Anyone had Great Length extensions?

Has anyone here had Great Length extensions? I just got a $200 off
coupon at a fashion show and I've always wondered what it would be
like to have longer hair.
My hair has always been fine so I've usually stuck with ear to chin
length styles and if I manage to grow it long enough for a low
ponytail, the pony is only maybe 1/2 inch diameter. Fine hair!
I'd love to try shoulder (or so) length hair.
What do you think of Great Length extensions? (Or other extensions)
How long did they really last? Is it manageable?
I'm really interested in hearing some feedback!
Thanks, Melanie

I bought (many moons ago) the hair extensions sold by Priscilla Presley and
Larry King's wife... forget her name... and they were great quality. I paid
about $400 for them.
Back then you had your choice of color and length. Since the real human hair
is dyed (except black, as it is natural Chinese hair) you had to be careful
about what color you chose as dying it again isn't going to give 100%
predictable results. I bought the long length because I wanted to have some
cut and some not cut, but I ended up having it all cut for different reasons.
The hair needs constant conditioning, and I think this to be true with any and
all hair pieces made of natural human hair. When you don't have it conditioned
regularly it really gets dried out and I got split ends on some of my hair.
Regular trimming like you do with your own hair is similar. Also, you want to
keep it out of anything plastic. A good set of extensions will come with a
nice wooden or cardboard storage box. Ventilation is key.
I don't wear them anymore and I think it has been about 11 years since I bought
them. I stopped wearing them about five years ago when they got really dry. I
got six good years out of them if I had conditioned them after each use or so.
I can't say enough: CONDITION, CONDITION, CONDITION! and PROPER STORAGE! If I
had known then what I know now I think they'd be wearable today.
You'll have a blast with them. They make hair more fun.

I've bought and worn hair extensions and can't say enough positive things about length styles and if I manage to grow it long enough for a low
ponytail, the pony is only maybe 1/2 inch diameter. Fine hair!
