Every year, the North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) honors the artists who push boundaries and move the industry forward. But this year’s theme—Show Your True Colors—is more than a creative direction. It’s a declaration.
In a world that often pressures people to soften their voices, hide their uniqueness, or conform to someone else’s vision, Show Your True Colors is a rallying cry. It’s a call to take up space. To lead with authenticity. To stand out with pride.
Because in beauty, we don’t fade into the background.
We illuminate.
Why This Theme Matters Now
The beauty industry has always been a home for self-expression. It’s where identity is celebrated, stories are told through artistry, and individuality isn’t just accepted—it’s essential.
But more than ever, artists are navigating pressures to fit a mold. To play it safe. To stay small.
This theme stands in bold contrast to that.
It represents freedom in creativity, truth in identity, and the power of showing up as yourself.
NAHA Is Where the Movement Comes to Life
On June 1, 2025, the boldest night in beauty returns—and Show Your True Colors sets the tone.
Whether you’re on stage, behind the scenes, or in the audience, your presence makes a statement.
This year, we invite every beauty professional to participate in the theme in a new way—by choosing the color that reflects who they are and wearing it with purpose.
Emerald Green for the growth that fuels your journey
Sapphire Blue for the stability that grounds your craft
Aquamarine for the balance between passion and peace
Amethyst Purple for boundless creativity
Quartz Pink for playfulness and joy
Ruby Red for fiery passion and drive
Topaz Yellow for warmth and vibrant energy
