The Hair Journey – what is the process?
Ethical Sourcing
All Great Lengths hair is sourced from Indian temples where the hair is voluntarily donated as part of a ritual process called tonsuring.
Cleansing & Purifying
Ensuring the cuticle seals in moisture and protects the hair from environmental damage, guaranteeing that the hair is matt and tangle free.
Colouring
A dedicated team of master colourists who do every process by hand. From checking the osmosis baths, colouring, hand blending from 8 base shades to create the full colour range, to the brushing of the hair, whilst ensuring the cuticle remains in the same direction throughout.
Colour Removal
Great Lengths’ de-pigmentation process sees colour molecules gently removed by osmosis. Traditional chemical acid bath processes break down the colour molecule.
Colour Addition
Great Lengths’ de-pigmentation process then sees colour molecules gently replace those removed. Traditional colour methods redeposit colour over the top of the damaged colour molecules.
Blending
The hair is then hand blended to create over 90 shades including 28 blondes, rooted, flowstrand and fashion colour effects.
