LONG HAIR COST LARGE SUMS OF MONEY
Support A1+!Recently, a new type of business, hair sale, has emerged in Armenia. One can come across the following advertisement on the windows of almost all hairdressers'; “If you have high-quality long hair, we are ready to buy it at a high price”. The most striking is the fact that a lot of people apply for it.
67-year-old Seda Petrosyan lives with her disabled spouse in the village of Aramous, Kotayk marz. They can hardly make both ands meet with the 11 000 AMD, Mrs. Sead's pension. But Mrs. Seda doesn't sit with her arms crossed. She finds a new source of income every month.
“I used made baskets. Then I started sewing and knitting. But unfortunately my sight became poor now and I have given up knitting», says Mrs. Seda.
It is already two years Mrs. Seda has earned money in a new way. “As I have neither dyed my hair nor used a hair-drier in my life, my hair has high quality. Last year I sold it. I don’t complain as I got 50 000 AMD for it and we were able to live on the sum. Now I am going to sell my hair again”.
Thousands of women like Mrs. Seda go to the hairdressers’ of Abovian city. But the salons receive only part of them as the quality of the hair does not always meets the required criteria. One of the hairdressers said that young ladies have never applied to them with suchlike request.
