More quotes by Vidal Sassoon
If you look good, we look good.
Vidal Sassoon
So I was shampooing at 14. But I've always thought that had I the opportunity for an education, I would have been an architect. There's no question about it.
Vidal Sassoon
Take good advice, make sure it is good advice, then do it your way.
Vidal Sassoon
It's hard to give advice. There are so many people, how do you give major advice to a group of people, it's very presumptuous.
Vidal Sassoon
I was all about my thoughts, my work, my inspiration. I was always in hair.
Vidal Sassoon
If you don't look good, we don't look good.
Vidal Sassoon
Realizing our society as it is, without theology dogmatically telling us how we should react to it, and being humane toward that society, that is all that we're sure of.
Vidal Sassoon
You never argued with my mother. You couldn't win.
Vidal Sassoon
During the late '20s my father left us. My mother was in a complete hole with no money, and we were evicted.
Vidal Sassoon
Mary Quant is my favourite fashion designer.
Vidal Sassoon
We learned to put discipline in the haircuts by using actual geometry, actual architectural shapes and bone structure. The cut had to be perfect and layered beautifully, so that when a woman shook it, it just fell back in.
Vidal Sassoon
Women were going back to work, they were assuming their own power. They didn't have time to sit under the dryer.
Vidal Sassoon
If you get hold of a head of hair on somebody you've never seen before, cut beautiful shapes, cut beautiful architectural angles and she walks out looking so different - I think that's masterful.
Vidal Sassoon
I got a telegraph from my mother who said that my step-father had had a heart attack, come home and earn a living. So I went back to England and the only thing I knew to earn any cash was through hairdressing.
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
My idea was to cut shape into the hair, to use it like fabric and take away everything that was superfluous.
Vidal Sassoon
My mother had a premonition and she felt that hairdressing would be very very good for me.
Vidal Sassoon
If you have a sense of style and purpose and will you don't want to compromise.
Vidal Sassoon
If someone were to ask me, 'What's the number one thing, in essence, that you left behind?'... it was the teaching of others, so that they could take my work and take it further.
Vidal Sassoon
For me the working of hair is architecture with a human element.
