I am not at all familiar with this practice. In fact, I have never heard of it so my answer is obviously "no".

So no one in Switzerland does it, even Catholics?

I've read up on it, and apparently the Swiss Catholic church does it, though I don't know how many Catholics really get their ashes here. Since I'm not very familiar with Catholic traditions I have never heard about it. Getting ashes is not a tradition in the Swiss Protestant Church, with which I am more familiar.
