Can you get a good mix mixing with headphones? Have you ever done it or know someone that has got a good mix doing it? Please advise..

I have akg k-44 and it doesnt give me a good mix. Try getting a better one. I like the sennheiser hd380 pro.

I don't think you can. You might get an ok mix, but without hearing the playback on speakers in a room, its never quite right. 

Headphones are great for checking mixes, not mixing the mixes. I use AKG K-240 for checking my mixes. I also use a variety of different studio monitors/speakers.
 
To get your mixes to translate the best, you need to mix them in a room that is tuned and the person mixing it needs their ears to be trained to that room. Or you will never hear the true sound. If you cannot hear the true sound, then how could your mixes translate? Exactly!

If you're just making music for yourself they're probably fine. That's all I do and I have to use headphones because of where I live. 
 
My mixes have always turned out good. I mix with phones and listen to the results with them. The only place I use speakers is in the car and they have always sounded good there too. I'm sure they could be better but so far I'm the only one listening to the mush so it's no big deal for me.
 
Either way I think it's more in training your ears what to listen for. If you're doing it for other people then you want to use monitors. But monitors are only as good as the room they're in.

Get a VRM Box as well....drastically improves the mix you can make on headphones.

I was all hepped to get one but the ending disclaimer on Focusrite's video squelched the deal for me. What a rip!
 

 
Actually it sounds like a cool idea but again it's gonna be colored by which phones you're using. Still, you could use it for just listening or even plug your TV into it. Hmmm...

You definitely need to hear your songs on several different speakers before printing. And in mono too of course.
I find I can do the lion's share of work with the cans tho. (Sennheiser 280 pros)
There's tons of recording and editing to do before you need to tweak those final balances.

The mixes I've been happiest with I've done on near-fields (no subs) and checked back and forth on headphones.  Audio Technica ATH M50 and K240 Studio.
