A 15-year-old teenager from Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh holds the record for the longest hair. Guinness World Records (GWR) took to YouTube to share Sidakdeep Singh Chahal’s video. In the video, Chahal explains how as a kid he was unhappy with his long hair and “begged” his parents to get rid of it. However, as he grew up, he began to take care of his hair and realized that it was part of who he was.

Chahal, who follows Sikhism, has never cut his hair in honor of his religious beliefs. Currently, his hair has grown to a length of 146 cm (4 ft 9.5 in).
How does she take care of her long hair?
In the video, Chahal also talked about his hair care routine. He shared how his mother helps him wash and comb his hair. “It would have lasted all day if it wasn’t for my mother’s help,” he said.
When not washing or drying, Chahal usually ties his hair in a bun and keeps his head covered with a dastāra (turban) – as is the custom among followers of Sikhism.
Here’s a video of Chahal showing off his long hair and explaining his record:
Chahal says people were shocked when he first told them about his record. “They thought I was pulling their leg and it took a bit of evidence to convince them,” he told GWR.
He is also “thrilled” that his record will be part of the Guinness Book of World Records in 2024.
