A hair stylist, also known as a hairdresser is someone whose occupation is to cut or style hair to enhance and, or to change a person's image.

Those results are achieved using hair coloring, hair cut and hair texture techniques, based in an innate artistic ability.

Hairdressers are often known as Hair Stylists, Technicians or Beauticians.

In various countries the synonyms change and the usage frequency depends on the normal colloquialisms of the area.

In the US the term Technician and Hair Stylist usually dominate while in English Empire countries like the UK, Australia and New Zealand Hairdresser seems to be the norm.

It's anybodys guess why the term hairdresser was created but rumor has it that it started in the later centuries of English Aristocracy as hair became a LARGE part of the culture.

Dressing the hair was a rich often noble part of ones birth right in the upper classes of England.

Today almost everyone has access to a hair stylist and it is one of those professions (like undertakers) where the hair supply never runs out.
