A celebrity hairdresser has been told he will die from the same deadly disease that killed three of his family members in one year. Jaye Edwards, 30, owns his own haircare brand, Jaye Haircare, and is the founder of eight Edwards and Co hairdressing salons across Australia. In 2017, Mr Edwards lost his father, sister and cousin to motor neurone disease while his grandmother, her sister and several of his cousins have also died from the disease. Mr Edwards said the gene will become active in his body at some point but he doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for him. Instead of focusing on the disease, Mr Edwards is thinking about his legacy and how he can 'elevate' the hairdressing industry while giving opportunities to people who want to enter the field.
