Around 1,500 member, the Sri Lanka Association of Hairdressers And Beauticians (SLAHAB) was established in 1996 through the endeavors of Nayana with the aim of elevating the profession of hairdressing in Sri Lanka to an international level.

Nayana conducted a training at a session of a live hair cutting demonstration at Karachi, Pakistan in early 2007. The program was sponsored by a company in collaboration with Pakistan Hair and Beauty Association (PHABA) and Sri Lanka's SLAHAB.
