Vidal Sassoon snubbed for new £20 note as "Hairdressers are NOT Visual Artists"

I am a proud hairdresser!!

Without hair stylists the world would be am ugly place, this is why we are very important visual artists!

We work hard for our craft. Every single person I send out of the salon Is a work of art. And attention to detail is so so important or your work will look sloppy

Being a hairstylist and not being called a "visual artist" is the most insulting thing I've heard in my entire life. For someone to say Vidal Sassoon isn't a "visual artist" is the most ridiculous phase I've heard in my life. As a hairstylist, learning from Vidal Sassoon and being inspired by his work, this is the most offensive thing I have ever encountered in my career. I take pride (as well as ALL other stylists) in our work and how we make people feel about themselves. As a Visual Artist myself, I can't believe this is even an issue.
