Rita Rusk dead: Scots hairdressing pioneer Rita Rusk dies aged 75
29.12.2022 - 14:27 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Scots hairdressing icon Rita Rusk has died at the age of 75.
The Glasgow-born stylist was hailed as a "pioneer" and "trailblazer" in the industry after starting out in the 1970s, counting celebrities and royalty as clients throughout her career which spanned more than four decades.
Rita was the first female and the only Scot to be named British Hairdresser of the Year, an accolade she received in 1987 along with her husband at the time, Irvine Rusk.
She was also named Best Hairdresser in the World four times by French fashion magazine Metamorphose.
Described as “one of the greatest” hairdressers in Scotland, tributes have poured in from devastated friends across the industry.
Alan Edwards, who owns Alan Edwards Salon in Glasgow's Merchant City, shared a heartbroken tribute to the stylist on Facebook saying the hairdressing world had been "blessed to have such an incredible hairdresser leave her mark".
Alan added: "Rita Rusk was a hairdressing pioneer in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and 00’s.
“Rita was the first female, and the only Scot to be crowned British Hairdresser of the Year alongside Irvine Rusk. Together they challenged the status quo in hair! Innovating, designing, creating and inventing were only a few of the gifts Rita gave to our industry.
“I had the great pleasure of working with the Rusks for 10 years and will be forever grateful for the opportunity and skills I learnt from them. So many great hairdressers have come out of the fantastic Rusk stable and have passed on so much creativity and knowledge to many other hairdressers.
“Our industry was very blessed to have had such an incredible hairdresser leave her mark. Rita lived a life and left a legacy. RIP Rita Rusk."
