E gibbofora tends to get leggy under normal circumstance. As for my experience, they do need more light and etiolate rather readily if their light requirement is not met. Gradually increase exposure to more light. I assume this is placed on a very shady area or probably indoors. Ensure pot has a drainage hole and soil is fast draining.

Thank you! it is indoors. I will start increasing the amount of sunlight. What does beheading it do for the plant and how do I do it??

Beheading is cutting top off, drying for a day or so and then re-rooting, but best to get it growing better first. The soil is wrong, way too peaty and far too wet. See advise given in your other thread about your two cacti for recipe or search for succulent soil mix using the search box above, plenty of info there.
