NAHA 2010 was exciting! It was an amazing night as DJ Roonie G enthralled the audience and the stylists flaunted their well deserving awards. The night was made even more special as Scissorboy was quoted by Anna Pacitto while receiving her NAHA award.

Anna is the Artistic Director for L’Oreal Professional Canada and she successfully manages Salon Pure in Montreal, Canada. She accepted NAHA 2010 award as stylists from her salon won the Salon Team of the Year award.

Anna and her team of stylists have won numerous hair awards. While Anna was speaking about how happy she was to receive the NAHA 2010 award, she mentioned that she was featured on Scissorboy.com a few weeks ago. It was so nice of Anna to mention about us that I immediately tweeted this news.

I received a lot of emails and phone calls from people, telling me that they heard about us during NAHA 2010 awards. Thank you so much guys for showing your love for Scissorboy.

It’s a coincidence that Anna who accepted Salon Team of the Year 2010 award had actually shown “Teamwork in Action” when she was featured on the Cutting Edge Hair Show.

In that episode Anna along with her team showed us how to conduct a strategy meeting. She then showed us how they create some of their signature photo shoots that create amazing looks that win awards.

Here’s a shorter version of that episode. Enjoy!
