In 1992, Great Lengths International developed and patented the first pre-tipped, synthesized keratin bond polymer. Because of this ground breaking technology, many if not all extension companies now claim a “keratin bond” as their form of attachment. Factually, any form of keratin can be combined with any type of polymer to qualify as a “keratin” bond, regardless if it makes any functional difference or benefit in the bond itself. The Great Lengths Synthesized Keratin Bond molecular structure is specifically designed to mimic the molecular structure of human hair. The result gives the Great Lengths bond functionality that is not available in any other hair bonding compound in the marketplace. The functionality is the Great Lengths bond has the ability to expand and contract with human hair.

For example, when you wash your hair or get it wet, the hair shaft expands. When it dries, it contracts. Bonds that do not possess such function will soon begin to shed the extensions and ultimately slide off the natural hair completely because the bond is being stretched with no capacity to contract each time the natural hair expands and contracts. This is a Great Lengths exclusive feature. Because of this exclusive feature of our bond, NO DAMAGE is caused to your own hair and your own hair will grow as normal.

In 2017 GL Tapes were developed and brought to the market. GL Tapes use the same 100% human hair as Great Lengths pre-bonded extensions and have been gently hand processed and blended to create over 58 different shades. Using a medical grade, hypo-allergenic and non-toxic tape, (the only tapes on the market with a medical grade adhesive strip), GL tapes are suitable for all hair densities, creating an instantaneous transformation of length, volume and/or colour. Maintaining GL Tapes is easy! The lightweight tapes are virtually undetectable in the hair and comfortable to wear. Upon following our maintenance and aftercare tips, GL Tapes have the potential to last between 6-8 weeks before professional maintenance is needed.

Nowadays hair thinning and partial alopecia represent constantly growing issues; that is why in 2018 we introduced GL Volume

Fast and easy application, thanks to a special thickening technology: this product is made by Great Lengths high quality natural hair which is hand sewn into the lace net and knotted. The GL Volume piece is designed to build confidence in women suffering from hair loss and thinning or with sparse spots around the crown.

The netting gets applied to the client’s natural hair with the use of GL Keratin drops and GL Braid. Undetectable when applied, GL Volume blends into the client’s natural hair leaving the finish looking natural and seamless. Without any damage to the natural hair, we can help our clients achieve a great look and to feel 100% themselves again.

The GL Volume application is extremely fast and easy, in less than 1 hour our client will have a brand new look, that can be further personalized with any kind of styling (brushing, flat iron and styler).
The GL Volume can be worn for 4-6 weeks and then it should be removed and refitted to ensure it sits and attaches correctly to the natural hair. With appropriate care and maintenance it can last up to 8 months; after this period it is possible to regenerate it for 2 times. It is available in 3 different typologies and also customizable upon request.
