BALAYAR ACADEMY & TRAINING
Why was BALAYAR Academy founded?
BALAYAR Academy was founded in response to a clear market need. Many training courses show you a technique, but don't teach you how to truly master it in practice.
For years, we searched for courses with that level of precision and could barely find them in Europe. That's why we developed our own training methodology where technique, insight, and control come together.
What makes BALAYAR trainings different from other extension trainings?
At BALAYAR, you don't just learn how to perform a technique, but more importantly, when to apply which technique.
Every client has a different hair structure, scalp, and challenge. In our training sessions, you'll learn to work with a complete system, so you can choose the right solution for every client.
What training courses does BALAYAR Academy offer?
BALAYAR Academy offers specialized training within the entire AIR system:
• Airweft Technique
• HD Method (Hair Delicate)
• Masterclass Toppers & Hairpieces
• Masterclass Curls Extensions & Hairpieces
• Masterclass AIRLoops
Each training builds upon technique, insight, and strategic application in the salon.
Who are the trainings for?
Our trainings are designed for professional hairdressers and salons who want to deepen their expertise and elevate their salon to a higher level.
Do I need experience with extensions?
Basic experience with hair extensions is recommended, but more important is the motivation to genuinely want to master precision and technique.
What do I learn during the Airweft training?
During the training, you will learn, among other things:
• To work up to 2× flatter than traditional invisible methods
• To place micro-rings without excessive tension
• To seamlessly finish the sides completely
• To work up to 30% faster without loss of quality
• To protect natural hair during placement
• To choose the right color, texture, and attachment per client
Do I get a certificate after the training?
Yes. After the training, you will take a practical exam on a model. Upon successful completion, you will receive an official BALAYAR certificate.
BALAYAR AirSystems®
What is BALAYAR Invisible AirSystem®?
AirSystem® is a modular extensions ecosystem in which different solutions work together perfectly.
The system consists of:
• AirWeft®
• AirLoop®
• AirClipIn®
• AirTopper®
• Hairpieces
• Wigs
With this, a salon can create a suitable solution for almost every hair problem.
Why is a system better than a single technique?
Because clients have different needs.
Fine hair, curls, thinning crowns or temporary solutions all require a different approach.
With a system, you can combine techniques without compromising on colour, texture or comfort.
Are all systems available in the same colours?
Yes. All AirSystems® are available in 21 MicroBlend® colours, allowing you to combine systems without colour variation.
What hair textures are available?
BALAYAR offers 8 different hair textures, from subtle waves to defined curls.
BALAYAR AirWeft® TECHNOLOGY
Why was the AirWeft® technique developed?
The traditional invisible techniques were a good basis, but still had limitations.
We often saw the same problems recurring in salons, such as tension, visible sides, or wefts that weren't completely flat.
Therefore, we developed a technique that solves these issues.
What are the benefits of the AirWeft® technique?
The AirWeft® technique offers several improvements:
• Up to 2× flatter result
• New folding technique without cutting the weft
• Improved sewing technique to prevent the weft from coming undone
• Seamless sides that remain flat
• Up to 30% time savings per treatment
Does the AirWeft® technique also work on fine hair?
Yes. The AirWeft® technique was developed to be as flat as possible, making it suitable for clients with finer hair.
How many salons are already using the Airweft® technique?
More than 200 professional salons now work daily with the AirWeft® technique.
BALAYAR MicroBlend® COLORS & TEXTURES
What are MicroBlend® colors?
MicroBlend® colors are complex color compositions in which multiple nuances come together.
This ensures that the extensions blend naturally with real hair, without harsh color blocks.
Why are there so many structures available?
Because not every woman has straight hair.
BALAYAR offers multiple textures so that the movement of the hair can perfectly match natural hair.
Can I combine different structures?
Yes. Within AirSystems®, you can combine different structures as long as they match the client's natural hair.
BALAYAR Haircare
Why did BALAYAR develop its own haircare line?
Perfect extensions and hairpieces will only remain beautiful if they are properly cared for.
That's why we developed a haircare line that protects both the scalp and hair.
What makes BALAYAR Haircare unique?
Our haircare combines professional ingredients with a pH-balanced formula.
Key benefits:
• pH 5.5 formula for a healthy scalp
• Sulfate-free yet richly lathering shampoo
• Shea butter and argan oil for intense repair
• Keratin and amino acids for strengthening
• Heat protection up to 230°C
• Vegan and free from microplastics
Is the haircare suitable for extensions?
Yes. The products are developed for natural hair, extensions and wigs.
Why is pH 5.5 important for the scalp?
The natural acidity of the scalp is around pH 5–5.5.
When products have a higher pH, the scalp can become unbalanced, which can lead to irritation, dryness, and faster color fading.
The BALAYAR Haircare line respects this natural balance and supports a healthy scalp and strong hair.
Why does the shampoo lather even though it's sulfate-free?
Many sulfate-free shampoos don't clean effectively and hardly lather at all.
BALAYAR Shea Butter Shampoo uses gentle cleansing ingredients that still create a rich and creamy lather. This ensures the hair is thoroughly cleansed without drying it out.
Is BALAYAR Haircare suitable for extensions?
Yes. The formula is designed to optimally care for natural hair, extensions, and hairpieces.
The products hydrate the hair without affecting the bonds or structure of extensions.
Is the haircare also suitable for colored hair?
Absolutely. The pH-balanced formula helps to keep the hair cuticles closed, which preserves colour pigment longer.
Can BALAYAR Haircare help with a dry or sensitive scalp?
Yes. The combination of shea butter, keratin, and amino acids helps to soothe and hydrate the scalp. Many salons observe that clients with a dry or sensitive scalp quickly experience improvement.
How often should a client use the haircare product?
We advise customers to wash their hair 2 to 3 times a week with BALAYAR shampoo and conditioner for optimal care.
Is the haircare suitable for daily use?
Yes. The gentle formula makes the products suitable for regular use without weighing down the hair.
What makes BALAYAR Haircare different from other salon products?
BALAYAR Haircare has been developed as an extension of professional hair transformations.
The products are specially formulated to both extend the life of extensions and protect the health of natural hair.
How can a salon best sell haircare to customers?
The best way is to position haircare as part of the treatment.
When clients invest in extensions or volume solutions, they also want to know how to perfectly maintain the result at home.
What happens if customers use the wrong products?
Many standard shampoos contain harsh cleansers that dry out the hair structure or cause color to fade faster.
Professional haircare helps prevent this and ensures that the result lasts longer.
Why is pH 5.5 important for the scalp?
The natural acidity of the scalp is around pH 5–5.5.
When products have a higher pH, the scalp can become unbalanced, which can lead to irritation, dryness, and faster color fading.
The BALAYAR Haircare line respects this natural balance and supports a healthy scalp and strong hair.

If you want I can also
- create a DM FAQ (response templates for Instagram)

The latter greatly helps to expedite salons' decisions to take training.
BALAYAR HAARSTUKJES
Which clients are top performers suitable for?
Toppers are ideal for clients with:
• thinning hair on top
• balding crown
• volume loss at the parting
• light hair thinning
• clients who do not need full extensions
Are toppers visible?
When the topper is correctly placed and the right colour and structure are chosen, the topper completely disappears into the natural hair.
How long does a mattress topper last?
This depends on the attachment method and the client's use.
Most toppers are worn and removed daily, but can also be worn for extended periods depending on the method.
Do toppers damage natural hair?
Because we believe that customers referred to Balayar salons via the Salon Locator should have certainty.
When a salon works with BALAYAR, the customer must be sure that work is performed here according to the highest standards and that the techniques used are perfect.

- or a salon onboarding FAQ document that new Pro salons receive immediately.

The size is determined by the zone where volume or coverage is needed.
• Mini → subtle volume at parting or bangs
• Medium → slight thinning on top
• Large → more volume or larger zone
• Mono Lace → maximum coverage on top to forehead
Can toppers be combined with extensions?
Yes. Toppers can be perfectly combined with:
• AIR Clip-ins
• AIR Wefts
This allows a salon to create a completely personalised hair solution.
How long does a mattress topper last?
With proper maintenance, a topper can last several months to a year, depending on usage and care.
Why do toppers have a delivery time?
Because many toppers are custom-made based on colour, texture, and length. This allows us to create a much more accurate match.
Can a customer with curly hair also wear a topper?
Yes. BALAYAR toppers are available in multiple textures, which also makes them suitable for clients with curly hair.
How does a customer maintain a mattress topper?
Maintenance is comparable to extensions:
• use gentle shampoo
• use conditioner and mask
• heat protection during styling
• brush carefully

Can BALAYAR Airwefts® be cut?
Yes. BALAYAR AirWefts® are designed to be cut without fraying.
In practice, the BALAYAR AirWeft® technique usually involves a folding technique because it:
- lays flatter
- is faster
- keeps the weft stronger
This results in an even more natural look.
How many Airwefts® are typically needed for a treatment?
This depends on the desired result and the thickness of the natural hair.
On average, a salon uses:
- 50 grams can be used for 1 weft for volume

During the training, salons learn exactly how to determine the correct number of wefts. See the Academy page for more information.

• lengths
• colours

to create a fully personalised hair transformation.

The set includes:
- 2 wefts of 20 cm
- 2 wefts of 15 cm
- 2 wefts of 10 cm
- 2 wefts of 6 cm
Together, these wefts form a complete set of 100 grams of hair.
When do you use a volume lash and when a full set?
This depends on the client's wishes.
- Volume track → add extra volume
- Full set → create both length and volume

CARE FOR BALAYAGE EXTENSIONS, CLIP-INS AND TOPPERS
How do I best care for BALAYAR extensions?
Proper care is essential to maintain the quality and lifespan of extensions.
We advise clients to:
- use the BALAYAR Haircare line
- brush hair gently
- always use heat protection
- avoid treating hair too roughly
Professional haircare helps keep hair soft, shiny, and healthy.
Why is BALAYAR Haircare important for extensions?
BALAYAR Haircare has been specially developed to protect both natural hair and extensions.
The formula helps to:
- keep the scalp balanced
- hydrate the hair
- maintain color longer
- protect the hair fiber
This ensures the results last longer.
How often should I wash BALAYAR extensions?
For the best quality and longevity, we recommend washing BALAYAR extensions approximately once a week.
Washing too often can dry out the hair fiber, because extensions – unlike natural hair – do not receive natural nourishment from the scalp.
Between washes, you can easily keep your hair fresh with dry shampoo.
This helps to:
- absorb excess sebum at the roots
- keep hair smelling fresh
- maintain volume
How do I properly wash my BALAYAR extensions?
When washing BALAYAR extensions, it's important to handle the hair gently and carefully.
Step-by-step advice:
- First, gently brush the hair before washing.
- Use a mild shampoo, such as the BALAYAR Shea Butter Shampoo.
- Massage the shampoo mainly onto the scalp and roots.
- Allow the lather to gently run through the lengths without rubbing.
This prevents the hair from tangling.
Why should you always use conditioner with extensions?
After washing, it is important to moisturize your hair.
Always use a professional conditioner, such as BALAYAR Conditioner, to:
- keep hair soft
- close the hair cuticles
- prevent tangles
Apply conditioner only to the lengths and ends, not to the roots.
How do I use the BALAYAR Hair Mask for the best results?
For optimal care, we recommend regular use of the BALAYAR Hair Mask.
Apply the mask from the ears downwards and leave it on for approximately 10 minutes.
The mask helps to:
- intensely hydrate the hair
- restore shine and softness
- nourish the hair fiber
This helps BALAYAR extensions maintain their vibrant shine and luxurious appearance.
Why is good care so important for BALAYAR extensions?
BALAYAR extensions are made from high-quality virgin human hair and, with proper maintenance, can last 12 to 18 months.
By washing, moisturizing, and protecting the hair correctly, the extensions will remain:
- soft
- shiny
- natural-looking
This way, you can enjoy the results for as long as possible.
How should I brush extensions?
Extensions must be brushed carefully with a suitable brush.
Tips:
- always start at the bottom
- work slowly upwards
- support the roots while brushing
This prevents unnecessary tension on the natural hair.
Can extensions be styled with heat?
Yes. BALAYAR extensions can be styled with:
- hair dryer
- curling iron
- straightener
Always use a heat protectant, such as the BALAYAR Heat Protection Spray.
Can heat damage extensions?
Excessive heat can dry out hair.
We recommend:
- not using styling tools above 180–200°C
- always applying heat protection
Can extensions discolour due to sunlight?
Prolonged exposure to strong sunlight can dry out hair or lighten its color.
We advise customers to:
- protect their hair from the sun with heat protection spray and a leave-in conditioner
- provide extra hydration to hair after sun exposure
Can extensions be damaged by chlorine or salt water?
Yes. Chlorine water and salt water can dry out the hair.
Advice:
- use a leave-in conditioner and put your hair up or braid it while swimming
- rinse your hair immediately with clean water after swimming
- then use a hydrating BALAYAR mask
Can extensions be chemically treated?
Chemical treatments such as bleaching or perming are not recommended for extensions.
These treatments can damage the hair structure.
Which products should I avoid with extensions?
We advise to avoid:
- strong protein treatments
- bond-building systems
- aggressive chemical treatments
Preferably use professional haircare that is suitable for extensions.
Can I use oil on extensions?
Yes. A light oil such as BALAYAR Argan Oil can be used to add extra shine and protection to the hair.
Apply the oil only to the:
- lengths
- ends
Avoid the roots.
How do I prevent tangles in extensions?
To prevent tangles, we recommend:
- regularly brushing your hair
- wearing your hair in a loose braid at night
- using hydrating hair care products
How should I sleep with extensions?
It is best to wear your hair at night:
- in a loose braid
- or low ponytail
to prevent friction and tangles.
How long do BALAYAR extensions last?
With good care, BALAYAR extensions can last 12-18 months, depending on the type of treatment and maintenance.
MAINTENANCE OF AirClipIns® AND AirToppers®
How do I care for clip-ins and toppers?
AirClipIns® and AirToppers® must be handled with care.
Advice:
- wash gently with Balayar shampoo
- use Balayar hydrating conditioner
- apply Balayar heat protection when styling
How often should I wash my AirClipIns®?
Since AirClipIns® are not worn daily, they need to be washed less frequently.
Typically, washing after 8–10 wears is sufficient.
How do I store AirClipIns® or AirToppers®?
Store them:
- clean
- dry
- in your BALAYAR satin storage bag
This way they will stay beautiful longer.
Can AirToppers® also tangle?
Like any hair product, toppers can tangle if not properly cared for.
Regular brushing and moisturizing helps prevent this.
Can AirToppers® be styled with heat?
Yes. Just like extensions, AirToppers® can be styled with heat, provided heat protection is used.
WARRANTY
Does BALAYAR provide a guarantee on hair and hairpieces?
Yes. We offer a 6-month manufacturer's warranty on all BALAYAR hair and hairpieces.
This warranty confirms our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and reliability.
What does the 6-month manufacturer's warranty entail?
The factory warranty means that in case of a manufacturing defect, this can be reported to us within 6 months of purchase.
Our team will carefully assess the report and, together with the salon, look for a suitable solution.
How do I submit a warranty claim?
If you believe there is a manufacturing defect, please contact our team and provide:
- a clear description of the problem
- photos or video of the product
- the order details
Our team will assess the product and work with the salon to find a suitable solution.
Why does BALAYAR offer a warranty?
Because we believe salons should be able to rely on the quality of their products.
When you work with BALAYAR, you need to be sure that you are working with professional quality you can count on.
When is the warranty valid?
The warranty is valid when:
- there is a demonstrable manufacturing defect
- the product has been used and installed correctly
- the hair has been maintained with BALAYAR Haircare products
Our haircare is specially developed to optimally protect both natural hair and extensions and hairpieces.
Why is BALAYAR Haircare required for warranty?
BALAYAR Haircare was developed to protect the quality, structure and longevity of hair.
Many standard hair products contain ingredients that:
- open the hair cuticles
- dry out the hair
- damage the structure of extensions
By using BALAYAR Haircare, hair remains in optimal condition and we can fully guarantee its quality.
What is not covered by the warranty?
The warranty expires if damage is caused by:
- use of haircare products other than BALAYAR
- use of protein or bond-building products (such as Olaplex or K18)
- chemical treatments
- improper maintenance or misuse
COLORS OF BALAYAR EXTENSIONS
Can BALAYAR extensions be dyed?
Yes. The virgin hair quality of BALAYAR is strong enough to be toned or dyed by a professional stylist.
Thanks to the high-quality hair selection, the hair can be customized to create an even more precise color match with the client's natural hair.
Which color treatments are most suitable?
For the best results, we recommend working with acidic toners.
Acidic toners are gentler on the hair and help to subtly adjust the color without damaging the hair structure.
Can I make the extensions lighter?
In most cases, we advise against bleaching extensions, as this can weaken the hair structure.
BALAYAR offers 21 MicroBlend® colors, which means the right color is usually already available without having to bleach the hair.
Can I dye extensions darker?
Yes. Extensions can be safely darkened or dyed by a professional stylist.
Why do salons often use toners with extensions?
Toners help to:
- neutralize undertones
- create a perfect color blend
- subtly adjust the color
Can all types of BALAYAR hair be colored?
Yes. Extensions, toppers, and wigs can be toned or colored, provided this is done by a professional stylist.
Does painting affect the warranty?
When hair is treated professionally, toning generally does not affect its quality.
We always recommend using BALAYAR Haircare after color treatments to provide optimal hair care
COLORS OF EXTENSIONS
Why is it not recommended to bleach extensions?
Extensions do not receive natural nourishment from the scalp like natural hair.
Bleaching can weaken the hair structure and make the hair dry or brittle.
Therefore, we always recommend working with a color that is already close to the desired shade.
Which developer should I use for extensions?
Strong developers can damage the hair fiber.
For extensions, we recommend using milder color formulas or acidic toners to keep the hair as healthy as possible.
Why should you properly check the induction time?
Extensions often absorb color pigment faster than natural hair.
Therefore, check regularly during the coloring process to prevent the hair from becoming too dark or uneven.
Why are acidic toners better for extensions?
Acidic toners work more gently and close the hair cuticles better.
This results in:
- smoother hair
- subtle color adjustments
- better protection of the hair structure
Why shouldn't bond-building products like Olaplex or K18 be used on extensions?
Bond-building products open the hair cuticles to repair natural hair.
With extensions, this can cause:
- the hair cuticles to remain open
- the hair to tangle more easily
- damage to the hair fiber
Therefore, we advise not to use these products on extensions.
Can I dye extensions while they are already installed?
This is usually not recommended.
When extensions are not yet installed, the color can be applied more evenly, and you prevent color products from coming into contact with the attachment.
Can heat affect the coloring process?
Yes. Additional heat can accelerate the coloring process but also dry out the hair.
For extensions, we recommend carrying out the coloring process at room temperature.
Why should you always do a patch test?
Each hair type reacts differently to colour.
By doing a strand test first, you can check how the hair reacts before treating the entire set.
Why is good rinsing important?
Residues from color products can damage the hair structure.
Therefore, always rinse extensions thoroughly and then use a nourishing conditioner.
What haircare should be used after coloring?
After coloring, it is important to moisturize the hair thoroughly.
We recommend using BALAYAR Haircare to keep your hair soft, shiny, and healthy.
How often can extensions be colored?
Every chemical treatment stresses the hair.
Therefore, we recommend keeping color treatments as limited as possible.
Why is it important that color and texture match well?
When the texture of the extensions does not match the natural hair, the result can look unnatural.
Therefore, BALAYAR offers multiple textures and colors to ensure a perfect match.
Why should wet hair be handled gently after coloring?
Wet hair is more fragile.
Therefore, brush hair gently, always starting at the ends before working your way up.
Why is good aftercare important for extensions?
Many problems arise from improper home care.
Always explain to clients how they should care for their extensions and what products are best for them to use.
How can I prevent most problems when coloring extensions?
The most important rules are:
- work with professional products
- use mild toners
- avoid aggressive treatments
- take good care of the hair after coloring
This way, the hair remains healthy, soft, and perfectly blended with natural hair.
