Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Coty completed ghd's acquisition in 2026, backing expansion with stronger balance-sheet flexibility.
  • July 2026 Sculpt and Speed launches refresh the lineup and support premium pricing.
  • ghd's direct, premium-retail, and Amazon channels broaden reach beyond salon dependence.

What critics are saying

  • Coty's September 2025 Consumer Beauty review threatens portfolio priorities and investment levels.
  • Dyson, L'Oréal, and Shark intensify pressure on ghd's premium appliance pricing.
  • If Sculpt disappoints, ghd loses its innovation edge and becomes a commodity appliance brand.

What makes GHD unique

  • ghd owns premium heat-control technology and salon-grade styling devices.
  • The July 2026 Sculpt launch added real-time temperature adaptation and AI styling.
  • Coty keeps ghd as a standalone global brand across salons, retail, and e-commerce.
