Miami, FL – Since 2017, Angelina – European Hair Extensions, founded by beauty entrepreneur Angelina Anikina, has emerged as a sought-after destination for women looking for a deeply personalized hair extension experience. More than a beauty service, the Miami-based atelier has become a space known for its commitment to client care, confidence-building, and bespoke luxury.
Angelina’s studio specializes in helping women experiencing hair changes due to life stages and health shifts, such as postpartum transitions, aging, and wellness-related hair thinning. With a client base of over 1,500 women across the U.S., the studio is recognized for its careful craftsmanship and emotionally supportive environment. From first-time clients to those who have been through challenging hair journeys, Angelina’s hands-on approach has earned her a reputation as a trusted and compassionate expert.
What truly sets Angelina apart is her dedication to creating a thoughtful, private experience tailored to each client’s unique hair condition. “Hair is deeply emotional,” Anikina shares. “I’ve worked with women navigating everything from postpartum to recovery journeys. What we do isn’t just aesthetic—it’s personal.” For many women, the process of undergoing a hair transformation is not just about appearance but about regaining confidence and feeling comfortable in their own skin. Angelina’s personalized service fosters a sense of empowerment, helping women navigate their hair journeys with ease and comfort.
Using only 100% unprocessed European Slavic hair that is ethically sourced, Angelina’s custom extensions are designed for durability and compatibility with sensitive scalps. Her one-on-one approach—serving just one to two clients daily—ensures each person receives focused care, with meticulous attention to details like color matching and bead sizing. This bespoke process allows clients to enjoy long-lasting results with extensions that not only enhance their natural hair but also blend seamlessly, ensuring that they feel as natural as possible.
Angelina’s signature application technique is known for its lightweight and seamless finish, a method developed with comfort and hair health in mind. Many clients seek her out after being told their hair is too fine or fragile for extensions. Her work is tailored specifically for those who need a gentle, adaptable solution that respects the condition of their natural hair. Unlike other methods, which can sometimes cause damage or discomfort, Angelina’s extensions are designed to be lightweight and supportive, creating a flawless, natural look without compromising the health of the hair or scalp.

Beyond her salon, Angelina is also a dedicated mentor to beauty professionals across the country. Her in-person training program is centered on empowering others to build sustainable, high-end brands rooted in quality and client relationships. Her philosophy emphasizes experience over volume, encouraging professionals to offer premium service models. This approach has gained traction in the beauty industry as more professionals seek to differentiate themselves with a focus on quality over quantity.
“I don’t just teach hair extensions,” says Anikina. “I work with stylists to develop signature services that reflect their values and create long-term success through quality and trust.” Her mentorship program focuses on mindful business-building without pressure to rely on social media or high-volume scheduling. In a world where social media fame and fast-paced trends often take center stage, Angelina’s approach offers an alternative path to building a career based on integrity and meaningful client connections.
A defining aspect of Angelina’s work is her belief in mindful hair extension use. She emphasizes that extensions can complement natural hair journeys, providing an option for those in transition. Her approach encourages clients to explore temporary solutions that support their overall confidence and appearance. By offering a tailored service for clients seeking something temporary or transitional, Angelina ensures that her clients have options that don’t feel forced or permanent but are instead a way to enhance their natural beauty and self-esteem.
Angelina’s story is one of thoughtful growth—starting her business independently in 2017 and evolving it into a high-touch, nationally recognized practice. Her salon and mentorship initiatives reflect a deeper movement in the beauty industry: one that prioritizes care, connection, and professionalism. As the industry continues to evolve, Angelina remains committed to her clients and the art of hair care, always seeking ways to improve and refine her approach to both extensions and education.
