I didn’t create The Last Bead Method because I thought the industry needed another technique. Honestly, it was created by accident. Then I realized it was actually something worth sharing.
After taking so many classes, certifications, and monthly educational memberships, I picked up little pieces and tips here and there. I started experimenting. Every install, every move-up, and every client taught me something. I’d tweak one little thing, test it, tweak it again, and over time, those little changes turned into a completely different way of installing extensions.
But one thing never stopped driving me crazy… THE BEADS.
If only we could get rid of them.
Since we can’t… we can at least install them last.
Why? Because I was tired of my corners not lining up perfectly. I was tired of over-direction, unnecessary tension, and stitches pulling beaded hair in directions it didn’t naturally want to fall. I wanted to stitch hair in its true, natural fall with sections created by growth patterns… not some made-up measurement.
The result? It’s seamless, flat, comfortable, and discreet.
A method didn’t solve problems for me or my clients, so I did. I spent years figuring out what worked and what didn’t. I lost sleep over this for years. Now I’m sharing every tip with you, so you don’t have to spend the same time and money I did.
I teach this method because I know how much it changed my business, my confidence, and the experience my clients have in my chair. If it can do the same for another stylist, then every late night of trial and error was worth it.
