Your First Month as a Hair Extension Fitter

The first weeks after a course decide whether the skills stick. A simple plan helps.

Week one: repeat

Practise the full sequence again on a training head: consultation questions, sectioning, fitting and removal. Write down what you forgot.

Week two: tidy your kit

Check that you have everything you need, store it properly and keep a note of what to reorder.

Week three: first supervised work

Work on a friend or family member with a more experienced person watching, if you can. Take photographs with permission.

Week four: review

Look at your photographs and notes. What took too long? What looked uneven? Fix those before taking on paying clients.
