ARE SAYING

“Best experience I’ve had”

I was always so nervous about doing extensions. I tried multiple times and couldn't get it down/felt really overwhelmed. I also just couldn't find a brand that I LOVED so it wasn't a priority for me to learn. When I heard Kristi was launching Drop Dead, I scheduled a one on one to learn about how to install extensions & learn more about the brand. I am so happy I did that. Kristi took her time with me on our one on one and was so patient and kind. I don't know how she did it but somehow I was finally able to get it down and I didn't get overwhelmed at all. She encouraged me the whole time and still does, I'm so grateful to have done that training with her!

“Answered every question with an in-depth explanation"

I got trained and certified in the Drop Dead method for my second extension certification, and I loved every minute of it! Kristi was incredibly patient, answered every question with in depth explaination, and the small group size of our training made the hands on help fun and easy! The passion and love that goes into Drop Dead is so evident in everything Eric and Kristi do, I could not recommend the brand or education more for stylists wanting to up their game.

“I immediately found success”

Kristi is an amazing, informative educator who doesn’t miss a beat. The team makes sure you know everything you could possibly know about the actual hair as well. She was incredibly patient & paid so much attention to every detail/step along the way of learning the Drop Dead Method. Kristi taught us how to install and color extensions, setting us up for the “how to’s” behind the chair. I was easily able to take home the knowledge she shared with us & immediately find success with a new extension method. Absolutely recommend.

"My hourly rate went from $125/hr to $650/hr with extensions installs."

As a creative colorist, parts of my journey into extensions have been extremely unexpected. What I did not expect was the joy it brought me, the amount of creativity I was able to further exhibit and the client lives I am able to change through transformations.

Apart from that, I am able to 5x my earnings behind the chair through extensions. Although I price by packages, essentially my hourly earnings rate goes from approximately $125/hr to $650/hr when I am doing an extension install. Extensions add more than $100,000 to my bottom line each year in my behind the chair business. I will show you how to do the same, if not more.

I am so thrilled for you to experience Drop Deaducation and the Drop Dead Method, developed in partnership with Drop Dead Lead educator, Nyki Nechiporenko. I’ve been fortunate enough to be a platform artist and meet lots of incredible artists and stylists, and I have never seen a more forward thinking extensionist than Nyki.We can’t wait to hear about your future success!
