I came home after a year and although my profession was only hairdressing, I knew I could change it.

I don't sort of sit in a chair and pompously feel proud of myself about all the things we might have accomplished.
Vidal Sassoon
You either create something and you keep it a secret and you die with it, or you can benefit the craft.
Vidal Sassoon
If you have a sense of style and purpose and will you don't want to compromise.
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.'

I'm a great jazz fan.
