Hi,One of the problems I had was the extensions tangling as with Great Lengths the extensions are fixed to small strands of our hair but 1/4 of an inch down, so with myfine hair bits ended up poking out causing it to tangle with the next extension & so on that caused dreads under the G.Lengths, so after many painful hours (they are meant to slip off with the great lengths solvent- take headache tabs in your pocket as this stuff stinks like nail polish remover!), as mine got stuck & had 2 bottles of remover soaked on my head & then virtually ripped out, the salon that put them in would'nt take them out they wanted to do them again- please $2,000.00AU, not again!, so the other rival salon took them out for nothing & told Me you really must have them checked once a week & removed every 2 months as the hair is Indian- yes it is classed as European, if you call the distributor you can get the info in writing, I was so upset as my hair was 4 inches long when they were put in & when removed I had to get 1 inch cut off & my head hurt for weeks, maybe they have improved in 2 years. As a hairdresser( retired), I would wait & get the weaves as in the article on the Hair Boutique site( as in Akinda Magic). If you cannot find it I'm sure Karen Shelton will help you, Jena I really am not trying to be negative but since my last post my best Friend had the same problem as I found out today, I believe nothing should be glued to our hair or as in great lengths the catalyst is only to be attached then bonded with a high heat gun & rolled into place, that to my is like gluey stuff, Please Be Careful, do a little more re-search (like I should have done- had to have the long hair I was depressed)!!, my hair & scalp has had a multitude of problems / slow grow/sensitive scalp, so I was even more depressed & totally broke!!. Once again please check out the article I spoke of before, if I had have read it before lets just say I'd be a happier Person today.All The Best,Simone.(C). :)
