To NOT acknowledge hairdressers as "Visual Artists" is to deny the master pieces that were created over the centuries by the wig masters and hairdressers alike. One only needs to look at the Vidal Sassoon collection over the years and dare to say this is not "Visual Art"

Hair, face, and the whole body is a canvas. Us hair artist can not be excluded and be told that our work isn't art. Then makeup and fashion might as we'll not be art too. Anything creative is art. Us hairstylist can change a whole person image with a cut, color, style etc. This is not right . I take it even more offensive because I'm going to Sassoon certified.

As a hairdresser, we have to be able to look at each client that sits in our chair and determine what hairstyle will be suit that individuals Face shape and features. We must be able to invision a result that will be both satisfying not only to the client but to be human eye in general. No two clients are the same. Our clients are our walking, talking canvases.

Vidal deserved that recognition
He was a voice for all talented hairdressers who have this amazing gift to make people feel good about themselves.

Obviously we are visual artists. It should not even be in question. And Vidal is the epitome of this.

Being a hairstylist is an art, where we never stop learning, and we have the privilege of being able to be extremely creative with each client that walks into our salons, and for these reasons and many more I LOVE doing what I do, and I can't wait to see how much more I will learn and grow in this Industry of Hairstyling ARTISTS!!

To say a hairdresser is not a visual artist is asinine.
