Feeling like you were let down by your big extension brand education? Let me help you fill in the missing pieces.

I'm Lesley D. Flanagan, Master Extensionist, owner of Salon 1827, and the founder of Sew Extra™ Coaching & Education. With more than two decades of experience and 17 extension certifications, I've built a reputation for creating seamless, natural-looking transformations using high-end methods like hidden beaded rows, keratin bonds, and tape-ins. Every method I offer is tailored to fit my clients' lifestyles and long-term goals.

But my journey didn't start glamorous. I, like you, struggled at first to build a high-end business and then realized it was because not enough people knew I existed and what I had to offer. I had good skills and excellent extension training, but it wasn't until I started applying my marketing knowledge that I began to see results. In the past I had good months, but they weren't consistent. I started tracking and analyzing the data in my business using the system I created. I've had consistent.  Today, I consistently bring in over $18,000 a month and easily book clients in the $2,000 to $5,000 range. That growth came from refining my craft, learning how to market myself with confidence, and building a business that aligned with my values instead of draining my energy.

As a Coach and Educator,  I now help other stylists do the same. Inside the Sew Extra™ Extension Intensive, I teach stylists in small towns and saturated markets how to level up their marketing skills to attract premium clients and build sustainable six-figure businesses behind the chair.
