Synopsis

“Our profession is an aesthetic,” a tough Berlin beauty salon owner tells hair stylist Kathy Konig (Schmeide), an obese woman who has been sent by the unemployment office to interview for what appears to be a certain job. “You are not aesthetic.”The brutally frank employer could just as well have been referring to the film itself, a competently directed but silly work crammed with lowbrow humour that tips the delicate balance between art and commerce way towards the latter. In spite of Schmeide’s engaging performance, The Hairdresser is as light as hair that has been overblown dry. (FILMAFFINITY)
