At the age of six, Nilanshi Patel had her beloved long hair cut for the first time. She absolutely hated it and instantly regretted it.
That one bad hair experience resulted in Nilanshi’s vow to never cut her hair again.
Well, it’s been 10 years since she made her personal pact and her gorgeous dark, wavy hair has been growing ever since. It’s currently 5 feet, 7 inches long — making the 16-year-old from India an official Guinness World Record holder.
According to the 2020 edition of the Guinness World Records, the “real-life Rapunzel” now has the longest hair of any teenager in the world!
Nilanshi’s hair requires constant maintenance, but she’s more than happy to put in the time and care. Her supportive mother helps by massaging mustard oil into her locks every day. Other than that, the teen doesn’t use any special products or shampoos.
Her mother hopes her daughter will let her amazing hair grow longer so that she will be even more famous.
