Hair stylist are most certainly Visual artists. We sculpt with hair instead of marble and we paint with hair color instead of oils and acrylics.
To think that we are not artist is preposterous and ignorant. To say these think is like saying that Picasso didn't understand composition.

Can't think of a person who changed aesthetics in the last 100 years than Vidal.

Everything about being a hairdresser is visual... In my opinion it is the most visual artistic craft of its kind!

It is sad to me, that there are those " out there" in the world that do not think that Hair stylists are less than. But on the positive side..there are those " out there" in the world that do regard Hair stylists as the artists that they are. 41 years and cutting.

I was a creative director for Vidal sassoon Academies.... Worked for that company for 20 years!
I'm an artist I'm an craftswoman I'm an architect I'm an sculpturess I'm a designer..... That should qualify for visual art!
I'm appalled at the decision made!

Hair IS art!!! And its VISUAL. I am a hairstylist and ARTIST. I have painted on a canvas and have painted hair as my canvas. If art is in the eye of the beholder than us hairdresser say it is art. Funny because most of us have some background in art. I have art in high school art honors and in college and studied Art History and Appreciation! Please reconsider your thoughts and educate yourselves on our field. Ps: Go ahead and do our job if you think art doesnt exist in our industry!
