TORONTO, Feb. 26, 2019 /CNW/ - ET Canada announced today the details of its renewed partnership with Kao Canada Inc.'s haircare brand, John Frieda®. As the brands enter a second year of collaboration in empowering women, ET Canada Host Cheryl Hickey is proudly unveiled as the national brand ambassador for the John Frieda brand. The campaign, which is now underway, features a national contest, in-store campaign promotion, and a variety of custom content pieces to be used on air and online.
"I am so proud to be working with the John Frieda team to deliver my best beauty practices to audiences while empowering women across the country," said Cheryl Hickey, Host, ET Canada.

As brand ambassador, Cheryl Hickey will star in four ET Canada-produced style videos, showcasing John Frieda products and how she uses them. The campaign will also be promoted at Shoppers Drug Mart, as the exclusive retailer partner, both in stories nationally and online at shoppersdrugmart.ca.
"Cheryl's light-hearted and approachable personality ties perfectly to our campaign as she takes consumers through her own personal journey to solve demanding hair issues.
