"Next level extensions was truly next level! As a great lengths thermal and cold fusion artist I found myself always asking “well what next?” Extension certifications are amazing but there are so many unanswered questions when us stylist return to the salon. Lyndsay absolutely answered all of them! From color matching to consultation and cutting extensions, she dropped some serious knowledge on her students. Also, this woman KNOWS social media and her savvy with it poured out of her. Her ability to relate and be vulnerable with her students is something to be admired. I left class smarter, stronger, and more inspired. I feel so lucky to have had to opportunity to attend this class and I cannot what to see what she comes up with next. Thank you Lyndsay!"
