Great Lengths: The Bridal Hair Essential for Every Big Day
With wedding season upon us, Great Lengths extensions are perfect for enhancing your bridal clients' natural hair on their big day
As modern weddings come in all shapes and sizes, there is an ever-growing demand for bespoke, confidence-boosting bridal hair. With more brides than ever investing in their wedding day look, and prioritising styles that last from aisle to afterparty, Great Lengths hair extensions are the perfect solution for those looking to elevate their natural hair.
Whether it's a client who wears bonds or GL Tapes regularly and can't imagine her big day without them, or someone completely new to extensions, they offer something for everyone, and are a great way to boost your bridal bookings.
Bridal-ready innovation with
GL Tapes
The new GL Tapes Natural Cut offer even more flexibility for bridal clients. Designed with up to 13 different lengths of double-drawn hair per tape, they create a beautifully tapered, natural finish at the ends - meaning less cutting, quicker blending, and a softer result that looks and feels like the client's own hair.
Perfect for one-day transformations or subtle enhancements ahead of the wedding, GL Tapes Natural Cut are a dream solution for destination brides or those flying in for a ceremony as they are quick to apply, easy to blend and completely discreet. Stylists can use them to add fullness around the face, support an intricate updo or build volume in finer areas where a bit of extra lift makes all the difference.
Meanwhile, there are also options for brides looking for a more long-term solution, such as those wanting their extensions to last through the honeymoon -GL Pre-Bonded extensions offer up to five months of comfortable, invisible wear.
Inspiration starts here
From clean ballet buns and sleek veils to tousled waves, soft ponytails and boho braids, Great Lengths Pre-Bonded extensions and GL Tapes offer endless versatility for bridal hair. Whether it's extra volume to support an updo, added length for a show-stopping wave or a touch of chemical-free colour to complement the overall look, they open up a world of possibilities for stylists and their clients.
'Whether it's volume, length, colour enhancement or simply a little added luxury for the big day, Great Lengths delivers exceptional-quality, ethically sourced hair, and flawless results: says Pamela Docherty, Great Lengths digital advocate and owner of Peeky & Ty in Glasgow, Scotland.
·For stylists who are new to the Great Lengths range, I'd say yes, it's brilliant for business, but it's also genuinely brilliant for your brides. The bonds are so discreet - you can style the hair up or down on the wedding day, and you won't see a thing. They gives your bride the freedom to change up her look and still feel
secure. GL Tapes are also amazing for bridal work, and you can even apply them on the day if needed. You can quickly place a few in to help create the Pinterest look the bride has got her heart set on. A lot of those inspiration pies, and now Al styles too, rely on extensions -something brides don't always realise."
