A 92-year-old who has not cut his hair for 80 years now has dreadlocks five yards long because he believes he will die if he chops his locks.

Nguyen Van Chien, from the southern Mekong Delta region, Vietnam, follows a faith that prescribes to leaving everything that a person is born with untouched.

Chien's fifth son, Luom, helps him to manage his locks (pictured together) and he too believes in the connection between hair and mortality, having seen a man pass away after trying to re-attach his hair with string.

The 92-year-old manages his dreadlocks by bundling them under an orange turban in order for them not to interfere with his day-to-day living.



Chien, who worships nine powers and seven gods, believes it was his calling to grow his hair, which he bundles up under an orange turban.

He was required to trim it when at school but left after third grade and decided never to cut, comb or wash it again.

Wow.
In the human body, hair is the fasted growing, only second to the bone marrow.

This isn’t ideal...

If he’d left everything natural untouched, then why cut his finger nails?

I wonder how much that thing weighs. Once hair is braidable then there's nothing else to use it for. Busta Rhymes cut his dreads because they weighed so much that his neck and back started hurting.
