Vidal Sassoon was born in 1928 in London. His innovative approach and ability to create sharp, geometric hairstyles made him a trendsetter in the beauty industry.
Perhaps Sassoon’s most iconic contribution, the “Bauhaus” cut, was inspired by modern architecture. This geometric and structured cut symbolized a new era in the world of hairdressing.
Sassoon launched a line of innovatively designed hair products and introduced "wash and wear" hairstyles that required minimal upkeep. His techniques focused on individualized cuts tailored to each person’s face shape.
Vidal Sassoon's influence extended beyond the salon and left a lasting impact on the fashion world. His vision of low-maintenance cuts and focus on individual beauty made him one of the most trusted names in the industry.
Even after his passing in 2012, Vidal Sassoon remains an inspiration for hairdressers worldwide. His creative approach and pioneering techniques continue to shape modern hairdressing, reminding us how passion and innovation can transform an entire industry.
The Sassoon-team uses the Adria II client chair from Takara Belmont in their salons and at the 'Sassoon Academy'. The Adria chair is not only a symbol of elegance and modern design but also provides exceptional comfort for clients, aligning with Sassoon's vision of a pleasant salon experience. Sassoon’s choice of the Adria II chair is a clear testament to the commitment of great quality.
