Kim Gilbert

Over the course of my 10+ years in the hair world, my heart has always been for people with fine and thin hair, but over the last few years that passion has led me into researching and studying from a scientific lens. ⁣
⁣
My journey has led me to this path where I am now blending together the art of extensions with the scientific data, to create and teach from a place of true knowledge, understanding, and integrity. ⁣
⁣
My intention for being present on Facebook again is to leave all of the hair stylist mumbo jumbo on Instagram, and be able to connect directly with YOU- the clients. ⁣
⁣
Although I am a multi-passionate educator, I do maintain a handful of select clients that are a big part of my research and education process. ⁣
⁣
My schedule has opened up to allow me to bring on 1-2 more clients before the holidays.⁣
⁣
If you struggle with thinning and hair loss, medical conditions, bad past salon experiences… or all of the above, I would love to chat with you and see if we are a good fit. ⁣
⁣
Please reach out via DM and we can talk more about that opportunity.⁣
⁣
It is VERY important to me that I always remain behind the chair working directly with clients. What is all of this for without the most important piece… YOU!⁣
⁣
Thank you for continuing to be part of my journey over the years. We have accomplished and grown so much, and somehow I still feel like I am just getting started. ⁣
⁣
Even if you are not a current client, you can still participate and share your feedback to help me with my research! I will be sharing some polls, questions, and surveys as they come up. I would greatly appreciate your support in that regard. ⁣
⁣
There is very little information out there regarding hair loss solutions (outside of companies selling “miracle cures”) and the topic of hair loss and thinning has so many variables... especially for women. ⁣
⁣
I know that together, we will change that for the better!🤍

My, how time flies! I can’t believe it’s been over 2.5 years since I have been present on Facebook. Let’s do a quick run-through to catch up! ⁣
⁣
My love and passion for working with clients considered "high risk” has taken me on quite the journey over the past few years.⁣

-I worked with an extension education company ⁣
-grew my account on Instagram as an extension educator⁣
-became an independent educator ⁣
-filmed online education for the first time⁣
-transitioned my salon from booth rent into a studio and education space ⁣
-expanded my support team ⁣
-conducted research through client case studies⁣
-created my own approach to extensions for clients considered to be “high risk”⁣
⁣
Behind the scenes we are currently in the process of creating our own education courses for hair extension stylists who want to work with risky clients, but need the training to be fully confident in that venture. Our goal is to launch by the end of this year or early next year! ⁣
⁣
I’ll be sharing another update soon! Thanks for being here.🤍

I’m going to be 100% honest: this is a rare occurrence but it does happen under special circumstances like: ⁣
•Going from super short to mermaid ⁣
•Fine hair that can’t handle the weight of the amount of hair you are wanting on 2 rows so it needs to be distributed to 3 rows ⁣
(𝘦𝘹: 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦 /𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘳 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝟸𝟸’𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳)⁣
•If you have 2 rows but still struggle with super short layers on the top of your head from breakage or a bad haircut... we can add in a 3rd row to break up the baby layers and blend in to match your length. ⁣

Ok... I am pretty sure that covers everything🤔 ⁣

Is there something that I didn’t mention but you’re still curious about? ⁣
