Great Lengths have been making women look glamorous for over 20 years and have plenty more to give.
With their patented system of formulated bonds, Great Lengths are the safest hair extensions available and when fitted properly and looked after properly can last for up to 5 months. Great Lengths hair extensions require minimal aftercare to keep them looking great but there are a few guidelines that you need to adhere to. Great Lengths have launched a range of specialised products designed to prolong the length of your hair extensions. Simply by using these products you will be looking after your extensions for many months to come.
In addition to using the specialised Great Lengths after care products, you should follow these maintenance tips. Hair extensions aren't difficult to look after but as most people opt to length their hair with Great Lengths, you will have to pay more attention to the ends and the condition of the hair is a similar way as you would long natural hair. Once you have had your extensions fitted your stylist will guide you through maintenance information and will also set up a maintenance check with you.
Immediately after having your extensions fitted you need to wait for at least 48 hours to wash them. If you fail to do so you run the risk of weakening the bonds and the extensions falling out. Make sure you de-tangle your hair with a wide tooth comb before washing your hair, you need to be shampooing and conditioning your locks at least once a week. Always finish with diluted Final Rinse Anti Tap by Great Lengths to restore the pH value of your hair.
Once you have washed your hair then you need to dry is thoroughly. Start at the bond as this is the most vulnerable part of the extension and avoid scrubbing the hair dry, instead use a blotting motion. You can use appliances such as hair dryers and straightening irons but make sure you stay away from the bond and blow dry your hair on a cool/warm temperature.
Great Lengths supply a great range of brushes that have soft bristles and are flat headed to avoid catching the bonds and potentially pulling the extensions out. These are the best brushed to use as they are gentle and remove tangles easily. Always stick to small sections of hair when brushing and start at the bottom and work your way up. Avoid combing between the scalp and the bond and make sure you are separating the bonds with your fingers on regular basis otherwise your hair will begin to matt.
If applying products such as serum, always avoid the bond area as oily products could cause the bonds to slip. When sleeping it is recommended to tie hair in a loose pony tail or plait to avoid tangling.
Hair extensions don't require a lot of extra maintenance, just a few simple guidelines to follow and your extensions will always look amazing!
