The record holder has not cut her hair since childhood. Now that their length is already more than two meters, she still said goodbye to her curls. For the first time, a resident of India Nilanshi Patel got into the Guinness Book of Records in 2018 as the owner of the longest hair among teenagers!

A 16-year-old girl’s curls were 170.5 cm long at the time. The girl had to prove her dominance two more times. Her curls reached 200 cm for the last time in July 2020. However, in the middle of April, an Indian woman debuted a short hairdo that stunned the entire world. Nilanshi pondered what to do with her cropped hair as she prepared to bid farewell to her place in the Book of Records.

There were numerous possibilities, including donating them, selling them at auction, or donating them to the museum. The girl’s mother, Kaminiben, persuaded her that because this hair was produced to inspire people, it would be appropriate to display it at a museum. According to the girl, it all started with a failed trip to the hairdresser.

The specialist gave the baby such a terrible haircut that she refused to go to hairdressers. Her mother was not against her daughter’s decision — the woman herself is not averse to walking with long hair, they write on the website of the Guinness Book of Records.
