Aevin Dugas, 47, has an afro measuring 9.84 inches tall, 10.24 inches wide and 5.41 feet in circumference, setting a record in the company's category for women.

Her most recent record was set in September, but she previously set the record in 2010 and 2021, Guinness World Records wrote on its website. In 2010, her afro measured in at 4 feet-4 inches.

Dugas has spent years growing her hair this length, she said. Some people think her hair should be longer since she has been growing it for so long, but there have been setbacks.
