Vidal Sassoon The Movie is a portrait of revolutionary hairdresser Vidal Sassoon. If you grew up in the 60s through the 90s and ever had a haircut, then you are familiar with the geometric Bauhaus-inspired hairstyles he pioneered in the ’60s and his “wash and wear” philosophy, he liberated generations of women from the tyranny of the salon. Here, we follow Sassoon’s life from a Jewish orphanage in London to his rise to the pinnacle of his craft.

The documentary has a limited release: February 11, 2010 in New York and February 18, 2010 in Los Angeles.
