Great Lengths pre bonded hair extensions are a long lasting way to add natural length, volume and thickness. Small strands of premium human hair are attached to your own hair with a keratin bond, which moves and feels like your natural hair. At Simon Warwick Salons in Maida Vale we fit Great Lengths keratin bond extensions, widely regarded as one of the best extension systems for a seamless, natural looking result.

Quick answer: Great Lengths pre bonded extensions usually last two to four months with the right care. They use 100% Remy human hair, the bonds are gentle on your natural hair, and removal is done in the salon without pulling. See our hair extensions in Maida Vale or book a free consultation.

Why choose Great Lengths pre bonded extensions?

Great Lengths is one of the best known names in hair extensions, and for good reason.

  • Natural look and movement. The small bonds are discreet, so the hair moves like your own with nothing bulky to hide.
  • Long lasting. Pre bonded extensions are designed for longer wear, typically two to four months.
  • Premium hair. Great Lengths uses 100% Remy human hair, double drawn for thickness from root to tip.
  • Gentle bonds. The keratin bond mimics the natural protein in your hair, giving a secure hold that is kind to your own hair.

Good to know: if you would rather have a quicker fitting with shorter, reusable wear, our guide to tape in hair extensions explains how the two methods compare.

What happens at your consultation

Every Great Lengths fitting starts with a free consultation. We check that bonded extensions suit your hair type, plan where the bonds will sit, and match the length and colour so the extensions blend completely with your natural hair, including any highlights or balayage.

How many bonds do you need?

The number of bonds depends on your hair and the result you want.

  • Around 10 bonds. Adds subtle volume to the sides or a few strands of colour.
  • Around 50 bonds. Ideal for thicker, fuller hair.
  • Around 100 bonds. The full transformation for maximum volume and length.

We confirm the right number at your consultation, and our guide to what hair extensions cost in London explains how method and quantity shape the price.

Caring for Great Lengths extensions

Looking after your bonds properly helps them last the full two to four months. Brush gently and often with a loop brush, holding the hair near the bonds as you go. Keep heat styling moderate and avoid putting straighteners or tongs directly on the bonds, as excess heat softens the keratin. We will recommend the right shampoo, conditioner and styling products for your hair at your fitting.

Regular salon visits keep everything in top condition. Trims and professional conditioning treatments such as Olaplex help your natural hair and your extensions stay healthy for longer.

Frequently asked questions

How long do Great Lengths extensions last?

Great Lengths pre bonded extensions usually last two to four months, depending on how quickly your hair grows and how you care for them. Gentle brushing, moderate heat and the right products all help them last longer.

Do pre bonded extensions damage your hair?

Not when they are fitted, maintained and removed by an experienced stylist. The keratin bonds are designed to be gentle on your natural hair, and we check your hair at consultation to make sure the method is right for you.

How are Great Lengths extensions removed?

The bonds are softened with a gentle removal solution in the salon, then slid out without pulling or damaging your natural hair. Never try to remove bonded extensions at home.

Are Great Lengths extensions worth it?

If you want long lasting length or volume that looks completely natural, many people find Great Lengths worth the investment. The quality of the hair and the longer wear between appointments mean the cost is spread across months rather than weeks.
