So fashion isn't a visual art ? Unbelievable Vidal Sassoon Deserves this. The Queen of England recognized his talent... Yet the Bank can't.

Art is whatever represents social movement. Hair both represents and shapes social movement and is created by people who work harder than most artists.

Honestly it doesn't surprise me that this happened this way, Hairdressers are always overlooked, but when it's time for someone to get dolled up they give their hairdressers the center of attention.
