All visual artists unite. Sorry that is a feeble excuse after everything he has done for industry and charity. I am not a hairdresser but look forward to a public apology

This is disgraceful! Vidal was/is a genius and our craft is very much visual art.

Hairdressing is a creative visual occupation Ridiculous to state that it is not a visual trade

Vidal has helped my career progression no end with inspiration and imagination. Every person walking down the street would look different if it wasn't for Vidal. If that's not visual art I need a dictionary

Vidal Sassoon not only created visual arcitecture for his clients, but maliated a new standards as to us hairdressers work. He recreated the styling and exposure of hairdressing and made it a new industry which has stayed.vidal really was a fantastic monarch. Yours sincerly, a young hairdresser.
