Who has the world’s longest hair?

The world’s longest documented hair belongs to Xie Qiuping, who is from China, at 5.627 m (18 ft 5.54 in).  That’s as tall as a two story house!  So how long does it take to grow hair that long? She hasn’t gotten a hair cut since she was 13 years old!

So how fast does hair grow? Hair typically grows at a rate of about 0.5 inches per month, or 6 inches per year! Growing your hair this long takes a lot of patience!
