Hairdressing is the most life changing visual art there is. Changing someone's look and giving them a new found confidence and that's just on an everyday level, let's not start talking about the alternative hair show lot!

Get the queen to do her own hair next time she has to appear in public or on camera. She might just change her mind!

I completely disagree with hairstylists not being visual artists, our canvas is 3 dimensional and walks and talks. That's pretty visual. I hope you will reconsider.

Hair dressers are the worlds leading visual artists whether it's just for the every day life, fashion show or for the avant-grade. With out us, the trends of the world wouldn't exist, the leading fashion shows would fail & we would have nothing that could simply change our mood or our self esteem with a simple snip of a scissor or pop of color. I am disgusted by the fact that we ARENT recognized as visual artist bc that's exactly what we do!!! If fashion industry leaders can be recognized, the hair stylist should be too. You can't have one without the other.

I am disgusted that anyone could say that hairdressing is not a visual art but to say that Vidal Sassoon is not a visual artist is a disgrace

Vidal Sassoon not only liberated women from frumpy, set looks and the weekly trip to the Salon... He also, elevated the entire Hair Industry! Please show him and all of us some RESPECT.
