Heck yes hairstylists are visual artists! (No I am not one...) How do you think Farrah Faucet & Jenn Anniston (just to name some popular hairstyles) hairdos became so popular? They didn't style it themselves!

I must say that i am quite shocked that hairdressers are not considered artist when we are taught in cosmetology the basic principles of art. And as an artist of many sorts i am qualified to say that this is blasphemy. Art comes in many forms and to dismiss the revolution of self-improvement in looks and style is like stepping back in evolution and disregarding facts that contain the foundation of all living things.
