I am a Visual Artist!

I am a visual artist

Vidal 100 percent deserves this recognition

We are artists!

Legend to hair

I am a visual artist Cosmetologist/ barber

I am a hairstylist who hair is art not a number or thing we are real artist that make beautiful masterpieces everyday! No can just put a color on and be perfect it takes time to get the right color for and individual! That we formulate and come up with!

Visual arts isn't just painters, sculptors and the like but the incredible vision hair stylists have is phenomenal. It IS visual art and should be treated and recognized as such.

Of course Vidal is a visual artist! Please reconsider and put him on the list. He inspired me to learn the ART of hairdressing.

Hairdressers are visual artist , get it straight

Please reconsider Vidal. He was an icon to the visual beauty industry.

My craft is my passion and my Art it comes from within....my purpose is a God given talent that I can only be grateful for...as an Artist and a professional Hairdresser my eye has been trained.... My Artistry should be recognized and must be recognized

As hairdressers we are some of the most passionate creative and artistic people you will ever meet especially when it come to our craft we always take great pride in what we do !

Ask them to define visual artists and see what they say, they will eat every single word xo

#Iamavisualartist vidal is known world wide and is a inspiration to all types of people. The art he helped craft lives on today and has transformed tenfold creating movement colour texture bold or subtle statements. Living visual art.

There is a very good reason why hair is called our crowning glory, not only is it the fashion accessory we wear every day, but is often a work of art

Was lucky enough to be trained and work in a Sassoon salon, his work was amazing and changed the world of hairdressing for the better
