Description
Vidal Sassoon's life story is one of remarkable transformation from an impoverished childhood to global fame. As the father of modern hairdressing, he revolutionised the industry with his sleek and stylish cutting techniques. Born into poverty in the East End, Vidal Sassoon's early life was marked by hardship and struggle. However, it was this very background that drove him to succeed, and he went on to become one of the most iconic figures in fashion history. His memoirs offer a fascinating glimpse into his life, from his time at the Spanish & Portuguese Jewish Orphanage to his experiences fighting Fascists in London's East End and later in Israel. This autobiography is a rich and moving account of Vidal Sassoon's extraordinary career, spanning his rise to fame as a hairdresser, entrepreneur, and global brand.
