The world of hairdressing has lost a legend, but Trevor Sorbie's legacy will live on in every fabulous cut! ⚡✂️

The world is mourning the loss of Trevor Sorbie, the iconic celebrity hairdresser, who passed away peacefully at the age of 75, surrounded by family and his beloved dog. Sorbie, born in Scotland, gained international fame in the 1970s with his revolutionary creation of the wedge cut, a style that became a symbol of chic and sophistication. With a career that spanned decades, he was more than just a stylist; he was an artistic visionary who transformed the hairstyles of the rich and famous, from Grace Jones to Dame Helen Mirren, adding a touch of glamour to their personas.

Just last month, Trevor made a heartfelt appearance on television, candidly sharing his battles with terminal bowel cancer, which he had been diagnosed with earlier this year. His bravery and vulnerability struck chords with fans and viewers alike, as he expressed his hopes and fears about dying before Christmas. Despite the grim prognosis, Sorbie maintained a spirit of creativity and kindness that had long defined his work, making every appearance on shows like ‘This Morning’ a celebration of resilience and style.

In addition to being a hairstylist, Trevor Sorbie was an ambassador for compassion in the beauty industry. He not only taught the art of hairdressing to countless aspiring stylists but also gave back through various charitable endeavors. His commitment to using his platform for a greater good included raising awareness for cancer, showing that even in the face of adversity, one could make a significant difference. With his passing, he leaves behind not only a legacy of extraordinary hairstyles but also an enduring impact on counseling and support in the community.

As we remember this talented stylist, let’s take a moment to appreciate the wedge cut – that masterpiece that allowed ordinary mortals to strut down the street feeling like stars. Did you know that the wedge cut was often credited with empowering women in the workplace during the 1970s? It quickly became a symbol of liberation and independence, favoring those who sought a blend of fashion-driven pizzazz and practicality. Trevor Sorbie’s influence will forever be felt in salons across the globe, reminding us all to embrace our unique styles!

Trevor’s spirit remains a guiding light for many in the hairdressing world. Beyond just a snip, snip here and there, he was a storyteller with scissors, weaving tales through every curl and coat of color. Next time you sit in the stylist’s chair, remember the legend who paved the way for fabulous hair and fabulous lives!
