Stylists are trained to be experts in colour matching, blending, and placement to create an array of colour effects. In fact, often stylists will pre-blend strands before an application to create the most natural blend of shades for the perfect match. These types of extensions have been very gently processed and will allow colour to be deposited without damage.

Remy hair has the cuticle layer intact. This is what gives the hair its natural shine and body. Click here to book in your complimentary hair extension consultation with Louise. The method of application and length of hair is tailored to every guest with a complimentary consultation to ensure the most discreet and seamless result. My top tips are:. If these simple instructions are followed, you will find your natural hair looking longer, healthier and stronger than ever.
The hair is all ethically sourced using the finest quality Indian temple hair. Every strand is the same length from root to tip and the cuticle will always face in the same direction. Both methods are suitable for adding length, volume and are also a great way to introduce colour. The bond is wrapped round a small supporting section of hair and secured in place just down from the root using an application machine.
This depends on the desired outcome and the amount of extensions that are required, and if you have chosen individual strands or GL Tapes. An estimated application time will be given during the consultation.
How long do Great Lengths Extensions last? While in general, we recommend removal of Great Lengths pre-bonded extensions every months, and removal of GL Tape systems every weeks, both of these removal time-frames are dependent on a number of factors, such as:.
The type of application i. Was it to lengthen or to add volume; were full bonds or half bonds installed etc. Ladies there is a risk that Great Lengths hair extensions may not suit you or your hair type. If your hair is fine and not strong enough to hold the extension there is a chance your bonds may need to come out.
This is why it is vital that you return for your complimentary visit 1 month after application. In 5 years I have had only 2 cases of hair not being strong enough for extensions and there is no way of knowing before you apply so please follow the recommended aftercare guidelines and if there is anything that concerns you make sure you give your Great Lengths stylist a ring.

This allows the bond to attach to the hair shaft and not slide. The hair is then dried and straightened. Your stylist will first determine where the extension will start.
This is decided by holding the hair up, placing the pintail behind and if you can see the tail you need to move in toward middle of the head. The reason this is done is that when you tie up your hair you will not see your bonds around the perimeter of the hair line.
This is OK its just getting used to your new do and also in the first shampoo the hair will settle more into your natural hair. One major piece of advice I would give would be to brush the bejesus out of your hair, good strong strokes feeling the bristles running along your scalp all the way down to the back of your neck nape paying specific attention to your crown area and also the sides.
Very importantly pay attention to the side you sleep on, try a satin pillow case it allows the hair to move freely avoiding friction from experience a lot of the matting form from friction or lack of brushing so the stronger you brush from the roots the better it is for your extensions.
Start from the end brushing gently as you work towards roots be a bit firmer on the roots, gentle brushing on the scalp will not remove any knots or matting.
