The LA Times is reporting that Vidal Sassoon has died. He came on the show last February and gave us our greatest headline ever.

Audio for Terry’s interview with Vidal Sassoon is now up. Enjoy!

The trend-setting hairstylist’s 69-year career is the subject of a new documentary. He explains how he created some of the most iconic looks of the 20th century, including the Geometric, the Wash-and-Wear and the Asymmetric 5-point. (Here’s a photo gallery of some classic Vidal looks)

Worst Haircut Ever?

Let’s purge our hair demons, friends. In honor of Vidal Sassoon coming on the show today, would you please describe your worst haircut ever? If you have a picture, you’re welcome to post a link to it (plus description.) I’m happy to reblog some of them later today. (This is me in 7th grade with an unintentional mullet.)

Also (75% sure) on the show tomorrow: hairdresser Vidal Sassoon. Maybe he’ll be able to answer why I had a curly mullet in 7th grade.
