“Miami is played out,” Gibson says. “Fort Lauderdale is a hot spot, the next ‘it’ place. There’s no more spring break, the beaches are beautiful, the water is exquisite and there are no other salons on the beach, not in any of the luxury hotels. I’m sure I’ll start a trend. We’re trendsetters at Ted Gibson.”

For a few days each month, Gibson will offer transformative makeover sessions similar to what he does on the fashion reality show What Not to Wear for a hair-raising $950 for a wash, cut and blow dry (tip not included).

“It is the most expensive haircut in the world, but I do my own shampoos,” Gibson quips.

“For $950, I bring that same sensibility as when I work with Angelina Jolie, Debra Messing, Ashley Greene and Christina Ricci, to name a few.”

When Gibson isn’t name dropping and opening salons in posh hotels, he’s interpreting hair trends on the runways and for clients in his chair at his Flatiron salon in New York and now in Fort Lauderdale. A thousand dollars gets you the same cutting-edge looks you see on Jennifer Aniston and other bold-face names.

“The hot trend now is the demi-bob, like on Brooklyn Decker, Tyra Banks and Jennifer Aniston,” he says. “It’s very versatile because it’s not extra long, it fits with the clothes and you can wear bangs with it.”

Gibson says he is excited about the new digs on the beach. “I’m in love with the weather and the people. It makes sense to bring New York sensibility and beauty to South Florida. I’ve always loved this part of the world.”
