Styling people is Penelope Cruz's second career

Penelope Cruz

Actress Penelope Cruz says she cuts her family and friends' hair.

The 43-year-old enjoys pampering women very much and thinks it can become her second career.

One of the biggest test of her grooming skills came when she had to get her best friend Salma Hayek ready for a red carpet event, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I like my career, but I love getting people ready for something because it's a part of me. I can cut anyone's hair no problem. I can do a blow-dry, I can put in rollers, I can wax somebody's legs. I could have another job," Cruz told Stella magazine.

"The power had gone at Salma's house and her make-up artist couldn't come, so she called me and said, 'You have to get me ready for this premiere', and I lit some candles and did her hair and make-up too. No one noticed that it wasn't done by a professional, so I was very proud of that," she added.
