This 47 year old woman who is in her 3rd marriage has been keeping this dreads for 25 years now. Doctors have advice her to cut her hair off for health reasons, but it doesn't seem like she is ready to cut it off.
Facts about the dread

The dreads locks is about 25 years old
The dreads weighs about 39 pounds (17.7kg)
Despite the bilateral mastectomy and chemotherapy she underwent in the late 1990s, her hair didn't fall out.. What a miracle!
She became the first person to obtain the Guinness World Record for longest dreadlocks in 2008, and broke her own record with a strand measuring 19 feet, 6 inches a year later.
