Great Lengths

GREAT LENGTHS


Our Salon Stylist/Great Lengths Expert Layla Stannard tells you a little bit about them.







Great Lengths hair extensions are a brilliant way to completely transform your look, or to subtly enhance a style of what you already have. 
Some of our lovely clients have them to get the wow factor with the length and thickness, or others to add texture or a brighter colour within shorter styles.

They're also a great way to add a fashion colour to the hair without the worry of the bright shade fading.
Great lengths are 100% ethically sourced human hair in order to achieve the most natural outcomes, great lengths are the only extension company to obtain and process their own hair. The hair is sourced from the temples of India as part of a Hindu ritual. The revenue from the purchase of the hair goes directly back into the community for different resources.
The hair is also 100% remis which means all the strands face the same direction, how the natural hair would grow. This keeps the hair in optimum condition and prevents a matting effect. The hair is also double drawn with the cuticle intact, this means on a single strand the hair is the same thickness from root to tip creating a healthy supple appearance, which would be clear on healthy natural hair. The cuticle still being intact means that moisture which protects the hair from the elements is sealed within the strand. This guarantees healthy hair.

The bond of the strand is a synthetic keratin bond, so it's as close to the natural keratin found in our hair and nails as it can be. The bond becomes soft when warmed, this makes it pliable in order to fix it into the hair. The bond then cools after a few seconds making the bond firm and fixed into the hair. 
The bonds are cut down to suit each individuals hair type. 

We remove the strands from the hair in salon with a special great lengths formula and tool in order to remove them to keep the natural hair in the best condition. 

As long as the strands are really looked after and cared for and suit your hair type, there is no reason that they will cause damage to your hair.

Overall Great Lengths have amazingly sourced hair, where you can really tell from the brilliant quality of the hair. 
Its great to work with such good quality hair, as the outcomes really show how natural and manageable extensions can be. I love the transformations you can achieve with them, but also how happy each individual is after their experience with their Great Lengths Hair.

Pixie Cut x

PIXIE CUTS

ON WOMEN!!






A ‘pixie cut’ is a short hairstyle worn by a woman. Pixie Cuts became popular in the late 1950s when Audrey Hepburn and twiggy made it famous. 








Pixie cuts are easy to maintain. Pixie cuts can be worn casually and dressed up for special occasions. There are many types of Pixie Cuts; here are a few popular ones.




Pixie
Short hairstyle on a woman with short back and sides 
and slightly longer on top.







Bob
A short hairstyle on a woman in which the hair is typically cut straight around the head at about jaw length.






Asymmetrical
An asymmetric cut is a haircut in which the hair is cut in such a way that the hair does not have left-right symmetry and one side is cut or appears to be longer than the other.






Hooloovoo offer free 15 minute consultations if you was thinking of having a change to a pixie cut!! :)
