Award Winning Hair Extension Education
Become a Certified Hair Extension Specialist
Transform your craft and elevate your career with Australia’s award-winning Yovanka Loria Education. Deliver luxury, custom, natural results with our signature Micro-Tied Wefts — where hand-tied precision meets machine-weft strength. For stylists done with the mainstream rulebook — we’re rewriting the standard for those who want more.
This is more than technique — it’s mastery. You’ll learn seamless installation and the business strategies that builds connection, reputation, retention, and revenue. If you’re ready to raise the bar, join Yovanka Loria Education and become a Certified Hair Extension Expert.
There are clients who want more than just an install — they want an artist who truly cares and knows how to create a customised experience from start to finish. Too often, extensions fall short — poor blending, mismatched textures, and zero attention to detail (especially for wavy or curly hair). It’s time to change that.
If you’re ready to attract clients who value quality and want something different, spend a day with Yovanka or one of our YL Educators. Learn the YL Hidden Bead Method and experience a hairline that’s all class — no BS.
THE YL DIFFERENCE
When you stop chasing shortcuts and start building something that lasts, everything changes. YL isn’t about cutting corners — it’s about raising the bar and leading with integrity.
We were built for stylists who are tired of being sold the same story — “premium” hair that tangles, sheds, or shows up nothing like promised. You deserve better.
We’re a hairline that puts stylists first, not profit. Because when systems, quality, and education align — you don’t just do great hair; you create high-value experiences that attract the right clients and sustain your success long-term.
At YL, custom is the standard. Your clients shouldn’t be ordering their own hair online, and you shouldn’t be discounting your expertise. Learn to market yourself with confidence, stand in your value, and attract clients who match your energy and your standards.
WHAT YOUR EXTENSIONS BUSINESS SHOULD LOOK LIKE
➝ Attracting clients who value your expertise — not price shoppers. Clients who seek quality, experience, and happily invest in it.
➝ Building a niche that sets you apart — offering what most stylists don’t. You master all textures, colour with ease, and deliver results clients rave about.
➝ Creating effortless installs every time — no more guessing with colour matching, texture blending, or placement. Education turns it into second nature.
➝ Working smarter, not harder — when your technique is solid and branding is clear, you attract aligned clients instead of chasing them. No burnout. No undercharging. Just work that lights you up again.
➝ And if we’re honest — tired of makeovers that still miss the mark? When texture’s off, colouring feels like a gamble, and hair quality keeps letting you down — it’s more than frustrating, it’s risky for your reputation.
