Celebrity hair stylist Ted Gibson was named spokesperson for "Beauty Changes Lives," a new initiative by The American Association of Cosmetology Schools (AACS) at the Ted Gibson Salon in Union Square, NYC yesterday. The program is focused on raising awareness of the rewards and opportunities offered by beauty and wellness centers.

Ted Gibson has joined the new campaign to help educate consumers about the myriad opportunities in the beauty and wellness industries. "Who would have thought as a beauty school graduate I'd be able to travel the world, work with A-list celebrities, open salons and mentor the next generation of hair dressers," says Gibson. "My career has allowed me to fulfill my dreams and build a beauty empire."
