This is actually comical to me! I can only hope the "person(s)" whom made this claim doesn't sit in their hairdressers chair & ask for our advice/expertise. In fact, now that I think of it, he/she is probably one of our "nightmare clients". The ones that think they can do our job and bring pictures of hair completely unlike their own.

I AM A VISUAL ARTIST!

Let's keep moving!

I'm a nail tech not a stylist but I believe hairdressing is a visual art. Visual art is what many of us in different parts of this industry every day. It takes education, skill, creativity and intuition. You see it in your minds eye and then you make it come to life. That is visual art.

Go Vidal!!! You deserve it. You taught us alot over the years. Thank you for that.

I'm a visual artist and I'm a hairdresser!!!

Hairdressing and the creation of styles is as much a visual art as any other medium. Vidal Sassoon was and continues to be a leader, an inspiration and a true artist.

I am a visual artist

hair stylists use their trained eye combined with unique techniques to passionately create and express looks and styles this is art.
