It’s a touching story as we love them at the moment. A 79-year-old Canadian decided to go back to school for a while to learn hair and makeup. But this new passion was not born without reason.
The Delmar College of Hair & Aesthetics Red Deer, in Canada, received a rather special visit a few weeks ago. A 79-year-old man, who preferred to remain anonymous and not give his first and last name, decided to take a hairdressing course. The goal ? Help his wife who is starting to have more and more difficulty combing her hair because of a sight problem.
Shortly before he took the initiative, she burned her face trying to use her curling iron to curl her hair. Neither one nor two, to help her “ pretty Woman », As he told the students and teachers of this school, he decides to take lessons. For a good hour, he learned to handle the curling iron to perfection, thanks to a student of this school of aesthetics. He also took the opportunity to learn how to use mascara in order to successfully apply it to the eyelashes of his wife, who also has difficulty performing this task which requires precision in the gesture.
Carrie Hannah, the principal of this Canadian school explained to the British news agency SWNS that the appearance of this woman “ has always been something she is proud of and it is important to her, therefore important to him “. His story has also moved the members of the school. Very proud of his wife, he showed them pictures of her and praising them her beauty, but also her intelligence.
The courage of this man is remarkable, because it is not easy for an elderly person to learn new gestures, and especially to handle heating devices and tools which require a lot of thoroughness. “ He’s going to be 80 in May, and I think he’s also a very brave man to have gone to hairdressing school and asked for hairdressing lessons. I don’t think a lot of men would do this », Added the director.
A few days later, he returned to this school, this time accompanied by his wife, and everyone could see that he was putting his new skills to good use. A touching story that also brings tears to our eyes!
