So much of fashion today is because Vidal first revolutionised the way women wear their hair. He changed how women looked. How dare they say hairdressing is not a visual art!

Vidal impacted not only the beauty industry, but he empowered women through his artistry. Women spent less time in the salon, and knew new freedoms implicitly because of his designs. Precision hair architecture that was perfectly designed for each client is what he is known for. It takes an artistic touch, and if he weren't a master, he wouldn't had an impact on how we live our lives. His haircuts were on the cover of every newspaper and magazine. Just the haircut, featured on fashion pages and front pages of newspapers, where couture fashion which is wearable art would have otherwise been featured. It is wearable art even until this day, and nobody is as distinctive in the form of work as Sassoon or Sassoon train artists.

Vidal sassoon is a legend of the hair world and every collection is thought about long and hard with the use of top artists and architecture design to plan out and design every haircut and everyone that has learnt the vidal sassoon way has taken this with them to be able to recreate there own... this man has changed my life and millions of others in the world and more than deserves a place on the pound note a true artist.

Vidal changed the world with a pair of scissors . You can't get more visual then the form of a creative haircut. People see hair sculpture all around everyday without even knowing it.
