    Celebrity hairdresser Vidal Sassoon has died at his home in Los Angeles, aged 84.

    A police spokesman said officers went to the stylist's home on Wednesday morning to confirm the death. He said Sassoon had died of natural causes.

    Sassoon is regarded as one of the best-known hairdressers of his generation.

    He is credited with revolutionising haircuts in the 1960s, and developed a popular line of hair products under his name.

    Poor man.
    Loved by so many as he always gelled well with everyone.
    A man of true style.
    I could wax lyrical about him.

    Puns aside: it's pretty impressive that he spent his teenage years running around London getting involved in street brawls with Oswald Mosley's blackshirts.
