More quotes by Vidal Sassoon
From my point of view, there is a tremendous amount to be said for secular humanism.
Vidal Sassoon
A working woman could save a few shillings a week, and then every five weeks she'd come in and we'd cut her hair. She could shampoo it under the shower, swing it and dry it off or just let it dry by itself. It changed the lives of many young girls who'd never had the opportunity to be styled like that before.

You never argued with my mother. You couldn't win.
Vidal Sassoon
Hair excited me. As the old ways - backcombing, rollers and rigidity - went out of the window, I started to feel the possibilities in front of my eyes.
Vidal Sassoon

Vidal Sassoon
It's not recognized by enough people as a worthy craft.
Vidal Sassoon
For me the working of hair is architecture with a human element.
Vidal Sassoon
I'll never forget one morning I walked in and I had a hell of a bruise - it had been a difficult night the night before - and a client said to me, 'Good God, Vidal, what happened to your face?' And I said, 'Oh, nothing, madam, I just fell over a hairpin.'
Vidal Sassoon
I just consider being one of the luckiest people in the sense that creativity came to me and it flowed.
Vidal Sassoon
If you look good, we look good.
Vidal Sassoon
Hairdressing in general hasn't been given the kudos it deserves. It's not recognised by enough people as a worthy craft.
Vidal Sassoon
I was born in 1928 and by 1931 the Depression was beginning to mount.
Vidal Sassoon
As stylists, we're groundshakers and daymakers. I was always in hair.
Vidal Sassoon
Judaism is important to me from a tribal point of view.
