Best Hair Cuts Biography
From barbershop boy to Buckingham Palace to collect his MBE Trevor Sorbie is no ordinary hairdresser. Listed in Debretts and the International edition of Whoâs Who he is the hair stylist who has won more awards than Nicole Kidman, travelled more air miles than Richard Branson and satisfied more women than even a decadeâs worth of rippling Chippendales ever managed.
Pioneer of cuts and styling techniques such as The Wedge, The Chop and The Scrunch and innovator of professional haircare products for the high street, Trevor Sorbie has won the coveted British Hairdresser of the Yea r title an unrivalled four times.
His diverse catalogue of TV credits range from GMTV and This Morning to Call My Bluff, Whatever You Want, Through the Keyhole, Watchdog and the Channel 4 documentary, Faking It. He is the only hairdresser to have become so well known that his vocation has been a question on Who wants to be a Millionaire and The Weakest Link.
Contemporaries and competitors meanwhile hero-worship the fun-loving and unassuming Sorbie. A âbrilliant careerâ created by the combination of âoriginal thinking with superb technical abilityâ says Vidal Sassoon of his former Artistic Director. Anthony Mascolo acknowledges him as âone of the best hairdressers ever⦠both directionally and creativelyâ, while Patrick Cameron describes him as a âgreat mentor for many thousands of hairdressers.â
Charles Worthington, another household name, says âSorbie is the individual who changed the industryâs agendaâ, and Anthony Ma scolo credits him as having âdirectionally and creatively put England back in the forefront of hairdressing.â
Yet, in spite of his legendary status in a world renowned for its precious prima donnas and pretension, in spite of his celebrity clientele, the dozens of glittering awards, high profile TV appearances and column inches in the glossies, Trevor Sorbie remains true to his roots.
The son and grandson of barbers, he was born in Paisley, Scotland in 1949. But on dropping out of school at 15 his dreams were of becoming a famous artist rather than following into the family line.
On several levels he has achieved this early ambition; his one man shows are unique in the world of hairdressing. A natural entertainer he keeps the audience spellbound with his eloquence and charm. Audiences are mesmerised for up to two hours by the shows magical blend of cutting, long hair and avant-garde. When not on stage Trevor spends many hours working with top photographers to create stunning visual images that elevate hairdressing to an art form.
He has not lost the âcommon touch,â however. Refreshingly candid and down-to-earth, Sorbie firmly believes in what he describes as âreal hair for real people.â
At his prestigious salon in Floral Street, Covent Garden, he still charges only £200 for a cut â" a real snip compared to an appointment with many other leading hairstylists whose fees run into double figures and beyond.
His thinking behind this value-for-money pricing structure is that although his artistic work in an all-consuming passion and he greatly values his celebrity clientele, he also wants to create âwonderfully wearable styles for ordinary peopleâ.
The downside to such a conviction is that Sorbie devotees can face a wait of several months for an appointment with the man himself! However, he has gathered a talented creative team of stylists to work alongside him and they share both his philosophy and his approach to the art of hairdressing!
Meanwhile, all consumers can sample his trend setting product ranges including Trevor Sorbie Professional for women and the Mg (male grooming) for men. The ranges can be purchased in the UK exclusively from Boots and by mail order, as well as from his Covent Garden Salon.
