98-Year-Old Barber Has Been Cutting Hair For 75 Years

NBC News highlights a barber in Rhode Island that has been cutting hair for 75 years…and retirement isn’t on the radar! Salon owner Zak Nassaney says he loves people, and cutting hair at 98-years-old “keeps you alive”!

He’s owned his current salon for 25 years and is an inspiration to his fellow stylists working alongside him. And he stumbled into his career during WWII when he joined the Navy at 17-years-old. The barber on the boat passed away, so he volunteered to take over despite never cutting hair before. His older brother was a barber, so he said it was in his genes.
