A senior man enrolled in a beauty class to assist his ailing wife.
The doting husband, who did not want to be indentified, walked into the Delmar College of Hair and Esthetics in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada inquiring about taking some potential hair and makeup lessons, reported the Winnipeg City News.
The man explained to Carrie Hannah, Delmar College's school director, that his wife was losing her vision, and was struggling to curl her hair and would often burn herself. So he wanted to learn to do hair and makeup so he could take care of her.
Hannah said, "He genuinely cared. He knows his wife always cared about her appearance, and he wanted to help her.”
"We taught him how to do volume curls on short hair, how to protect her skin from being burned and we even taught him to put on her mascara," read a Facebook post showing the man attempting his newly acquired cosmetology skills.
Hannah said this was a first in her 31 years in the industry, and that it was one of her best days as an instructor.
She told CityNews, "He just genuinely warmed everyone’s hearts and just really feel good. We really needed some cheering up, and he sure did it.”
