    Great Lengths is an incredible hair salon. My hair was done by Elizabeth. Elizabeth is the most amazing hairstylist that has ever lay hands on my hair. I came for a deva/curl cut. They asked for pictures of my hair to let her see what she had to work with before even meeting me in person. I added pictures of what my hair looked like 3 days in and when it's done. It was a good guide for what she needed to do. After my life changing hair session was done. I couldn't stop bragging about her excellence. She truly listened to what I had to say and with her expertise she answered any questions I had about my curly hair. To top it all off, I went home with a review of everything I learned. The sheet was printed and personally summarized. I was SHOCKED at the results! I LOVE my hair more than ever now!

    The style is actually a lot better but I have been running my fingers thru my hair trying to make the color sit well. It doesn't

    This place is great for a haircut for curly hair. But not a color. I walked in for a new look. I told the lady I wanted to look very different when I walked out, but I didn't want Koolaid hair. She dyed it a red you can't see unless I'm standing the sunlight. I asked for something a little less subtle and that didn't require me to ask folks to step outside so they could see my awesome new hair. She dyed it fuschia. Total bill $305. To get a dark color to cover up the now Koolaid hair, another $100. Now, I'll be clear that I didn't go in with a concrete plan. But I should have been able to put myself in the hands of professionals. And to fix it, they definitely shouldn't charge me even more. I'd go back for a cut, but never a makeover situation.

    Caroline used my old highlights to create a whole new look!

    I have had nothing but excellent experiences with my stylist at Great Lengths. This should be THE go to place for curly haired girls in the Mid-South. I am an avid user of DevaCurl, and this salon is the only DevaCurl trained salon in Memphis. They make their policies for cancellations and late arrivals known on the front end for new clients now. They are so attentive and everyone is so polite and talented at what they do.

    I have been struggling with my curly/wavy hair my entire life and this place changed my entire outlook on my hair!! Maribel is amazing!

    I must say I am not going to get a haircut from anyone else other than Melody Birdsong as long as I live in Memphis!

    Great place to get a perfect haircut. I miss her greatly while in Florida. She knows what she is…read moredoing.

    Reasons I love the Salon:…read more 1. I totally forgot about an appointment. Not only did Grace book me for her next opening, she was nice to me and gave me a great haircut even though I TOTALLY VAMPED on my first appointment. Also, I called her as my school was freaking out over a tornado warning to let her know I'd be late to my second appointment, and she was very nice about it and said she would wait and just to call when the storm warning was over to check in about whether we could meet that day or reschedule. (As it turned out, I was only going to be about 10 minutes late, and she was able to see me that day). 2. No negative gossipy-vibe here, and no pressure to tell Grace my life story. I really appreciate a stylist who is friendly and kind, but not trying to force some intimate connection at our first meeting. Maybe it's the difference between 20 year-old me and 30-something year-old me, but I don't need a new best friend every time I get a haircut. 3. Grace really listened to me. I went in with a chin-length bob, which a stylist at another salon had given me when I showed her a picture of a much-shorter cut for my very-curly hair. Grace instantly saw what I wanted, and was enthusiastic about helping me go from long to short. Three weeks later, and I still love this haircut, whether I blow-dry it or not. Grace was also careful not to badmouth the stylist who gave me the dreaded shoulder-bob, affording her the benefit of the doubt. "Maybe," she said, "she'd had someone cry in her chair that day, and she was worried you didn't really want to go short." But I did, and Grace helped me, and I will be back again and again! Practical tip: You can park in the lot behind the Gilmore and go in the back door (watch your step going in) or on the street on Madison.
