Let's be honest: growing your hair can sometimes feel like a full-time job. (Thank goodness for hair extensions, am I right?) But one woman on Instagram has officially put us all to shame with her 42-inch-long hair that reaches down to her legs. Prepare to be extremely envious.
As noted by Marie Claire, Anastasiya Sidorova is basically an IRL Rapunzel. Sidorova, who lives in Russia, has accrued over 390,000 followers on Instagram, likely due to her flowing red hair in photos that look like they came right off the pages of a fairy tale.
And the 23-year-old's Insta aesthetic is something to admire in and of itself. In one photo, Sidorova is pictured sitting atop a cliff overlooking a body of water. In another, she stands in front of a waterfall, with her hair floating around her. Yet another photo shows the redhead rocking thick braids with a look that definitely reminds me of Anna from Frozen. TBH, I'm already obsessed.
However, according to The Sun, Sidorova has faced some struggles along the way to obtaining her real-life Disney Princess status. Five years ago, she received an androgenetic alopecia diagnosis — a condition that can cause hair thinness and balding. But, as the outlet explains, Sidorova worked diligently with her doctors in order to care for her hair, and she has since become a trichologist herself — AKA a doctor that specializes in the scalp and hair. With that, her IG is filled with tips for growing your hair as long as hers...but you'll have to run 'em through Google translate, unless you can read fluent Russian that is. Personally speaking, I'm going to cancel the rest of my afternoon and scroll through her Instagram for the remainder of the day.
