POV: You finally try Danger Jones… and immediately wonder why you waited so long. 🤍✨

I was introduced to this color line by another stylist ( ), and I can honestly say… I’m obsessed.

As someone who loves creating customized, high-end color, I feel like this line gives me so much more control over my tonal results. Whether I’m creating a creamy blonde, soft beige, or dimensional brunette, I know exactly where the tone is going.

A few reasons it’s earned a permanent spot in my salon:
✨ Processes in as little as 3–10 minutes
✨ It’s non-progressive, so you don’t have to worry about over-depositing or it continuing to get darker while you finish applying
✨ The shine is unreal—seriously, some of the glossiest results I’ve ever created.
✨ Lasts 10–12 weeks, so your clients get beautiful, long-lasting tone

If you’re a stylist who’s been on the fence about trying Danger Jones, consider this your sign. I’ve been getting some of my favorite color results with it lately, and I don’t see myself looking back.

COLORS USED FOR THIS LOOK:

Root: 8-0 + 9-0
Ends: 10-03 🍦🍯

If you’ve been feeling stuck behind the chair lately…

Like you’ve plateaued creatively, your income has hit a ceiling, or you’re doing the same services day after day…

I’ve been there.

For a long time, I thought working harder was the answer.

Taking more clients.
Working longer days.
Squeezing one more appointment into the schedule.

But what actually changed my career wasn’t working harder…

It was investing in a skill that allowed me to solve bigger problems for my clients.

Learning keratin bond extensions wasn’t easy. In fact, it took time, patience, and a lot of practice. But every hour I invested became one of the best investments I’ve ever made in my career.

Because I wasn’t just learning how to install extensions.

I was learning how to give fine-haired clients an option they didn’t think existed.
How to create results that looked effortless.
How to customize every detail instead of relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

That’s what changed everything.

Not because it was another service on my menu…

But because it made me a better stylist.

And that’s exactly why I created K-Tips By Design.

This isn’t a class about memorizing an installation technique. It’s about learning how to think differently—from sourcing and handcrafting bonds to customization, placement, consultations, pricing, and the business systems that turn a luxury service into a thriving part of your career.

If you’ve been craving something that reignites your creativity, pushes your artistry, and helps you build a career that feels exciting again…

When someone who’s worn extensions for 10 years says this is the best installation they’ve ever had… that’s something we don’t take lightly.

At Madison Avenue, every extension service is designed around your natural hair—from matching your texture and density to creating a placement that feels lightweight, seamless, and comfortable from day one.

Because beautiful hair isn’t just about the final reveal. It’s about how it feels when you wear it every single day.

✨ No unnecessary tension.
✨ No bulky, obvious extensions.
✨ Just customized, healthy, luxury hair designed specifically for you.

Reading reviews like this reminds us exactly why we’re so passionate about what we do. Thank you for trusting us with your hair. 🤍

Fine hair doesn’t need more extension hair-It needs the right extensions. ✨

When hair is fine, fragile, or low density, the wrong method can create bulk, tension, and visibility. That’s why I love K-Tips.

Because they’re installed strand-by-strand, every bond can be customized to the client’s density, texture, growth pattern, and goals. The result? Hair that looks fuller, longer, and more luxurious without looking like extensions at all.

This transformation was created using my Designer K-Tip method—a completely customized approach focused on seamless blending, natural movement, scalp health, and long-term hair integrity.

And for the stylists watching…

If you’ve been feeling stuck, uninspired, burned out, or like you’ve hit a ceiling with your income, this could be the service that changes everything.

On August 2nd & 3rd in Salt Lake City, Utah, I’m teaching my most comprehensive K-Tip education yet. This isn’t just an installation class. You’ll learn hair sourcing, custom bond creation, density matching, color customization, consultations, placement, business strategy, and the details that separate average extension work from truly high-end, designer-level results.

Because learning a new service is great.

Learning how to become known for exceptional results is what changes careers.

Not every beautiful hair color is the right hair color. ✨

Lately I’ve been working with a new color line and I’m not even going to pretend I’m chill about it—I’m obsessed.

The dimension, reflect, and tonal control it gives me has helped create some of my favorite color work lately. But the truth is, the color line is only part of the equation.

A beautiful result isn’t just about making someone lighter, darker, cooler, or warmer. It’s about understanding which tones will make your client’s eyes brighter, their skin glowier, and their features stand out in the most flattering way possible.

When color is customized to the individual sitting in your chair, it does exactly what getting your hair done is meant to do: enhance the beauty that’s already there.

That’s one of the biggest reasons I’ve invested so heavily in color theory and color analysis. Understanding the why behind your formulation choices changes everything. Instead of just creating pretty hair, you start creating intentional results designed specifically for the person wearing them.

In my opinion, that’s what separates a good colorist from a great one. 🤍

Stylists, what’s something about color theory or color analysis that has always confused you? Drop your questions below👇 I’d love to answer them and create more educational content around what you actually want to learn.

What if just a handful of clients could completely change the way you look at your schedule?

Imagine opening your books and seeing fewer appointments… but generating more revenue.

Imagine attracting clients who value expertise, trust your recommendations, and happily invest in premium services.

Imagine offering a service so transformative that your clients plan their schedules around it, refer their friends, and stay loyal for years.

That’s the power of a luxury extension service.

Not because it’s “just another service.”

Because it positions you differently.

It creates deeper client relationships.
Higher-ticket appointments.
More loyalty.
More referrals.
More freedom.

Over the years, I’ve taught, shared, refined, tested, and continuously evolved my approach to keratin bond extensions behind the chair.

And now, I’ve brought it all together.

The systems.
The customization.
The artistry.
The details.

Everything I wish I had known when I started.

The Avenue Academy™ was created to help stylists bypass years of trial and error and develop the skills, confidence, and understanding needed to create truly high-end keratin bond transformations.

Because exceptional K-tips aren’t created by chance—they’re designed.

And the stylists who master luxury services don’t just increase their income—they change the trajectory of their careers.

This transformation was such a heart-warming one to create 🥹🙌🏻

This was wedding hair for this gorgeous girl’s upcoming wedding 💍! She is a cancer survivor and has been growing her hair back after chemo. All she wanted was to feel like herself again for her wedding! 🙌🏻

Something that matches her natural texture and color seamlessly was important to her. I spent time sourcing Virgin, Slavic extension hair that was the best fit! (Swipe to see a comparison of me holding up a bond to her hair, showing how the color and texture matches so perfectly)

From there, we installed lots of custom bonds! Strategic placement is extremely important and something that needed to be utilized this whole service 💪🏼

Katie didn’t need this hair, she looks stunning no matter the length. But there’s nothing quite like seeing someone light up because they feel like themself again ✨ That’s why I do what I do 🤭

The reason our K-Tips look so natural? We source hair the same way luxury designers source fabric. ✨

At Madison Avenue, we use rare virgin single-donor Slavic hair so the texture, density, movement, and color remain naturally cohesive from root to end. That means softer blending, more believable movement, and extensions that truly mirror natural hair.

Then, every keratin bond is handcrafted and customized specifically for your density to create an install that feels lightweight, balanced, and incredibly seamless.

This is a fully bespoke extension experience — where every detail is intentionally selected and tailored to you. No two installs are ever exactly alike because no two clients are. 🤍

The result? Hair that feels elevated, effortless, and imperceptibly blended.
