Hi ladies!
I have been told by my hair stylist that I will probably need some extensions put in to thicken my hair a bit for my up-do so that it stays put. I’ve heard that Great Lengths are ment to be really good, has anyone had them or personally know someone who’s had them? Did they look natural? Please let me know what you thought of them.

Hi Missy-Binks,
I haven’t used Great Lengths, but I do have a set of extensions from Diva http://www.originaldiva.com.au/ and they are awesome! I wear them all the time to thicken my hair and have had no problems with them. If you do want to buy Diva extensions though – a little tip, don’t get them direct from the company as there are lots of other places you can get them online cheaper (I managed to save $100 by shopping around!) just make sure they are an authorised dealer and not a copy on ebay.
Good luck!

Hi Missy-Binks
I absolutely love Great Lengths! I’ve had them for about a year now and I will definitely have them in for my wedding hairstyle. They look completely natural whether your hair is up or down. I have them more for volume because as I’ve grown my hair longer for my wedding it’s become flat and looks thinner but with Great Lengths in it’s thicker and more beautiful. In summer I love wearing them “unstyled” the hair has a natural wave in it that is gorgeous with a bit of mousse in and left to dry naturally.
Have a look at their website http://www.greatlengths.com.au, it’s very informative and thats how I found my hairdresser. She’s so great that she became my regular hairdresser as well as my hair extensionist.

Hi Missy-Binks!
if you are willing to spend over 1000.00 on hair extensions then get them although I suggest you try the mirco rings that are half the price! or even try Sydney Hair Extensions in Brighton Le Sands the quality is AMAZING!
Great Lengths is obviously great for its name but its not the best of the best shop around before you plunging into EXTREME amounts of money gone down the drain.
Maybe evenask your hairdresser to put a couple of strands of hair in to se how you like it. I use to be a hairdresser and found that the client was satisfied knowing what kind of hair she was having in.
hope this helps!

Thanks for all your help ladies! Kate8711 I think I’ll try the clip in ones from Diva on your recommendation and see how they look in my silly baby fine hair. If they don’t work out I might just bite the bullet and go with Great Lengths, I’ll be sure to let everyone know how it works out.
Hope all your planning is going well!
