North American Hairstyling Awards, one of the most prestigious celebrations.

Every year, we anticipate the Spring season – not entirely because of the weather but because that’s when the NAHA’s announce their finalists!

In 2017, with an astounding 25,630 votes, we made it into the finals and competed against many talented artists in the Peoples Choice Awards category. On the night of the award ceremony, there was a live voting session for the final winner – the one who takes it all.

It was with great pleasure and complete surprise that Blushes took the winning spot!

We truly appreciate everybody who took the time out of their day to vote for us and helped us achieve our dream of winning a NAHA award.

With Spring approaching, it’s time for a fresh updated look!

As cap highlights are slowly making a return, colouring your hair or having any chemical services can be harsh on your hair. Luckily, Blushes is carrying a product that will help keep your hair in better shape! We’re introducing Smartbond by L’Oreal.

Bond strengthening system for colour and lighteners

Smartbond is a unique system that protects and strengthens the hair during any chemical service.

The system consists of three components. The first two (2) steps are done at the salon by your hairdresser, and the third (3rd) step is done at home.

How to find out if Smartbond is right for you?

If your hair type falls under any of these categories: damaged hair, sensitized hair, dull hair, coloured, highlighted, bleached – don’t be shy to bring it up with your hairdresser!
