At last, however, a means is provided of obtaining access to the house. The charmer and her chaperone enter a hairdresser's, and when they have left Rodolfi learns from the proprietor, a friend, that they have asked for a man to be sent to the house. Rodolfi persuades the hairdresser to equip him for the part, and, clad in the traditional white jacket and equipped with comb, scissors, &c, he sets out. It happens that the old lady, though she is the very reverse of attractive, does not despair of obtaining a husband, and having observed Rodolfi hovering near while she has been walking with her niece, imagines his attentions are meant for her, and when she recognizes him in the barber insists on his transferring his attentions from her niece to herself. The old lady is troubled with too little hair on the head and too much on the lips and chin. Rodolfi applies two mixtures, one a depilatory, the other a hair restorer, and, wrapping the old lady's head in bandages, promises to call and see the result in a day or two. When in due course he reappears the results are too awful to contemplate - the depilatory has been by mistake applied to the scalp, and has removed what little hair it possessed, while the hair-restorer has produced a magnificent growth on the lips and chin. The old lady's feelings can be imagined, but she turns out to be a good-natured sort, and not only forgives Rodolfi, but consents to his wedding with her niece, and, some time after, in admiring the promising growth on the head of their first-born, manages to forget the baldness which his father has inflicted upon herself.
