Hair Extensions: Master the Art & Build a Beauty Career

Ever wondered how stylists create that instant length and volume? Hair extensions are the secret weapon, and knowing how to apply them can turn a hobby into a solid income. At Dollhouse Beauty Academy we break down everything you need, from beginner basics to salon‑ready skills.

Why Learn Hair Extensions?

Clients love extensions because they give instant results without waiting for hair to grow. That demand means salons are constantly hiring technicians who can attach tape‑in, micro‑link, or keratin‑bonded extensions quickly and safely. Mastering these methods not only adds a high‑ticket service to your menu, it also opens doors to freelance work, mobile bookings, and even starting your own brand.

What You’ll Learn in Our Hair Extension Courses

Our program is hands‑on from day one. You’ll start with the anatomy of hair, learning how texture, porosity, and weight affect which extension type works best. Next, we cover the three most popular systems:

Tape‑in extensions – quick to apply, perfect for fine to medium hair. You’ll practice cutting, blending, and securing the tape so it stays invisible.

Micro‑link (micro‑bead) extensions – great for clients who want a natural look without heat. We teach you how to choose the right bead size, attach safely, and remove without damage.

Keratin‑bonded (fusion) extensions – the premium option for long‑lasting volume. You’ll learn heat‑controlled bonding, proper placement, and post‑service care.

Each module includes a live demo, then you repeat the technique on mannequin heads under instructor supervision. We also cover sanitation, client consultation, pricing, and how to market your new service.

By the end of the course you’ll have a portfolio of real‑world looks you can show potential employers or clients. You’ll also receive a certification that signals you’re ready for professional work.

Why choose Dollhouse? Our trainers are active salon owners who know what clients ask for right now. They’ll share tips on managing appointment time, handling extension after‑care questions, and upselling related services like colour or deep conditioning.
