Nilanshi Patel hopes to inspire people and add more world records to her name.
Nilanshi Patel from Modasa, Gujarat, got a haircut and a video of it is now going viral on the Internet. Why, you ask? This is because Nilanshi's is no ordinary haircut. This is the first haircut she is getting in 12 years and the 18-year-old is saying goodbye to the tresses that fetched her three Guinness World Records. Her most recent record was in July 2020. With a length of 200 cm (6ft, 6.7 inch) hers was the longest hair on a teenager. She held records in the same category in 2018 and 2019 as well. Now, Nilanshi has decided that it's time to say goodbye to her long hair. Right before her haircut, she said, "I'm so excited and a little bit nervous because I don't know how I will look in the new hairstyle. Let's see what happens, but I hope it's going to be amazing." According to a blog post by Guinness World Records, Nilanshi decided to grow and groom her hair after a bad experience at a hair salon. "I got my hair cut, a really bad haircut. So, then I decided that I won't cut my hair. I decided that when I was six and have not cut it since," she was quoted as saying.More Related News
