Get to know the talented NAHA finalists!
Name: Silas Tsang
Salon: Blushes
Finalist Category: Haircolor
Reason I became a hairstylist: I've always been more artistic-minded, and I like to see results. With hairstyling, you are able to create a piece of art in which you are able to see your masterpiece within a couple of hours.
Best advice I ever received regarding my career in hair/beauty: You have to set goals and never lose sight of them.
Best advice I would give to a new hairstylist starting out: You must have passion for hair and the motivation to work hard. Also, be prepared to practice, practice, and practice some more.
Funniest thing that ever happened to me in a salon: It was just another ordinary day in the salon, when all of a sudden the salon started shaking. Everyone thought it was an earthquake, so we all exited the salon, including the clients, some with their hair half cut, with foils, or with perm rods. The funniest part was that it turns out that it was in fact not an earthquake, but a driver who literally backed their car into the side of the salon.
