1974 The Wedge by Trevor Sorbie for Vidal Sassoon

the first haircut with a brushed back approach was don by Darrill Benson in August 1972, (if you cut it forward it will go back!) on a model called Jacky at a "soirée" in Bond street. followed by a cut from Christopher Brooker called Gigi that was all brushed back . Then Christopher Brooker did the haircut called THE FALL on model Moira Swan.
Fire-fly was cut in April 1973. Then came the DEFINITE immage of the WEDGE by Trevor Sorbie.

marion crousebillie@gmail.com The reason that the Dorothy Hamill cut is not included is that She never had her haircut with Sassoons. It was a copy years later than the original

this display does not show the Dorothy Hamill wedge. I have not found it anywhere except for a very few old photos of her back in 1975 or 1976. and except for a few of the older stylists who remember, it has disappeared entirely. it is so disappointing to go through old salon magazines, and see style after style, and not find that cut, and for awhile it was the only cut women would have.

Gudrun ,
bitte lesen und die andern Köpfe suchen in der wunderbarenListe. Du erkennst, wieviele Stylisten (wie in der Architektur) große klare strenge,so schöne Arbeit an Frauenköpfen geleistet haben! Die Vision,die Hingabe an den Kopf der Person, die Geduld...~~ 2/3 Std operative Präzision!! Einfach grandios. Inge
