65.1 ACADEMY
The new collection from Sassoon celebrates the core fundamentals of the brand; assured craftsmanship, incomparable technique and innovative imagination.
To mark their 65th anniversary, the International Creative Team have delved into the rich Sassoon legacy. The iconic shapes of the late sixties and early seventies, where the looks segued from the first wave of geometrics into longer, flowing looks inspire the concept of lines and layering, very much the backbone of this collection.
The colour techniques feature geometric panels that are coloured with shades that contrast with natural bases. Sometimes these panels are monochromatically toned other times in graduated layers of fuchsia and violet producing prismatic effects.
“The collection is styled in a very particular way.” Says Sassoon International Creative Director Mark Hayes, “We wanted to show that geometry in cut and colour works when it is loose and unstructured as well as when it is groomed and controlled.”
65.1 ACADEMY INSPIRATION

The graphic simplicity of the looks belies the intricacy of the technique responsible for their creation, with the classic Sassoon shapes being reassessed. The iconic A-line bob is reinvented with understated reverse layering and a gently draped interior. The box bob is revamped with a Jago balance, gentle undercutting and a slightly frayed edge. Even the ultimate five-point cut is given a new energy with detailed hairline work and internal texture, this collection is overflowing with ideas.
Colours flow through the cuts with energy and vitality, accentuating and delineating the lines. Oversized geometric shapes of chevrons, arrows, right angles and repeating squares are all used through the surface of the shape to dramatize the effect. A kaleidoscopic palette that runs through cyclamen, magenta, purple, yellow and green shines out of bases of dark chocolate brown, cool blonde and natural copper. The Sassoon colour concept of Shape and Balance is taken to new heights in this collection.
