If Wearable Art is not Visual, nor is the haircut that changed Mia Farrows life.....
I am a creative Hairstylist, and many learn our trade through touch, theory and most importantly Visual.
I am Outrage, and disappointed in England currency decision.
Next time you go to a reputable salon.....the scissor and craft our in our hands. Best of luck!
Canadian Champion,

WE ARE VISUAL ARTISTS AND OFTEN I FIND WE DO NOT GET THE RECOGNITION WE DESERVE IN MANY FIELDS OF THE INDUSTRY! Many times our hard work is overlooked while designers and models get the credit and were seldom mentioned. #RESPECTTHECRAFT #STANDUPTOHARDWORK

Hairstyling is CREATING something whilst using your EYES, hands, etc. I don't even understand how this is a real thing. Vidal is an innovator!

As far as a visual artist, Vidal Sassoon revolutionized the art of Hairdressing! With his blunt edge and angular styles, modern hairstyles were born!!!! Speak with any hairdressing professional, and ask "who was the one person who changed the way we dress hair" MR. VIDAL SASSOON!
For your contest to be taken seriously, you must include this great talent!!!!

I strongly disagree with hairdressers not being visual artist's. Let Vidal Sassoon be on the new bank note, he has inspired generations of Visual Artist's!

Of course hairstylists are visual artists. We sculpt hairstyles & haircuts. We create color concepts on non-blank canvases. Our works of art walk the streets of every city in the world.

The father of the modern hairdresser is unmistakably a artist. And clearly its visual.

Hairdressing is a visual art, what they do is grab a head and do colors, textures cut and styles the diffrecr between a painting artiest is they have a paint brush and a canvas well they have tinting brushes , electrical equipment and hair as their canvas it's a complete outrage to say it's not a visual art you look at hair visual and the things that can be done with the hair is the Art the outcome is their masterpiece.

Hairdressing is the biggest form of artistic pleasure. We transform and meet people so much happier. With out good hair to be no good covers on the magazine
