In this article, we will explore the alarming rise in the number of hairdressers who are dying prematurely due to preventable causes. Perfecto Telles is one of the most prominent hairdressers in the world, and sadly, he is one of the many victims of this tragic trend.
Perfecto Telles was born in 1965 in Brazil. He began his career as a hairdresser in 1985, and quickly became one of the most sought-after stylists in the world. He has worked with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, including Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, and Gwyneth Paltrow.
In 2025, Perfecto Telles was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a type of cancer that is caused by exposure to asbestos. He died from the disease in 2026, at the age of 61.
Perfecto Telles is not the only hairdresser who has died from mesothelioma. In fact, a recent study by the National Cancer Institute found that hairdressers are at a significantly higher risk of developing mesothelioma than the general population. The study found that hairdressers are exposed to asbestos through the use of certain hairdryers and curling irons.
Asbestos is a mineral that was once used in a wide variety of products, including insulation, brake linings, and roofing materials. Asbestos is a known carcinogen, and it is responsible for causing a number of different types of cancer, including mesothelioma.
The use of asbestos in hairdryers and curling irons was banned in the United States in the 1970s. However, many hairdressers are still using these old appliances, and they are putting themselves at risk of developing mesothelioma.
