Message from Ted Gibson Salon |
A minimalist space for men and women to escape the rush of city life, ted gibson salon leaves its guests feel refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated with its chic, yet unpretentious vibe. Behind this modern and discreet beauty haven is the influential and gifted duo of Ted Gibson and Jason Backe, whose work can be seen on the runways of Dolce and Gabana, Prada and Chanel, on multi-million dollar ad campaigns for Redken, L’Oreal and Garnier and, of course, on the most recognized faces in the world such as Angelina Jolie, Renee Zellweger, Debra Messing, Gabrielle Union, Anne Hathaway, Demi Moore, Claire Danes, Joy Bryant, and Elettra Rossellini.
Ted Gibson has an intuitive, almost magical way of manipulating hair and his warm, engaging personality trickles down to the salon’s famously down-to earth atmosphere. Through his daily interactions styling celebrities and models for iconic magazines like Vogue, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Vanity Fair, Marie Claire, and Allure, Ted is tuned into what women want. “I really listen to what they have to say,” says Ted. “I cut hair with sensibility and ease so that my clients leave with a refreshed style without necessarily feeling like they’ve had all their hair cut off.”
Jason Backe, the master colorist, began his career educating stylists, salon owners and managers for Aveda. Today, Jason guides and motivates his own staff and his technique centers on natural looking hair color, though he enjoys creating bold or even punk color for clients who so desire. “Whether I’m simply enhancing what my client has, or completely changing the color, I pay attention to the smallest details, sometimes even fooling them into believing it’s their natural color.”
