Alain Pereque – the legend, the NAHA winner is going to be featured on Scissorboy next week. He was declared as the winner in Contemporary Classic category during this year’s NAHA awards that concluded last week. He also won another award in the Salon Team of the Year category, which went to Salon Pure.

Alain has been in this industry for 36 years and currently works as a Master Hairdresser for Salon Pure in Montreal, Canada. He is a legendary stylist and has guided numerous other stylists during his career.

I had met Alain during the Contessa Awards last year and I’m glad he’ll be our featured stylist this week. He’ll be showing a unique cutting technique that allows you to build weight as well as build softness in the hair.

Alain will also talk about the importance of cosmetology education and continuing your learning even after leaving your school. He says, “Your hairstyling education does not end once you leave school.”

He has mentored numerous stylists during his 36 year career. And he advises young stylists to choose their mentor and learn from them for their development as a hairstylist.

Apart from winning 2 awards during NAHA 2010, some of Alain’s recent accomplishments include winning the Quebec Hairstylist during Contessa 2009 and winning the Master Stylist of the Year award during NAHA 2008.
