safety stand protects surfaces when styling. The 360° swivel cord and professional-length lead give freedom of movement around a salon chair or bathroom counter.

• Auto sleep mode after 30 minutes for peace of mind
