Tracey Hughes and education go hand-in-hand. A long-time hairstylist, entrepreneur and educator, Hughes’ approach is driven by transformation through education. Now, an icon in the industry, she’s using her platform to share her knowledge with others. This year, for the first time ever, Hughes will be bringing her Leading Ladies program to the International Beauty Show New York.
