What I wish I knew before investing in a hair extension specialty 

1. 💵 It’s quite the investment 💵. Be prepared for a significant upfront cost and a steep learning curve. Your initial installs might not turn a profit until you nail down your pricing strategy and start building a stock of quality hair extensions. It requires both time and resources to get everything just right.
2. ⏱️ The first few installs will be time-consuming, especially if you don’t have an assistant to help. You’ll likely find that your hourly rate feels lower than anticipated until you become more efficient with the process. It’s important to be patient and practice to reduce the time it takes to complete each install.
3. 🙌🏻 Ongoing support is a game-changer 🙌🏻. Joining a community or finding a mentor who can offer guidance, accountability and can provide valuable feedback on your work. This support can help you improve your techniques and overcome challenges you might face along the way.
4. 🪡🪡 Practice on doll heads and models before working on clients. This step is crucial for perfecting your skills and ensuring that your first few client installations are polished and professional. Save client time for delivering top-notch service rather than using it as practice sessions.
Embrace the journey with a mindset of patience and persistence. With dedication and continuous learning, you’ll find success and thrive in the hair extension specialty.
