==Company Foundation & History==
Martin Penny, Gary Douglas, and Robert Powls founded ghd in 2001.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ghd: The Story Behind the Brand )〕 The three collaborated to buy the rights to a hair straightening iron from a South Korean inventor. The brand quickly took off organically, and the company did not even begin advertising until two years after its launch.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of ghd )〕 By then, hair salons and word of mouth carried ghd to £12 million, against a forecast of between £3 million and £4 million.〔
In 2004, ghd entered the North American market, bringing its total worldwide sales generating £37 million in revenue.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=GHD sets sights on U.S. )〕 The Jemella Group, which owned the ghd brand, was bought by Lloyds Development Capital for £55 million in 2006.〔 It was sold 11 months later to Montagu Private Equity for £160 million. Lion Capital, a British private equity firm, purchased ghd in 2013 for approximately £300 million.
