If there's any career more honorable of art would be hairdressing.

Insulted that such a visual art has taken so long to be accepted as that.

Hairdressing is a very visual trade!!!! We look in the mirror and create shapes and a spectrum of colour, 3D at that!!! Artists paint on a sheet of paper!!! Also we change lives!!!
