Before there was John Frieda, Frederic Fekkai or Sally Hershberger, there was Vidal Sassoon. The iconic British-born Israeli hairstylist rose to fame in the ’60s with his succinct bobs and angular cuts (shown above), and became one of the first hairstylists to launch an eponymous chain of salons and line of products. His rise from touch-up trims to timeless cuts is chronicled in the new film Vidal Sassoon the Movie, which opens February 11. Intrigued? Watch the just-released movie trailer after the jump.

I remember the 60s when his famous short do was popular. my mother was a hairstylist and I begged her to get my hair to look like that I was a HIT all the girls in the neighborhood wanted their hair the same way so there was my mother cutting hair while the rest of the others sat around and socialized waiting anxiously for their turn I must admit my mother was a HIT very good memories from that time
