TAIYUAN, China, Nov. 4 (UPI) — A real-life Rapunzel unfurled her locks on the stage in a Chinese park and had her hair measured. It was a staggering 11 feet long.
The 60-year-old woman showed off her impressive hair Sunday for spectators at a park in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, and revealed the results of the annual measuring of her hair length.
The woman said her hair has grown nearly 19 inches since it was measured last year.
The woman said she hasn’t cut her hair in 18 years and she is hoping to make it into the Guinness Book of World Records, which currently lists China’s Xie Qiuping as the record-holder with hair measuring 18 feet and 5.54 inches long.
