We met the woman famous for her Rapunzel-style hair, and she told us her story

In all the princess stories, if there’s one that is admired for her long, beautiful golden hair, it’s Rapunzel. In real life, there is a woman who has devoted almost her entire life to taking care of her beloved strands so that they stay healthy and don’t stop growing. Although it may seem like a very difficult and tiring task, she enjoys everything she does to make her hair look like this, and her 180 centimeters of hair makes her happy and completely fulfilled.

Alena Kravchenko shared with the awesome.club how her fascination with having long hair began and some of the things she does to wash, comb and keep it perfect.

When she was little, Alena started to like long hair a lot, as she noticed that long braids that went far beyond the lower back caught people’s attention. Short, dyed hair never interested her, so she never thought about changing it, either in length or color. Her family has always supported her and continues to support her in all her decisions, and her beautiful hair is a source of pride for everyone.

Thanks to her dedication and all the care she gives to her hair, Alena is known as the “Ukrainian Rapunzel”, as she seems to have come out of a princess story. She is 1.67 m tall and her hair is 13 centimeters longer. “Right now, the length of my hair is what makes me most satisfied and I feel 100% good. If it grows even bigger, it would be perfect and I would love it, but if that’s your limit, that means that measure will always be with me. It makes me extremely happy,” she stated.

Although many women fight a daily battle with their hair which, in comparison to this one, looks short; Alena says she has no trouble taking care of hers, as the whole process of keeping it healthy has become a series of activities that are part of her routine. She washes it once a week and considers that it is not necessary to do it more often because, during these 7 days, it stays clean and silky.

To take care of her hair, she doesn’t ask for help and the washing process takes a few hours, although the time increases if you decide to apply a little oil or a treatment before starting to wash it. Many think she takes hours to brush, but thanks to a few products she uses to make it easier, Alena says it only takes 5 minutes, and since most of the time she braids her hair, her hair barely tangles. Also, she brushes it twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Usually, she prefers to keep her hair up to keep it from getting tangled or getting dirty. Whether she’s going for a walk, to a meeting or a walk, she likes to do a braid or a ponytail to show off the size of her hair and it’s very rare to let it down. When people realize its extent, it is practically impossible to hide their surprise and enthusiasm. Some approach her to tell her nice things and many are anxious to know if it’s real or how many years she hasn’t cut to this length.

Some women may wonder what the secret is to keeping that hair flawless. The reality is that Alena doesn’t use a hairdryer and prefers to wait for it to dry naturally; she never uses a straightener and only sometimes applies fixatives for certain hairstyles. In addition to the professional products she uses for washing, she uses natural products such as oils or masks, and doesn’t like to try different products so as not to compromise the healthy appearance of her hair.

Regarding length, he said that he only gets the ends right twice a year, with the intention of letting his hair continue to grow, and shared that a few months ago he cut 15 centimeters to help keep it in the best condition, but assured that he didn’t. there is nothing that can separate you from your lover. “Some people offered large sums of money in exchange for my hair, but I never doubted my desires and aspirations; only I know how to deal with it and I can handle it alone quietly. My hair has a healthy lifestyle… no abuse and no stress,” she stated.
