Woman with 8-foot-long hair shoots for record

Asha Mandela, a 46-year-old woman in south Florida has dreadlocks measuring 8-feet, 9-inches long.



She has submitted here hair lengh to the Guinness Book of World Records for the Longest Dreadlocks, the first entry in a new category.

It takes one bottle of shampoo and one bottle of conditioner every time she washes her hair and can sometimes take days to fully dry after she washes it.

Mandela said she "used to wash it three times a week. Now I do it once a week. It's very tiring. Sometimes I don't have the energy."
