| Nigerian wig maker, Helen Williams, creates the world’s longest handmade wig |
She spent eleven (11) days and two (2) million Naira making the wig.
According to guinnessworldrecords.com:
After constructing the underlay with wig-cap netting and black fabric attached to a bicycle helmet, she completed the hairpiece using 1,000 bundles of hair, 12 cans of hair spray, 35 tubes of hair glue, and 6,250 hair clips.
Helen has been working as a professional wigmaker for eight years, producing anywhere from 50 to 300 wigs per week.
Helen said: “Finding the materials to make the longest wig was not an easy task.
“My experience as a wigmaker helped a lot.
“I have trained hundreds of students and have made thousands of wigs.
“At some point, I felt exhausted.
“However, friends and family encouraged me. I did not want to let them down, so I maintained my focus. The outcome is the longest handmade wig in the world.”
