Great Lengths Hair Extensions



I have noticed more and more women are getting extensions these days do to the fact that they want longer or more voluminous hair. I have attended this years I.B.S. at the Jacob Javits Center N.Y., and it was all about hair extensions. There are so many companies to choose from. So why do we at the THOMAS COLE SALON choose Great Lengths for extensions? Well let me tell you.

Great Lengths purchases hair from India. They purchase what is called temple hair. Chinese and European hair that does not compare and is very inconsistent in quality. Some companies even purchase hair that is combed and collected by Indian women pulled from brushes and the direction of the hair cuticle is mixed and attached any which way. By the time the hair gets to you, it looks really nice but when you wash your extensions you get tremendous frizz because of this low quality hair. Great Lengths uses a special Osmosis process for the de-pigmentation of the hair. this leaves it in the best condition possible. That's why Great Lengths utilizes 100% human hair. The best Indian virgin hair. Indian hair is the closest type of hair to Caucasian hair.

I think it is a fascinating process watching someone actually change their appearance in a matter of hours. The process could take up to 6 hours plus, depending on how much hair you are in need of. Price varies according to amount of hair and prior removal costs ranging from $1000-3000 plus. This is definitely a commitment but the ladies that do and take care of their hair are the ones that I stop and stare at and say wow what beautiful hair that is , i wonder if she has extensions?.....Get a consultation first before you commit!
