The British Invasion of the 1960s was characterized by a number of
iconic looks including the mini skirt in bold primary colors, perfectly
sexy cat-like eye liner punctuating multi-layered pairs of long, false
eyelashes and an asymmetrical haircut made famous by the hairstylist
Vidal Sassoon. Creating geometric, short, angular bobs on armies of
beautiful young women all over London made him a household name across
the world and created a dynasty of hairdressing that remains a
multi-million dollar industry today.
The Vidal Sassoon Salon of South Beach offers the
signature, tailored looks at a full service (regularly priced) beauty
bar and also serves as an international teaching academy for aspiring
Sassoon stylists. Prices are set according to the cutter's rank from
Level One Stylist up to the Salon or Regional Director. A range of
pampering beauty treatments is available for both men and women.
The Sassoon Academy offers brave young women the
opportunity to serve as hair models as well as student subjects for both
cut and color. For an $18 investment, a training stylist crafts a brand
new look under the watchful eyes of an experienced instructor. While the
transformation may take up to 3 hours, the final result promises to be
dazzling. Choose from classic (traditional) or creative (edgy) styles
and watch what happens! Reservations are required for either the regular
salon or the academy and are available 7 days a week.
