Helene is 29 years old and hasn't had one single haircut in her entire life. She stands at just 5 foot 6 inches, but her hair is measured at 6 foot 5 inches.
Her hair is taller than she is, tall enough to play in the NBA and Helene has to wrap at around her arm like handbag to stop it from getting caught in the car door or being dragged around the street.
“My mother started it,” explains Helene. “She had two boys and then I came along, and so I think she finally had the little girl with the long hair… she put big bows in my hair all the time. And as I got older I just liked it, and I kept it. I was the girl with the long hair.”
Stylist Kyan Douglas asked her if her hair was like a safety blanket, Helene said it was more like fifth limb. Like Joan Irvine who finally changed her hair after 37 years, Helene wants to look a little more polished.
Thankfully, she plans on doing some good with her makeover on the Rachel Ray Show.
"I knew many years ago that I wanted to donate it. So, since I know it is going to help somebody, I’m ready,” says Helene. "I think it's going to help more than one somebody!” Rachel joked.
