There are a couple of ways to customize the header section in a UITableView. For instance, if all you want to do is change the text, you can do so in the attributes inspector while making sure your TableViewSection is selected:

However, if you want the ability to do customizations such as text size, tont, capitalizations - any customizations inherent to UILabels, you'll need to override this method from the UITableViewController:

  override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) {
    let header = view as! UITableViewHeaderFooterView
    header.textLabel.textColor = UIColor(red: 243/255, green: 153/255, blue: 193/255, alpha: 1.0)
    header.textLabel.font = UIFont(name: "Helvetica Neue", size: 18)
    header.textLabel.text = "About Us"
    header.textLabel.frame = header.frame
    header.textLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Left
  }

For example, in the code above, I took the header that was passed as a parameter and configured the textColor, font, text, alignment - really anything you can do on the UILabel can be done here.
