National Association of Screen Make-up Artists and Hairdressers
NASMAH is a professional, social and educational organisation who encourage the highest standards in the craft of media hair and make-up, and work hard to promote our members.
History
In 1996, six film and television make-up artists invited 50 of the top make-up artists and hairdressers in the industry to a meeting about setting up an association for hairdressing and make-up professionals. From this meeting NASMAH was born and a constitution drawn up.
Formed
NASMAH was formed to maintain the high standards of artistry achieved in previous years and to promote the profile of hair and make-up professionals in the industry.
In 2009, NASMAH was invited to join the Cine Guilds of Great Britain.
Cine Guilds brings together the highest quality of craft people in the British film industry and consists of eight member associations, each of which operates in a specific department in the film industry:
film editors (GBFTE)
sound techs (AMPS)
film designers (BFDG)
cinematographers (BSC)
camera team (GBCT)
location managers (GLM)
stunt co-ordinators (GSAC)
make-up and hair (NASMAH)
NASMAH gets invited to various make-up and industry-related events, masterclasses and award ceremonies where we represent our craft, our members and the association

Their aims and objectives are:
To maintain the high standards of artistry achieved over the past years;
To raise the member's profile within the industry;
To encourage and promote further training for its members and training generally throughout the industry;
To affiliate itself to other associations in order to further the advancement of its members; and
To be non-political and nationwide. Please note: NASMAH is not a union.
Members
I think NASMAH is a very unique organisation which helps talented people get their foot in the door to becoming a successful makeup artist/hairdresser.
