I have been using GHD hair straighteners for years and years – I first got some whilst in secondary school, and I'm now 35, so they are really important to me. I am sure you have considered selling your old, working GHDs on the likes of eBay or sell them on Vinted, but what about GHDs that are broken? Can you sell broken GHDs for cash? Yes, yes you can!

I was lucky enough to be bought a lovely pair of new straighteners for Christmas to replace my slightly dangerous straighteners, there was a loose connection somewhere that meant you could hear the electricity crackle. I looked into getting them repaired and then selling them on eBay but this didn't seem very cost effective. Many recycling websites offered around £12 for a working pair which mine were obviously not. Here is how to sell broken GHDs for cash.
