Celebrity hairstylist Vidal Sassoon dies at home in L.A

FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda

Sassoon, who lived in Beverly Hills, was born to Jewish parents in London in
1928 and spent six years in an orphanage after his father abandoned the
family.

In 1948 he left Britain to fight with the Israeli army in Israel’s war of
independence. On his return, he worked for the celebrated London hairdresser
Raymond ‘’Mr Teasy-Weasy’’ Bessone before opening his own Bond Street salon
in 1958.

Neil Cornelius, 36, whose salon now occupies the same site as Sassoon’s first
solo venture, said the world had lost a “hairdressing legend”.

He spoke about how the global star had come to his Neil Cornelius 1st Floor
salon last year to see his former base.

“It is very, very sad because I grew up in the East End like Vidal and from
the age of 11 I wanted to be a hairdresser like Vidal,” he said.

“I remember the first time I met him. I have washed the hair of Princess
Diana, I have met Nelson Mandela, but meeting Vidal Sassoon topped all of
those.

“I know it sounds crazy but I could not sleep (before) the first time I met
him. He was a hairdressing legend.”

A statement issued on behalf of the Sassoon family said: “It is with
great sadness that we announce the passing of Vidal Sassoon CBE, who died
this morning at his home in Los Angeles surrounded by loved ones.

“The 84-year-old hairdresser was born in 1928 and sadly lost his battle
with leukaemia today.

“He became the most celebrated hairdresser in the world having begun his
career as an apprentice during the Second World War, going on to
revolutionise an industry through his iconic haircuts, salons, schools and
product lines.

“He will be greatly missed by his wife of 20 years Ronnie, his children,
grandchildren, family and friends.”
