Hairstylist's are true artists, who not only create art form on hair and the face but we change lives every day.

As a hairstylist, I feel insulted being told my work is not considered art.

I am a hairstylist specialized in wedding. I have 3-4 brides who are getting married every weekend. For their big day, I put all my skill and soul to them to have the best on their most important day. Hairstylists are always part of the most important day of the client's life. We shape, color and create. Unlike other artist, we work based on the request which gives us restrictions. However we create within the boundaries, bring out the best we can. If we weren't the visual artist, everyone in the world would have same style. There will be no creativity, thought or soul have put in it. Hairstylist deserve apology. We are visual artist and we need you to acknowledge it.
