Paul Mitchell Schools Announce 3RD Annual Free Hugs Day
An army of 16.500 Future Professionals will take to the streets on September 21, 2011, when the nationwide network of Paul Mitchell cosmetology schools holds its third annual Free Hugs Day, with simultaneous events throughout the continental United States and Hawaii.
Inspired by the Sick Puppies YouTube music video about Juan Mann’s popular Free Hugs campaign, the Paul Mitchell Schools decided to hold their own Free Hugs Days, reaching out in their local communities to spread their positive message through a simple little hug.
“As members of the beauty industry, we’re in the business of helping people look beautiful,” said Paul Mitchell Schools Dean and Cofounder Winn Claybaugh. “More important, it’s part of our ‘be nice’ culture to help people feel beautiful. Our Free Hugs campaign is just one of the many ways our Future Professionals show their passion and compassion in their local communities.”
Dressed in their signature black outfits, carrying handmade “Free Hugs” signs, and naturally sporting fabulous styles, Future Professionals from the network’s 100 schools will head for plazas, parks, and other popular spots to offer hugs and make people’s day. Events for day and night school students will occur simultaneously in every time zone throughout the country:
Hawaii time: 9 a.m. (day school), 3:30 p.m. (night school)
Mountain time: 12 noon (day school), 6:30 p.m. (night school)
Central time: 1 p.m. (day school), 7:30 p.m. (night school)
Eastern time: 2 p.m. (day school), 8:30 p.m. (night school)
Paul Mitchell artists, educators, top executives, and superstars will join the Future Professionals at Free Hugs locations in their areas.
