If photography falls in the realm of visual arts, hair is a key component to what a photographer is able to capture on a artistic level.

Hair is most definitely a God given talent and is art. It takes creativity and the hands for it not just another operating computer

I couldn't agree more Vidal Sasoon was an incredible influence on my career I was trained by three Sasoon Master craftsmen and feel he would have more than satisfied the required criteria to be considered I am saddened he was turned down

As a young starting artist in the hair industry it is sad that people think this way about hair not being an art. Our body is a canvas and the way we portray our hair or even our over all look is art. We are using art to represent who we are as humans.
