<\/p>\nDubbed \u2018The Wolf Man,\u2019 Jes\u00fas Aceves has faced hardships throughout his life due to his unique ailment called hypertrichosis, <\/p>\n
which he was the second member in his family to be diagnosed with. This meant that hair covered nearly every part of his body, including his face. <\/p>\n
He was a circus attraction at an early age due to his attractiveness, and although he eventually started a family, he opted to shave his face and wanted a regular job to be near them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
His family has more than thirty individuals who also have the same illness, according to a 2015 BBC piece.<\/p>\n
Early on, Aceves lived in Loreto, Mexico, where he was shunned by the locals due to his appearance.<\/p>\n
He began working when he was just 12 years old. Selling tickets for a Ferris wheel was his first employment; <\/p>\n
he afterwards worked at a gaming stall. A proprietor of a circus had noticed him at that time.<\/p>\n
When he was thirteen, he and two of his cousins received an offer to work with the circus. The owner assured him that he would provide them with food, <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
shelter, and a high salary. He disclosed, however, that despite having a cozy place to stay and abundant food, they are \u2018always locked up.\u2019<\/p>\n
In any case, he claimed that he didn’t regret working in the aforementioned circus because it was a \u2018decent job\u2019 and that he was an entertainer.<\/p>\n
When he encountered difficulties while working abroad, things didn’t go well, and he turned to booze as a lone comfort. Thankfully, he managed to escape that circumstance and turn his life around.<\/p>\n
Intimate details about Jes\u00fas Aceves’ life were revealed in a documentary by A True Story. His three children, who shared their father’s ailment, were shown in the video.<\/p>\n
Sadly, none of them were immune to the harsh realities or hurtful comments made by others; his eldest daughter Karla, <\/p>\n
who was abandoned by her mother, disclosed that she would receive derogatory names from people, and some even advised their children not to make friends with her.<\/p>\n
As the filmmaker Eva Aridjis stated in the film Chuy, The Wolf Man, \u2018it’s less socially acceptable for a woman to be very hairy,\u2019 <\/p>\n
she also mentioned in the BBC piece that it’s difficult for her as a woman. The non-hairy partners who fathered the women’s children have mostly abandoned them. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
On the other hand, men are viewed as more masculine and typically have a large number of girlfriends.<\/p>\n
Because her father abandoned her after she gave birth to their child, Aceves’ daughter was living in Texas, USA, as a single mother as of 2015.<\/p>\n
After deciding to leave the circus, Aceves sought to find a respectable position where he wouldn’t draw attention <\/p>\n
from the general population. But because of his physical attributes, it was difficult for him.<\/p>\n
Later, in an attempt to find a solution to his issue, he and his spouse decided to shave his face.<\/p>\n
In the documentary A True Story, he was seen having a barber shave his face. At the conclusion, <\/p>\n
his dramatic makeover was revealed, and he appeared entirely different without any facial hair. Unfortunately, his condition will need him to closely monitor his unusual hair growth.<\/p>\n
It was unclear what job he ended up with despite his appearance in other interviews later in the film. <\/p>\n
