DRESDEN, Germany -- Professional hairdresser Frank Doehlen offers his customers a unique service: they can have a massage from a ball python named Monty.
Ninety percent of Monty’s body consists of muscles, the massage is done by contracting them constantly.
Doehlen doesn’t charge for the massage but expects a small contribution or a little donation for the python’s food.
Regular customers often find animals in Doehlen’s hair salon but not everyone is delighted being confronted with a real python.
"It is quite heavy and warm, I thought it would feel cold. Well, it lies around the neck, that’s all," said one customer, Hanna Haubold.
