I haven't tried my GHDs yet but my straightners and my hairdryer didn't work when we were there in 2005. We popped down to Walmart though and bought v. cheap replacements that worked better than mine at home!
I bought some from the US ebay site just before we went & got them delivered to the hotel! This way I was able to research through ebay feedback which were good value etc. Paid about $35 inc. delivery & there's no faffing about with plug adaptors!
That said, none of them are going to be as effective as they are at home because of the low voltage, but take your time & you will get results. Good luck,
Sallie
Can you remember the episode of Friends where Monica went to Barbados and her hair got bigger as the episode went on?
Well if your hair has a slight kink or wave or is slightly curly yours will do the same!! In Florida in the summer the humidity is awful to your "do". You'll need some good "product" to keep it under control

Off topic a bit, but I remember when I was living in the UK, the other half plugged the hairdryer in without the converter. So, it was hairdryer, plug adapter, outlet. Now it occurred to me that that the hairdryer resembled more of a heatgun for removing paint than a hairdryer. I couldn't quite understand why until I realized that it had 220V surging through it.
my straightners didn't work my hair was so frizzy on holiday at xmas but it goes that way with the heat and to be honest i didn't care after all it was a holiday your walking about for hours and going on rides so ur hair going to end up in a mess.
now, not that i want to worry anyone, but my straightners didnt work and then the joy neaither did my hair dryer!!!! needless to say we have none of our florida photos on show due to my rather large and fuzzy hair!! first time i ever i was glad when it rained!!!
I plan to buy a pair of Straighteners when I get to florida as my one's wouldn't work in NY and my cousin had to loan me a pair she bought for her niece when hers wouldn't work. I plan to then give them to my MIL as she goes to florida a week after we get home.
