For everyone it was Vinicius. Only Vinicius. At most, Vinicio the hairdresser. For 43 years Vinicio Battaglia was the best-known hairdresser in Seriate. “And once he retired he didn’t want to withdraw from his passion and for about ten years he went to shave and hair the Capuchin friars of Borgo Palazzo where he also went to Mass every morning” recalls his daughter Michela. Which also adds another curious anecdote of the intense professional life of father Vinicio, the hairdresser of Seriate, that is when the parish priest of Seriate Monsignor Angelo Paravisi, at the end of the Mass, while he was chatting with some faithful, urged them to go to Vinicio “because even the Lord wants you to be beautiful”.
