VIDAL SASSOON: the Master of geometrical haircut
Born January 17, 1928 (1928-01-17) (age 82)
Sassoon is a father of modernist style and has also been a key force in the commercial direction of hair styling, turning its craft in to a multi-million dollar industry.
In 1963, Sassoon created a short, angular hairstyle cut on a horizontal plane that was the recreation of the classic "bob cut." His geometric haircuts seemed to be severely cut, but were entirely lacquer-free, relying on the natural shine of the hair for effect.
Peggy Moffit's hair by Vidal Sassoon:
Sassoon was the real life inspiration for the 2008 Hollywood production, You Don't Mess With The Zohan starring Adam Sandler and Emanuelle Chiriqui, which is a loose interpretation of Sassoon's real life.
"The only place where success comes before work is a dictionary."
Vidal Sassoon
