    Default Vidal Sasoon Died;

    As a show of respect, you are asked to wear your hair at half mast tomorrow.

    funny, but I bet nobody actually read his obituary.

    IN 1948, he left his home in London and went to Israel to fight on the front lines for Independence (on israeli's side, he was a Jew)

    hairdresser indeed.
    from Wiki

    At the age of 17, although having been too young to serve in World War II, he became the youngest member of the 43 Group, a Jewish veterans' underground organisation. It broke up what it considered Fascist meetings in East London.[9][ The Telegraph refers to him as an "anti-fascist warrior-hairdresser" whose aim was to prevent Sir Oswald Mosley's movement from spreading "messages of hatred" in the period following World War II.[10]
    In 1948, at the age of 20, he joined the Haganah (which shortly afterwards became the Israeli Defence Forces) and fought in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, which began after Israel achieved statehood.[9][11] During an interview, he described the year he spent training with the Israelis as "the best year of my life," and recalled how he felt:
    When you think of 2,000 years of being put down and suddenly you are a nation rising, it was a wonderful feeling. There were only 600,000 people defending the country against five armies, so everyone had something to do.[7]

    I had no idea he was such a badass until I read an article yesterday on the Blaze.http://www.theblaze.com/stories/thre...vidal-sassoon/

    His most famous line..."If you don't look good, we don't look good."

    Toss one back for him getting rid of the beehive ladies doo, or because he was an anti-fascist. Either way here is to one of the good guys.

    RIP, toss one back for the old days when even the barber hairdresser was tougher than most people today.
