Curated Education for Modern Stylists
Extensions aren’t one-size-fits-all, and your education shouldn’t be either. At Top Knot Extensions, we offer a collection of focused, hands-on classes designed to give you options. Learn multiple methods at your own pace, expand your service menu, and refine your craft with techniques that match the needs of your clients.
Each class is built to feel intentional, elevated, and relevant, so you stay ahead of trends and set yourself apart as the stylist clients trust for extensions.
