She began her love affair with hair in swinging London, when she went to get her first Vidal Sassoon haircut. That is where she met hair legend Roger Thompson (the first world art director of Vidal Sassoon in the 1960’s). Thompson became her hairdresser and mentor. Raynier was trained in London and New York by Thompson at Barney’s where she worked for 10 years and learned to master the art of precision cutting.
