Time To Cut These Insane Fairytale Hairstyles

This Rapunzel business seems to be the big thing in China. Some women are wearing their hair at lengths of over 4 meters.

I am sorry to be so blunt, but I can’t hold it back: this look needs to go. I think these people are holding onto some weird concept of beauty, which the rest of the world doesn’t seem to share: just cut it!

Never mind the impracticalities of having hair longer than your waist, it must be a real pain to wash, comb and move with. I imagine it would hurt like hell when people stand on it too. In my opinion, it is a scary looking fetish gone way too far. I think most of you would agree, no? Otherwise, please help me, inform me of this weird fascination with growing your hair freakishly long.

The woman in the video above is probably the most scary thing I have ever watched. I hope I don’t get nasty nightmares about it.
