Women's History Month: Celebrating Female Hair Icons

Updated: Mar 9



As we delve into the vibrant tapestry of Women's History Month, Salon Evolve is thrilled to pay homage to the incredible women who have left an indelible mark on the world of hair and beauty. From timeless elegance to groundbreaking innovations, these iconic female hair influencers have shaped and revolutionized the industry, inspiring countless individuals along the way.



  1. Coco Chanel: A name synonymous with timeless style and sophistication, Coco Chanel revolutionized the fashion world with her iconic designs and elegant aesthetic. However, her influence extended far beyond the realm of clothing. Chanel's signature bob haircut, characterized by its sleek lines and chic simplicity, became an emblem of modernity and independence for women in the early 20th century. Embracing the mantra that "a woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life," Chanel empowered women to embrace bold new looks and redefine beauty standards.


2. Audrey Hepburn: With her grace, poise, and innate sense of style, Audrey Hepburn captured the hearts of audiences around the world both on and off the screen. Renowned for her iconic role in "Breakfast at Tiffany's," Hepburn's timeless beauty and iconic hairstyles continue to inspire generations of women. Her classic pixie cut, adorned with a delicate fringe, remains an enduring symbol of elegance and sophistication. Hepburn's effortless charm and timeless appeal serve as a reminder that true beauty transcends trends and spans the test of time.


3. Diana Ross: As a trailblazing diva and style icon, Diana Ross captivated audiences with her soulful voice and unparalleled stage presence. Yet, it was her larger-than-life hair that truly stole the spotlight. With her voluminous afro and glamorous curls, Ross redefined beauty standards and celebrated natural hair in all its glory. As a symbol of Black pride and empowerment, Ross' bold and fearless approach to hair continues to inspire women to embrace their natural beauty and celebrate their heritage.



4. Vidal Sassoon: While not a woman herself, Vidal Sassoon undeniably played a pivotal role in shaping the landscape of modern hairstyling and empowering women through his revolutionary haircutting techniques. With his geometric bobs and precision cuts, Sassoon transformed hairdressing from a mundane chore into an art form. His iconic five-point cut, famously worn by actress Mia Farrow in "Rosemary's Baby," revolutionized the way women approached hairstyling, offering a low-maintenance yet strikingly modern alternative to traditional styles.


5. Kim McQuillan: The founder of Salon Evolve, while not a 'textbook historical figure', still makes a difference in real women's lives every day. From her clients that have became friends to her employees who have become family, Kim created her dream and gives every woman she meets hope and inspiration to not only become the best version of themselves, but also to lead with strength and determination to live out your best, beautiful life. She believes in and gives permission to women to look and feel as absolutely beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside. Treat yourself to the finer things, she believes, if that's what makes you feel beautiful. A day-to-day inspiration.


At Salon Evolve, we are so excited to celebrate the rich tapestry of women's contributions to the world of hair and beauty. This Women's History Month, we honor the enduring legacy of these iconic female hair influencers who have inspired generations with their creativity, innovation, and unapologetic embrace of individuality. From Coco Chanel's timeless bob to Diana Ross' afro, their influence continues to shape and evolve the way we approach hair and beauty, reminding us that true beauty lies in embracing our unique selves.

Join us in celebrating Women's History Month as we pay tribute to these extraordinary women who have left an indelible mark on the world of hair and beauty. Let their stories inspire you to embrace your own unique beauty and celebrate the power of self-expression through hair.


Be brave. Be beautiful.
