Beautician Mortician | Siam Ruam Jai Makeup Service for Corpses in Thailand (Video)

Whether headed to cremation or burial, the dead have final moments with their loved ones. 

One team of volunteer morticians in Bangkok does its best to help the deceased look their best before departing this world. Meet the members of “The Last Incense Stick” in Coconuts TV’s latest feature, The Beautician Mortician. 

These mortuary cosmetologist volunteers apply makeup on the deceased before their funerals, without charging their relatives or loved ones a single baht. 

“Wouldn’t it be better for the family to use that money for merit-making for the deceased?” volunteer Taweesak Taweesub said.
