The New Zealand Association of Registered Hairdressers Inc. is the umbrella organisation for 15 Regional Associations run by hairdressers for hairdressers, and is the only organisation in New Zealand that is truly representative of the needs of hairdressers in business today.
The Association was set up to give support to salon owners and employers of hairdressing apprentices. It also promotes high industry standards and ideals and gives hairdressers the opportunity to show their creative and commercial skills in a competitive environment through regional and national hairdressing awards.
The Association’s aim is to help members with advice on the myriad of issues surrounding those in business today, with information to help deal with legal, insurance and employment issues as well as with the everyday problems that are encountered.
Membership is open primarily to Salon Owners and Salon Managers, with secondary membership available to a range of other people involved in the hairdressing industry. Salon owner members are either -
- Qualified hairdressers with a Certificate of Registration (issued through the NZARH)
- Non-hairdressers who must employ at least one qualified hairdresser who holds a current Practicing Certificate.
Belonging to the Association enables members to network with many of the most successful hairdressers in New Zealand. In today’s business world, every business needs good professional support and advice if it is to succeed. |
