St Mary Magdalene 3 (Patron for Hairdressers) from A Blessed Call To Love, Ireland.

Saint Mary Magdalene, the Patron Saint of Hairdressers, is a revered figure in Christian tradition. Born in the 1st century in Magdala, a town on the Sea of Galilee, she is celebrated for her transformation from a life of sin to one of devotion and faith.

Mary Magdalene’s life took a dramatic turn when she encountered Jesus Christ, who exorcised seven demons from her, freeing her from spiritual oppression. Grateful for this miraculous healing, she became one of Jesus’ most devoted followers. She witnessed his crucifixion, burial, and was one of the first to witness his resurrection, making her a prominent figure in the Easter narrative.

Hairdressers have chosen her as their patron saint due to the story of her washing Jesus’ feet with her tears and drying them with her hair, a symbol of humility and devotion. This act of selflessness and care resonates with those in the hairdressing profession, as they, too. Offer their talents to enhance the beauty and well-being of others.

Throughout history, Saint Mary Magdalene has been a source of inspiration. For those seeking redemption, forgiveness, and a new path in life. Her unwavering faith, devotion, and love serve as a guiding light for hairdressers. Reminding them of the transformative power of their work in making others feel beautiful and confident.

In her honor, hairdressers invoke her intercession for guidance, creativity, and compassion. As they strive to bring out the inner beauty of their clients. Embodying the spirit of Saint Mary Magdalene in their daily work.
