The Woman with the Longest Hair

Human hair usually stops growing at 2 1/2-3 feet long, but at over 12 ft. 8 in., Diane Witt's hair is more than twice as long as she is tall. This extraordinary growth of hair is inexplicable: since 1981--when she last had it cut--it has more than doubled in length. Shampooing and combing her hair can take several hours at a time. To keep it out of her way, Diane normally wears it in a complicated braided arrangement piled on top of her head--held up by just two hairpins.
