You're only using the cool setting?! You're fine, though I think that if you are "rough drying" properly, you might want to consider starting out at medium heat to about 75% dry and then finishing with cool setting from there.
That's good you are using the GHD on large sections of hair, and just one pass. That flat iron gets pretty hot. But it sounds like you are using it correctly.
In case you're worried, just use a reconstructor like K-pak or Aphogee 2 min every few weeks and you'll be fine. Depends on your hair texture though (if your strands are a fine medium or coarse).

Thank you Artemis! I will try rough drying on medium maybe as cool does take a little longer too I had actually just done an aphogee treatment, so glad i got confirmation on that!
My strands are actually quite thick however i dont have very dense hair, there isnt much of it, that is why i preferred the blow drying as it added volume also.
I also just got a steamer for my birthday today so im hoping that will help with the health of my hair if i do end up blowdrying more.
