Hairdressing is a visual art and Vidal Sassoon is a legend that deserves to have his name on the list.

No way in the world should hairdressing NOT be considered a VISUAL ART!!! It is a CRAFT and an ARTFORM that takes years to master and even then is continuously evolving and growing and being pushed further creatively! I have been a hairstylist for 18years and I am more passionate about my craft and art than ever before! I AM ABSOLUTELY A VISUAL ARTIST!!!!

Hair dressing is a visual art. If you aren't wearing what you consider art, it's time to find someone new to do your hair.
