Renu has the world’s LONGEST HAIR and she shared her best tips!

Renu Dhariyal from India has beautiful long locks that trail behind her as she walks, just like Rapunzel!

She officially holds the record for longest hair on a living person (female), as her stunning hair measures an unbelievable 271.50 cm (8 ft 10 in) long. To put that into perspective, that’s almost as tall as Robert Wadlow, the tallest man EVER, who stood at 272 cm (8 ft 11.1 in).

Do you prefer long or short hair?

The best part is, Renu has no intention of gatekeeping the secrets to having long, healthy hair, as she wants to help anyone who looks up to her and wishes to grow their own! 

In fact, Renu is famous on the internet for sharing her beauty tips with other women.

Explaining how her hair got so long, she told us: “I have been growing my hair continuously since 2015. In Indian culture, long hair is considered a symbol of extreme beauty and tradition, which is what inspired me to grow it so long.

“I have never cut my hair since 2015.”

Did you know this about Indian culture?!

Renu’s hair is not only super long, but also incredibly thick and shiny, and she ties it into an elaborate plait when she needs to keep it off the floor.

Of course, hair this long can sometimes be hard to manage and take care of!

Renu explained: “It takes a lot of patience to maintain long hair. I spend hours washing and detangling my hair.

“My secret is completely natural. I stay away from chemical products.”

She only uses chemical-free homemade hair oils and shampoos that she makes herself!

So here is the secret: have lots of patience, dedicate time to take care of it, and keep it as natural as possible!

She also told us: “I want to give a message to the world that with determination, consistency and connecting with your natural beauty and culture, you can achieve any big milestone.”

Do you agree?

Congratulations, Renu, you are Officially Amazing!
