"I would have liked to retire at 60, but my wife was sick and I needed to pay for the care home," he said, which cost more than 2,000 euros a month."I'm not grumpy getting up" to go to work, he said."We have a few who continue late in life, but 90 years old is exceptional," union president Christophe Dore said.
Many of Amilhastre's customers call him Achille, after his father who founded the barber's shop in 1932, giving it his name and then teaching his son the profession."During the war, German police came to find my father to groom a captain who had broken his leg," Amilhastre said."We were scared because they used to say that anyone who went up to Beauregard never came back," he said.
"People started looking for work further afield, so we had to adapt and stay open later in the evening," Amilhastre said."People were scared. They no longer asked to be shaved and when we did, we were petrified there'd be a cut, that someone would bleed and the virus would be passed on to the next customer," he said.
