Nubia Rëzo

@nubiarezo

Nubia Rëzo (@nubiarezo) is a New York-based master stylist, educator and go-to curl expert, with 40 years of experience in the hair industry. Sought after for her innovative approach to curly haircutting, Nubia possesses a strong passion and deep appreciation for curly hair care. As one of the most in-demand and highly regarded stylists and educators for curly hair worldwide, her extensive experience and pioneering approach have contributed to her long and notable career.

 

As a Colombian-born, American-raised hairdresser, Nubia trained with Goldwell, L'Oreal, Wella, Vidal Sassoon, DEVACurl, Ouidad, Aveda, Paul Sebastian and Mazella & Palmer salon educators.

 

As a certified educator for curl-centric brands like DEVACurl and Ouidad, Nubia noticed certain things were missing from the industry—education and acceptance topped that list. “I decided to specialize in working with curly hair because I wanted women to embrace their curls and have the freedom to wear their hair how they wanted,” she shared.

 

By 2011, Nubia had developed her signature Rëzo Cut. Furthering her passion for expert curl education and product knowledge, Nubia opened the Rëzo Academy in 2016 to train stylists on her cutting and coloring techniques. She began touring her in-demand masterclasses around the world in 2017 and launched the Rëzo Hair Care brand in 2018.

 

The Rëzo Cut has since taken the curly hair world by storm, helping to reignite the love of curly hair for tens of thousands of men and women worldwide. Nubia has made it her mission to travel all around the world to train stylists on her Rëzo Cut and Rëzo Lites techniques, and today, there are 2,000+ certified Rëzo stylists globally.
