Wow! What a great day of education we had this past Monday!
Not just a cutting class but also a history lesson. What's the lesson? Just this....nothing changes when you are dealing with classic shapes and the foundation of what we create each day in the salon. The fundamental principles of design will always remain the same. What makes a shape unique is the person wearing it and the artistic edge of the one designing it.
We took a walk through the history of Vidal Sassoon and the beautiful classic shapes that are now icons in our industry. The bob, the wedge, the firefly and on and on. All shapes we borrow from in 2010!
There is no other feeling like when you create an absolutely perfect haircut! It was fun to see our younger team members be introduced for the first time to these iconic shapes and those of us who are "more mature" had fun taking a walk down memory lane!
Whether in their pure form or as inspiration, Vidal Sassoon pioneered the way for the designs we create today. And all I can say is....Thanks!!
