NAHA New Faces in Beauty
In an attempt to recognize rising talent in the beauty industry, The North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) added a new category last year for 2012, the Newcomer Stylist of the Year. The category is meant to bridge the gap between Student Hairstylist of the Year and Hairstylist of the Year. This year, we invited the last year’s 2012 Newcomer of the Year finalists Sal Misseri, Ray Hornback, Nick Hemsley, Valeria Amirova and Jasmine Gibbs, to share with us their experiences after NAHA and how it changed their lives.
Countdown to NAHA
It’s the moment we have all been waiting for—the finalists for the North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) will be announced on Tuesday, April 30 at 1 p.m. EST.
