Benefits Of Hair Extension Training
With the right training, you can become your own boss and build a successful career in the hair extension industry.
But why learn to fit hair extensions?
There are many reasons why hair extension training can be beneficial for your career, such as working for yourself doing something you love, learning a new skill, and the opportunity to work with some amazing people!
Introduction To Hair Extensions
Hair extensions have long been a popular staple of hair care and getting qualified to do hair extensions can be a fantastic opportunity to earn money.
There are many different kinds of hair extension, and people choose to use them for a variety of reasons. They are often a popular choice for weddings or holidays to give a volumising and lengthening effect.
Here at RiRi, we have courses to help you learn about all the best hair extension techniques, from application to styling. We pride ourselves on offering quality education to our trainees, allowing them the skills and confidence to start their own businesses.
Skills You Will Learn
All of our courses have small class sizes so that you have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get one-to-one training and help. The skills you learn will depend on the course you select, and we offer a range to suit any skill or requirement.
At the end of your course, you will be fully accredited in your chosen extension and gain experience and to start your own hair extension business.
You’ll learn how to work safely with clients’ hair, how to keep ahead of trends and change your practice to suit new demands. We’ll also teach you to identify the right extensions for different hair types and client needs and the best ways to colour match extensions.

Tape Hair Extensions
Tape hair extensions are one of the latest and most popular forms of extensions. It is a simple and quick way to add volume and length to the hair by taping the extension to the natural hair.
The ease of application, removal and reapplication is what makes this method so popular. Learning more about this type of hair extension can be a great way to build a loyal, repeat customer base.
Micro Ring Hair Extensions
Micro ring extensions are popular as they don’t require heat or glue to adhere to the hair, instead using tiny rings to connect the extension to the natural hair.
This method can take time to apply, and if not done correctly, it can result in damage to the hair. This is why it is so essential to get the best possible training and accreditation to do the work well and give your clients extensions they will adore.
Flat Track Weave
A flat track weave is the process of attaching weft to the hair and is best suited for finer hair. The process works by weaving tiny beads into the hair that should sit flat against the head, hence the name.
Like micro ring hair, this doesn’t involve glue or heat but careful sewing instead. It also requires a lot of skill to do correctly and avoid damaging the natural hair.
Blow Dry Course
Once you’ve got the extensions attached, it is a good idea to know how to style them for your clients. Knowing how to give extensions of all types a good blow out is crucial to ensure your clients are completely happy with their new hairdo.
Our expert trainer, Alison, has more than 20 years of experience in the haircare world and will be able to give you all the tips and tricks you need to give your clients the ultimate blow out.
