Vidal Sassoon 1928 - 2012



I was so sad to hear that the amazing Vidal Sassoon has passed away at the age of 84. He was a true revolutionary a man who changed the hair and fashion industry of the 1960s. His signature bob/geometric style has never gone out of style along with the 5 point cut. Before Sassoon it was all shampoo and set he changed it giving a new look for the decade younger and edgier with the “wash and go” where there was less care or styling needed allowing women to get ready quicker and have less fuss when looking after from cut to cut but still have an amazing shape – which looks like art. Working with designer Mary Quant he gave the haircut to match the change in attitudes




Model: Grace Coddington 










RIP Vidal Sassoon – "the man that changed the world with a pair of scissors"
