To exclude hairdressing from the "visual arts" is outstanding to me, the amount of creative talent and artistic flare that goes into creating a look with hair is incredible. I am proud to be a visual artist within the hairdressing industry.

Vidal was the beginning of everyone understanding of the talent, work ethic, and vision needed to be a hairdresser. Beyond that miracle he revolutionized the business world with his innovative marketing skills. Shame on the queen, her hairdresser should quit and after a few photos she will see what artists we are!!!
