About New Hampshire Electrolysis Association

Association for Hair Removal Professionals in New Hampshire

Welcome to the New Hampshire Electrolysis Association (NHEA), where professionalism meets passion in the field of electrolysis. Since our establishment in 1975, we've been more than just an organization—we're a community of dedicated electrologists committed to excellence in every aspect of our craft.

As a registered non-profit since 1992, the NHEA has been a driving force in setting and upholding the highest standards of education, ethics, and professionalism for electrologists across New Hampshire. When you see the NHEA emblem, you can trust that the individual behind it is deeply committed to their profession and dedicated to providing the highest quality of care.

Our goals are simple yet profound. We strive to ensure that every electrologist, whether a seasoned veteran or just starting out, has access to the resources and support they need to excel. Through educational initiatives, ethical guidelines, and professional development opportunities, we empower our members to continually raise the bar in their practice.

But our mission doesn't stop there. At the heart of the NHEA is a genuine desire to share our knowledge and expertise with the broader community. We believe that by educating the public about the benefits of electrolysis, we can help more individuals make informed decisions about their hair removal needs.

As a member of the NHEA, you're not just joining an association—you're becoming part of a vibrant community of like-minded professionals who share your passion for electrolysis. Through networking events, seminars, and ongoing communication, we foster an environment where ideas are exchanged, friendships are formed, and professional pride is celebrated.

And as proud affiliates of the American Electrology Association (AEA), the largest international organization dedicated to our field, we're part of a global network of electrologists working together to advance our profession.
