Anyone who creates beauty by using their hands, is a visual artist!

How anyone can say hairdressing isn't a visual art form is ridiculous! Hair is our canvas and it is how we express ourselves. We use everyday objects as inspiration to create art on people's heads, creating amazing colours shapes and textures. Whilst making our clients feel amazing.

This is sooo stupid that they would think hairdressing is not a visual art. We need to see whats already there in order to create something new or enhance what the client already has. I am extremely sad that they would say this about our industry.

I trained and learnt the craft at The Vidal Sassoon Academy in London and I am saddened that this great influential man has been cast aside even though so many clearly feel he would be worthy to grace our countries money.
To say Hairdressing does not fall within the visual arts category is criminal and I emplore the Bank of England to rethink this middle age conclusion.

We support visual artists around the globe. Public praise should not be limited to celebrity, math , science and humanities careers. Where would any of us be without those we trust with our hair ?
