Do you know the fairy tale character Rapunzel? Alia Nasyrova, 33, from Latvia, could easily pass for the real-life version of this beloved character. She truly embodies the incredible charm of Rapunzel with her amazing long hair and 250 cm.
Growing hair and styling it has become a part of Alia’s life and she even makes a living from it. For the past 20 years, she has dedicated herself to maintaining beautiful hair, inspired by the long-haired characters in her favorite fairy tales.
On her website, Alia explains her dream to explore the world and discover other long-haired beauties. She believes that hair is a work of art and wants to share its incredible beauty with the world.
Maintaining this type of hair is not an easy task. Alia spends an hour a day washing and drying her hair. When she goes out, she carries a 22-kilogram backpack filled with liquids such as shampoo, conditioner and various hair accessories. She also works out using a yoga mat to keep her brunette beauty healthy and strong.
Alia’s husband, Ivan Balaban, loves her beautiful hair, but takes special care to keep it intact. He made a habit of giving her a lot of space, almost like hugging a wall. Moreover, he treats her hair with great respect, he even talks to her pigtails, sometimes asking her to move them a little.
Managing very long hair can be difficult. Alia recalled an incident in her childhood when someone accidentally stuck gum on her hair and she had trouble cutting off part of her hair to remove it. These events demonstrate the complexity of maintaining a special hairstyle.
Although Aaliyah holds the title of “The Real Rapunzel,” she does not hold the record for the longest hair. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, this distinction belongs to the Chinese Xi Qiuping, whose hair does not exceed 5.5 meters in length.
Thank you Aliya Nasyrova for your dedication and patience in growing beautiful long locks. Managing hair of this length is definitely a challenge. What do you think about super long hair? Are you on a mission or prefer a shorter and lighter hairstyle? Tell me what you think!
