For 13 Years, This Real-Life Rapunzel Has Refused To Cut Her Hair

Some girls prefer to have a long hair but many of them will readily admit that it can be hard maintaining such a style. Besides, proper hair care can be a challenge when you have long locks. So sooner or later, some of these girls decide to cut their hair a bit shorter. Others, however, simply maintain a certain length and just trim their hair from time to time.

Well, Dashik Gubanova Freckle is someone who has clearly defied the odds.

“You remind me of a Barbie doll. I love everything about you. Keep it up.”

In a post by Mirror, we discover that Dashik started growing her hair back in 2003. She also admits that she does have plans of chopping it off in 2017 once she reaches her goal– she wants her hair to reach her toes.

Some of her fans suggested that when Dashik does that, she should donate her hair to be made into wigs. She responded to these comments in an Instagram post by writing: “This post is for those who say that I should donate their hair for wigs. In 14 years, I cut a scythe. And donate hair for wigs.”

Aside from achieving Instagram fame, Dashik has likewise been featured in many websites because of her amazing mane.
