ABOUT US
Foxtail is a thriving company specializing in 100% Virgin Remy hand-tied hair extensions.
Our founder and CEO, Lindsay Kelly, is a master hairstylist and salon owner. She has always loved doing hair since she was a little girl, and she started doing her own hair and for family and friends when she was just 5 years old.
Immediately after she graduated high school, she moved to Hawaii to live with her now-husband. And few years, they moved together to Austin, Texas, where she started beauty school to pursue her dreams of becoming a hairstylist.
She opened her own salon when she was 22 years old and ran it for 15 years before selling it off to start a smaller one where she could refocus on her clients and the Foxtail Hand-Tied Company.
When she still had the bigger salon, she taught other stylists everything she knew, including how to do hair extensions and make a lot of money doing hair.
Talking about hair extensions, she did for her clients and taught other stylists how to do different extensions, including keratin bond, tie-in, tape-in, etc.
However, she soon found that hand-tied extensions are the best of any type because of:
- How friendly it is to clients hair (even to fine hairs)
- The way it lasts longer on the clients head
- How easy it is to cover and style
- How easy it is to learn and start and most importantly,
- How in-demand it is and the revenue-growing potential it brings
However, with all the good potentials hand-tied extensions pack, Lindsay soon discovered huge business-impacting problems with big companies that manufacture them, which led her to start Foxtail Hand-Tied Company.
Profit-Eating Problems, Ethics Issues, And The Birth Of Foxtail Hand-Tied
As Lindsay started getting more and more clients coming to her salon for hand-tied extensions appointments, she started ordering and doing more and more extensions.
As she ordered more extensions and made more installations, she started noticing that:
- Because she has to order by the bundles due to the minimums most of the companies selling Remy Hand-Tied extensions, the amount of hand-tied wefts that are unused after a client appointment keeps growing and growing, which in the long run become wastes, cutting into the salon profit and hindering revenue growth.
- Due to the limited color variants on offer by the few companies who sell original 100% Remy hand-tied extensions, she’s often unable to find and get the right shades of color to mix to help clients get their desired look. So most times, she’d have to compromise, and that doesn’t go down well with clients.
- And to cap it all off, the compromise in quality, the issue of ethics in the way these big companies source their hair, and the long time you’d have to wait to get your orders delivered.
Those are the things that broke the proverbial camel’s back for Lindsay, and she had to find a solution to them.
Then Foxtail Hand-Tied Company was created in ____ to provide hairstylists and salon owners quick access to ethically sourced and affordable 100% Virgin Remy hand-tied extensions and help them unlock another source of income by equipping them and certifying them with a painless method of hand-tied extension installation.
