In response to the growing number of clients across the country, and around the world who are constantly requesting trusted Ktip specialists, we’ve created the Stylist Locator to connect them with reputable artists—like you—who prioritize hair health above all else. As Ester transitions from full-time BTC work, many clients who can’t make it to NYC still want the same standard of high-quality, healthy-hair-focused service. The Stylist Locator bridges that gap.

Submit Your Work via a Google Form (showing before-and-after evidence of a client’s install and removal).

Once approved, you’ll be listed so potential clients can easily find you for their Ktip needs. If you unsubscribe from @HairbyEsterEdu, you’ll be removed from the locator to ensure only stylists committed to ongoing education and healthy-hair practices remain. By joining, you’re not just gaining clients—you’re becoming part of a collective dedicated to raising the bar for Ktip services everywhere.
