Ruiz also recommends the NAHA DVD, and adds that first time participants need to immerse themselves in the industry and NAHA experience.
Proud to stand up with his peers and win in this category, Ruiz is looking toward the future. A strong overall stylist, he'd like to break into editorial work, and begin working with a major product line as a creative director.
He'd also like to continue to expand his salons nationally, and is looking to develop his own product line at some point.
As for NAHA 19, you can bet that Ruiz will enter the competition yet again; in the meantime he is searching for the right team and making sure they are ready!
NAHA winners are chosen by a select panel of internationally renowned super stylists and top beauty editors from consumer and trade magazines. NAHA is held in conjunction with Cosmoprof North America, which is held annually in Las Vegas.
