Photos: Meet Chinese Woman Who Wants To Have Her First Hair Cut In 16 Years; Hair Measures 2.9m!

Ni Linmei, 57, shows off her long hairNi Linmei is from Taiyuan in northern China's Shanxi Province
She spends a whopping two hours every day washing and drying her jet black hair - and normally winds it on top of her head to keep it out of the way. Ni Linmei, 57, claims she has not had her hair cut for 16 years - and it now measures 9ft 6in (2.9m) long. But she is now considering going for the chop because her locks are so inconvenient. Hearing this news, neighbours in her home town of Taiyuan in Shanxi province, China, have been clamouring to have their photograph taken with her before it is too late. More of the story and PICTURES after the break ...

But although her hair is impressive, Ni Linmei is still no match for fellow Chinese woman Xie Qiuping. She holds the current Guinness World Record, with her hair measuring 18ft 6in (5.6m) when measured in May 2004. The woman has been growing her hair since 1973 from the age of 13.
